Seven Days to Payday!

Richard @jaideemai (351) • Thailand 26 Aug 17

I really need to buy so many things this payday that it was driving me crazy but I can put off some of the basics! 1. My computer is so old, it was close to dementia. It would take too long even to make a comment here; time...

My 30% real salad!

Richard @jaideemai (351) • Thailand 26 Aug 17

Sometimes I feel like eating healthy. I don't know why but it does happen. I call this my 30% real because the crab sticks were imitation as well as the mayo. But at least the lettuce was genuine!

Cold Cereal

Richard @jaideemai (351) • Thailand 26 Aug 17

I have not had cold cereal in decades. I don't know what inspired me, but this morning I bought a single serving pack and a small milk (which I also rarely drink) and had it for breakfast. All I can say is boring! Cereal is not...

Checked out the people I follow!

Richard @jaideemai (351) • Thailand 26 Aug 17

It took me about an hour and a half, but I went to all 38 people I follow and responded to all of their new discussions. I guess this is a good thing but when I have 100 or more, I better have my lunch ready!

Bubble juice!

Richard @jaideemai (351) • Thailand 26 Aug 17

One thing that i don't remember in the States was getting juice in a bottle and having "bubbles" in it. They really aren't bubbles at all but I don't really know what they are. The bottles are written in Japanese so I guess that...

Richard to Pilot...time to turn left?

Richard @jaideemai (351) • Thailand 25 Aug 17

I have flown as a passenger thousands of hours..about 50,000 a year until I retired. I remember the first time I was in a 747 and they had installed the seat monitors and was enjoying the navigation screen while flying from Los...

Insomnia Game

Richard @jaideemai (351) • Thailand 25 Aug 17

Sometimes I have difficulty falling asleep. While I used to turn and turn, I discovered this little brain game. I concentrate on something I like to do and imagine I am doing it. The images are never clear but my mind lets me...

Day off!

Richard @jaideemai (351) • Thailand 25 Aug 17

After walking and going out partying last night, I have zero energy today. So most of my day has been watching YouTube and napping. Only nine days to payday and I will be baking again! I think the first thing will be a pork...

Day Two Walk!

Richard @jaideemai (351) • Thailand 24 Aug 17

Well, I just got home. Although I told myself I would only do one hour, it actually lasted two. I am really enjoying this leisurely walking and although it is tiring, it is nice. On the way home, I stopped by one of the places...

What's on my mind?

Richard @jaideemai (351) • Thailand 24 Aug 17

I love that question on the discussion page. There are so many things on my mind at one time, much too many to put down at one time. Here are some highlights (or lowlights). 1. Got to take my walk this afternoon, but not as long...

DNA EVERYTHING?

Richard @jaideemai (351) • Thailand 23 Aug 17

I was watching a forensics show the other night and it seems as it is very close, if not here already that DNA will be able to print out an entire body of a person. Do you think this is going to far? I wonder what will happen if...

First Day Walking!

Richard @jaideemai (351) • Thailand 22 Aug 17

This morning I got out of bed about 6 am and by 7 was on the road! It was my goal to walk one hour, but it actually lasted two hours! I did take two short coffee breaks and at the moment I am tired, but after not seeing the city...

Marmalade?

Richard @jaideemai (351) • Thailand 22 Aug 17

I have a neighbor downstairs who is from Hungary. He is a nice guy but since his English is not great (better, however than my Hungarian) it takes some time to communicate, but we do manage. He likes to cook things out of his...

Tomorrow morning I start my walking program again.

Richard @jaideemai (351) • Thailand 22 Aug 17

When I first came to Thailand I would walk about two or three hours every day. I lost a lot of weight and was looking pretty good. Then I just stopped and now, I have gained too much weight again. So tomorrow, unless it rains,...

My mL goal

Richard @jaideemai (351) • Thailand 22 Aug 17

I am here mainly for friendship, sharing and learning. The money, if I ever reach the minimum will be a nice extra but not all that important. My goal is to post five discussions daily, but that does not happen to often. I guess...

Noodle spices

Richard @jaideemai (351) • Thailand 22 Aug 17

Every time I have noodles, there is a large assortment of spices, dry and liquid to add to make the dish just right! And even when I carry it home, I still get a little pack of condiments. I never used sugar with noodles before,...

Funny looking duck!

Richard @jaideemai (351) • Thailand 22 Aug 17

This duck (I classify it because of the feet) landed in the courtyard a couple years ago. It didn't stay long, but I have never seen another one. Anybody know what it is?

Another Day!

Richard @jaideemai (351) • Thailand 21 Aug 17

Over here it is another beautiful day. The sun is shining but not too hot and it just feels good. I have some (not mine) myna birds that occasionally build a nest in the rain gutter of the building next door. There were two of...

Haunted Hotel

Richard @jaideemai (351) • Thailand 20 Aug 17

If you have the opportunity would you stay overnight in a haunted hotel? I think I would if the ghosts that showed up were known to be friendly, but if they were known to be angry, I'd stay elsewhere. Pic: Wiki commons

First phone I used.

Richard @jaideemai (351) • Thailand 20 Aug 17

I was looking at my smart phone a few minutes and remembered the first phone I ever used. I don't remember how old I was but it was pretty young. I had to stand on an old wooden box and wind up a crank to get the operator. Then...
