Mi Vida Contigo

Jul

Week 1

Summer. Summer is a smell. It’s water on hot concrete, BBQs and grills, fresh grass clippings, coconut sunscreen and warm night air. We’ve been in our house for almost one week and I love it.

Things that irk me & delight me. We ride the bus a lot. It irks me so much when the bus driver is grumpy or mean to someone. It also irks me when people are rude or unkind to others on the bus. And when the bus driver is extra lovely or when people are super kind, it delights me so much.

This makes me extra aware of how I act towards people – it’s so true that even a smile can brighten someone’s day.

Mmm, summer… seems awfully far away, as I sit here warming my toes by the fire in chilly Queenstown!! And yes to the bus observations – I use the bus a lot in Wellington, and it makes my day when I get a smiley bus driver (luckily, Wellington seems to have a lot of ‘em!). And someone has offered to pay my fare – twice! And the other day, I saw a woman offer to pay for a guy’s. It makes me think people can be really nice after all (everyone thanks the driver as they get off here, too! Its a nice custom. That didn’t happen when I lived in London).
