Mobi-Babble

Was 2013 Mobi’s Annus horribilis?

It certainly hasn’t been a great year, what with my serious health problems and losing all my savings.

But on the positive side, I had a wonderful trip to England to see all my family and if anything, my relationship with Noo is now stronger than ever. I now know more than ever that money doesn’t bring happiness, and there is no replacement for a loving family and good health. Riches are a distant third.

Upon reflection, maybe 2013 was my: Annus “Comme ci, comme ça” –ish….

(with sincere apologies to language academics everywhere….)

So sorry folks, not much of a blog this weekend. I did post my long ‘short’ story on Christmas Day, which I am hoping will tide you over until the New Year.

After 5 days during which I didn’t speak to a single soul, Noo and her son arrived back late on Friday evening, so things are slowly getting back to normal.

I am going to Bangkok next Thursday and will stay overnight with a friend at his condo, and on Friday morning I have an appointment with a pancreas specialist at Siriroj hospital in Thon Buri.

I plan to leave my car at the condo in soi 24, Sukhumvit and take a Sky train and then a boat along the Chao Phraya River to the hospital. That should be interesting.

All being well, my blog will be back to normal next weekend. In the meantime, I wish all my readers a very happy New Year and I sincerely hope that 2014 will bring you good health and good fortune.
