Plans for today (2025)

popped to the shop earlier, I went to make my cheesecake yesterday to realise I'd not bought any quark, and since I had started preparing the fruit I'll make it later.

Just had a coffee and a second breakfast - I feel I'm turning into a hobbit!

Coming around to normal feeling so no big plans. Moved laundry up a day since I had a bad fever all night 2 days ago. Supposed to storm pretty big time this evening so batten down all things blowable.
Really, really glad you are feeling better. I know Pippi is a good nurse, though. Hopefully Jessica didn't get sick, or maybe she steered clear of you for a few days?

Thank you. We both got it since we work at the same place. She's a bit younger and didn't get it as bad and we steered clear of each other to minimize effort. We're both on the mend now. 👍
 
Today I participated in a Holi festival; that's an Indian festival celebrating colours, love and spring.
I'd submitted an estimate for food about a month ago. 2 weeks ago, they said the estimate had been approved, but then last Friday , I decided to check and just pay them a visit. Hmmm - " we're happy to have you here but we haven't got any money left in our budget to pay you"
Oh-oh - typical, perhaps, Venezuelan situation. I decided to participate anyway, because it was an opportunity to make a few $$, one way or another.
Made some Indian snacks which I decided to give away, rather than sell, and take a load of chutneys, hot Indian pickles, curry powder and garam masala to sell.
1) Sold plenty. 2) Made some new contacts. 3) Had a great afternoon.
As Michael Caine once said "when you face a difficulty, turn it around to your advantage".
