a nice one

the family dinner was a hoot. miss 4 year old nelle certainly spread her meal all about the place. we had thai food so there was rice for nelle to launch in all directions and that, she dutifully did. max and cole [the intrepid 6 year olds] had a ball. no matter what we do, they manage somehow, to include a good ol wrestle into the bargain. some forty-five of us showed up to this thai place and they found it hard to cope with [we had given them two days to prepare]. so we ate in relays. the diabetes objected so i won't go there again. too much rice and noodles. i should have known. still, back in order now. the meal was in a banquet style, chev was challenged with the idea that we would share. he wanted to keep his plate to himself. that was a giggle.
i have been out for the daily flat white this afternoon which i enjoyed greatly with my friend the painter. a long discussion about life, appreciation, sharing and the nature of forgiveness. we then gathered in driftwood from the beach for firewood. all in all, a nice one.
