Signs

Wednesday 12th April 2023


I spent a lot of time today thinking that I've only got a month left to do everything and see everyone that I want to see before I leave. It almost made me panic but then I realised that I am doing okay.  There's still some formal things to attend to but my list making friends would be proud of the electronic list I'm making.


I have been on the hunt for shoes as I have worn my UK ones through and I despise buying shoes. It's so much easier buying running shoes because I know the make and model.  Casual shoes are a challenge. They have to be light and immediately comfortable.  I went to a nearby retail store and had some great help in the Adidas store. I asked her how long they've been open thinking it may be a few months. She replied 4 years, I was stunned. Life goes by very quickly. I did see the 'bakkie' (pick-up) version of my prize car outside the shoe shop so I had to take a picture.  It was a lucky sign, I got some comfy shoes haha.



During the loadshedding time I sorted more packing and did some plant watering in the garden. I spotted a huge feather which I took as another sign haha. All the signs directing me to my lottery win, haha. You'll be the first to hear.
