ยี่สิบสอง Yī̀s̄ib s̄xng

46 degrees at 10:30 p.m.

Mopped after doing some cleaning.

Some Thai:

สอง [S̄xng] = two
ยี่สิบสอง [Yī̀s̄ib s̄xng] =22
ตลอดไปยี่สิบสอง [Tlxd pị yī̀s̄ib s̄xng] = forever 22
ยี่สิบสองตลอดไป [Yī̀s̄ib s̄xng tlxd pị] = 22 forever

"x" is an open vowel. The diacritics are tone. Thai phrases don't leave space between words.

38 cloudy and not so cold degrees at 8:40 a.m.

Did manage to do some cleaning before going to bed. Still not quite sure why I can clean when I'm dead tired and not while I have energy.

No word on when the plumber is coming. So... off to the post office and then to visit friends.

42 degrees at 3:24 and damp. Never warmed up and it rained with more forecast.

Just a bank statement waiting for me at the post office. Saw friends and then had Travis join me for tea and sympathy.

I couldn't find my glasses before heading out. Hope to find them before bedtime.

Slowly going through books to be kept, given away or tossed.
