Every little thing gonna be alright


I may have outdone myself yesterday. Today was a day of rest. Late morning, big breakfast, a little activity in the morning and sleep/rest for most of the afternoon.

The research manager had to wake me to drive my to my 6:30 massage.

You can't be too careful with the bowel issues in my world which prompted me to take an extra par of Depends with me. This reminded me of Tanya's story of the little Japanese guy who had a seaweed massage with her. She gave him disposable underwear to put on and when she returned, he was wearing the pants on his head. I thought of doing that with my spare pair, but she already thinks that I am crazy.

I felt good after the massage, underscoring the fact that I feel much better when I am up and moving as opposed to lying down.

The highlight of the day was that the research manager managed to unclog the bathroom sink that got blocked. She battled this for about 4 hours over two days and finally won. She was elated. You can tell how exciting the day was!

Yesterday crowded out an important note. Yesterday was the anniversary of Bob Marley's passing. I wanted to mention this because one of the things on my bucket list is to get a Bob Marley tape, I bought one while on a cruise in the late 1980's. Soon thereafter, my dear son Grant took it and I have not seen it since. I hear that you can access such things on the internet now.

Tanya told me that the first song she learned on her guitar was "Three Little Birds."

Here is the chorus:

Don't worry about a thing
'Cause every little thing gonna be alright
Singing' don't worry about a thing
'Cause every little thing gonna be alright


My kind of philosophy!

Here is a link to a YouTube presentation of the song.
