Today was a good day. Kaliya had an appointment for a filling at the dentist. While she was in there Jojo and I hung out in the FedEx next door and surfed the net and I worked on my new business cards.
It has been SO FREAKING HOT. The air conditioning was delicious and cruising the net in the back away from everyone else, felt positively NORMAL lol.
 
They had a bunch of books on the wall, one of which, "Think and Grow Rich" has been on my short-list for a VERY long time. While we were sitting there, I read the first couple chapters, and I INSTANTLY understood why this is one of the SINGLE MOST recommended self-help books of all time. Like, really REALLY good. So good I want to start reading to the kids again like they are 5 and 6, so I can be sure they consume this information.
 
After we finished there, we drove to town. I took the scenic routes all over makiki and kalihi looking for the right way onto the Pali lol. We finally found our way to the correct side of the Pali and took ourselves to Nuuanu and Jack-ass ginger where I SWEAR I saw one of the chickens we dropped off a couple months ago living her best life.
 
Went to the pool and watched these two young boys from the mainland just having A BLAST and it reminded me how special this place is. Watching them AND my kids having a great time, I really wished I had brought both of my cameras. My phone was dead as well, so no pics of this particular excursion. Added Bonus, the White Ginger all along the road on the way up was in bloom, so I grabbed a BUNCH and am now looking at a beautiful arrangement in the kitchen.
 
After that, we took the scenic route all through Ward, and WHOA!! It looks completely different from even 2-3 years ago when I rode through there last. What a trip!! I seriously got lost on roads that I used to know like the back of my hand. It is so crazy how things change and it makes me feel old lol
On the way to Costco, I saw a BUNCH of police officers at the Capital and then at least 100 protesters AFTER DARK, holding signs against the new vaccine mandates. I had no idea that they were out there again today. It makes me SOOOOOOOO happy to see regular people resisting this BS. Of course, I HONKED and HONKED!!!
 
Anyway, we ended our night at Costco, where I bought a shit ton of food and also found this awesome lil kitchen cart that I just couldn't resist.
 
I am still working my way (and filming as I go along--I have 11 hours of footage rather than the 2-3 I previous estimated) through the house and this thing will make it look THAT much better AND give me another countertop and some more storage space AS WELL as provide content for another video,. I swear, shelves are my thing for YT....lol.....
