What is 'normal'? Good question! We can be eccentric, we can be very, very odd....but if we do not step on anyone's toes, if we get through day after day after day keeping our cool, doing the reliable routine type of day, then we are at normal.....or so I think.
I think we've reached the point of living a normal life. For all intents and purposes, things are working! The internet has its glitches but is faster with far fewer glitches than we had in China. The telephone works - but not the telephone in our apartment, as we are not even sure what the number is.
Mail Boxes, ETC is conveniently located and will ship EMS as well as UPS, so the mail is taken care of.
The Bangkok Bank debit card, with the Rabbit transportation card combined, does not work correctly - still have to work on that one but that too can wait until we've got to go to the bank with deposits/withdrawals to be done - at that time we can figure out how to do our banking.....
And that leaves us our normal life: a bit of work each day....reading each day.....walking each day.....photography and music, etc, etc, etc. Life, after three weeks in Bangkok, is very, very nice, indeed!!
