Saying Goodbye
Today I said my first goodbye...to my fish! I just took my first photo this week of my water lilies beginning to bloom...
...and now I need to give them up.:) My friend Tawan brought her sister to my apartment to get some help with her university level English. Tawan told me she had just decided she wanted to buy a mini water lily/fish pool for her balcony, so it seemed quite the appropriate thing to offer her mine. It actually feels like a God thing--one less thing to figure out what to do with.
Tawan scoops out most of the water for the ride home in the trunk of her car.
Me, Poompuang, Tawan before the trek down 5 flights of stairs carrying a HEAVY bowl.
After my friends left, I went down to do my laundry and in the process received an invitation to eat supper with Kitti and Ruung and the family, so I am now awaiting a call from them.:) I am getting an awful lot of free meals recently; how do I repay these people???

Unfair...you can grow tropical water lilies there without taking them in over winter(G)...we have 5 hardy water lilies in our new pond that we're STILL working on, and they are very pretty...and one lonely fish since his comrades were consumed by a voracious heron...
As for paying them back, they may feel their paying you back for your time and friendship-they probably appreciate you much like you appreciate them(G)...
