The sun WILL come out!

We have had some really nasty cold weather here in Thailand. First we had a couple of days of rain (which we really needed). It was a very cold rain which is unusual all by itself. I had to go out to the post office and my Thai friend took me on his motorcycle. We had to stop and get gloves as the air on our hands was like knives. But I wanted to get the letter sent so that I could pay off a tax debt (and then I discovered that the postage had more than doubled since a month ago! Bad trip!)

The rain drove the temperatures down and then we had a couple more days with no sun so the temp got down to 12 degrees celsius (54 fahrenheit). That may not sound so bad, but Thai houses are not prepared for that kind of weather. Ours has no heater and the kitchen is made so that there iare a lot of places for the air to circulate from inside to outside. We were sleeping with pants, sweatshirts and jackets on.

But finally today the sun burst through the clouds and let me tell you it was a welcome sight. Probably by tomorrow we will be back to feeling like we live in the tropics.

All of this, plus the recent death of my 19 year old cat have take a toll on my motivation for the past two days and my site health is sinking fast. So I've got to get back to publishing some more posts. I need to be like the sun and start shining forth! Mightily!

One bright spot in all of this is that I have decided to move back to Bangkok where I lived for 4 years. I've already talked with friends there and I've submitted proposals for 3 plays that I'm interested in directing for the Bangkok Community Theatre. I did a lot of work with them in the past and look forward to doing some great stuff with them again. As you can imagine the process of making three different proposals has taken a lot of time. But now that's done and I can get back to building up my business here at WA.

So thank you all for inspiring me to 'git er done' and for the sun, who always shines, even when it's up above the clouds where we don't see it.

Thanks for the update Micheal and I learned two things about you today, you don't like the colder weather and you are into theater. Done a little acting myself in a musical production of "A Christmas Carol". Lots of fun. Glad you're back on track and sorry about the loss of your cat.

well I am glad you weathered the storm now let the sun shine shine shine all the best Max

I can relate to your story.About twenty years ago a group of us went to Thailand for our holidays,we did a package tour and stayed 4 nights in Bangkok and then 11 nights in Pattaya.Flying into Thailand at night we hit a thunder and lightning storm,it was like something out of Air force one and was very scary.That particular night we were driven to our hotel and stepping out,one was stepping into 3 to 4 inches of rain water,now the temperature was not at 12 degree,s and that was one thing to be thankful but I know that some of those hot countries can get freaky weather.
Sorry to hear about your cat,I have two cats and I love them both especially Tom,he is seen now on my profile photo rolling over on his belly.He is the size of two cats.

Wow - 12 degrees is seriously cold for Thailand. Glad to see weather is returning to nomal! Good luck with the move and I'm sure you'll be back on track in no time Michael. Best wishes..

Sounds like things are going pretty well for you. You seem to be doing what you enjoy both in the theater and in WA. I wish you the best!

Hi Micheal, the sun came out this early afternoon and am so glad it's still out of the clouds! Tomorrow should be warmer still!
Congrats on your decision to move to BKK... follow your heart!
Sorry to hear about your cat...

My best to you!

I'm directing a children's play at Chiang Mai Drama Centre that will be performed either in the last weekend of May or the first weekend in June. Probably go to the perfomance with my bags all packed.

So sad to hear about your cat.

So sorry about your cat - when my dog of 14 died it took me some time to get out of the dumps. The move to Bangkok sounds really exciting. All the best.
