I got the New Eyewear

My new glasses was ready and I picked them up yesterday. 

😊😊😊


One pair was not feeling ok regarding the eye clarity, something was off?! After some testing and adjustments, the optician measured the strength and saw that the lens actually was not put in 100% correctly. 

🧐🧐🧐

She fixed/aligned the lens and everything is working now

πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘

I guess it has to do with the progressive lenses somehow


Japanese brand, back in black


Champagne color with golden base fillings



F@kking Hot πŸ”₯πŸ₯΅

 Oooh! 😡☀️😡‍πŸ’«

So hot nowadays and it a bit hotter than normal this time of the year that's called the "cool season". Yup πŸ‘πŸ˜„ cool 😎 



I am letting the plants get some extra sun as they normally stay in the shadows.

New Eyewear

 Today I went to OWNDAYS optician at Central Krabi after a couple of nights spent online searching and doing virtual try on.

1 pair - not in store 

1 pair - no fit in real life 

1 pair - excellent fit

1 pair - after lots of trying, I found an unexpected color and frame

The New House

 This the new built house across the pond.

Maybe 200 meters from where I am?!



Images copied from a post on Facebook

😊😊😊

Super Low Water Levels

 Dry season really shows when looking at the water levels in “my” pond. 

😲😲😲

At least 30 centimeters below "normal" levels and during the green rainy season it sometimes rises up to 30 centimeters more than normal levels.



Hard to see however it is about 60 centimeters from my toes down to the the waterline 

😲😲😲

Heavy Duty Gloves πŸ’ͺ

 I finally found some really good heavy duty gloves 

πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘

I was at Homepro to buy other stuff and found them there, 59 Thb ~ 17 Sek

These ruff blue ones are ok however doesn’t last long
🫀🫀🫀

These thin red ones are nice for finer work however will “melt” in the sun and get sticky and doesn’t last long either.

Alcohol Banned

 24 hours ban of alcohol sale as local elections are in motion  

Hard times for some people …

πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚


Reality of 22 Degrees

 So living in Thailand and getting used to the heat has its downsides as well. 

Normally in Sweden 22 degrees is super nice temperature however here in Thailand it’s freezing cold

πŸ₯ΆπŸ₯ΆπŸ₯Ά


Brrr, cold and refreshing!


Long pants and socks needed 



The cat will sit in the sunshine soon and warm up.
