BC Blessings

God is good.

- I'm back in BC - got a "welcome home!" from a soul sistah - safe and sound and very happy to be up in the mountains even if I kept conking out last night on the drive here from sheer exhaustion (good thing I wasn't at the wheel!).

- Unlike the last time, I didn't have to do any heavy lifting to move stuff in - although he drove the entire trip, CC got up much earlier in the morning than I did...and hauled up all my stuff we'd left down in the car. After which, he promptly started work on a Session Road/Real Living-inspired wall mirror mosaic, and didn't let up work until dinnertime.

- Speaking of which, today I discovered a little eatery off-the-beaten-track (and therefore located on a road not covered by the BC color-coding system) that serves an extremely good (and very cheap) lean pork barbecue with a side order of tomato-onion-green pepper relish - very, very good spiked with just the right anghang of Quezon's Coconut Vinegar. So good that after having it for lunch, we went and bought it for dinner as well.

- My car's clutch now works like a very pleasant dream.

- I made a serendipitous discovery today...the JJ P(h)ad has wi-fi access!! Free of charge. Amazing! That has to be my favorite blessing of the day. Couldn't help smiling for hours about it...still smiling now as I blog from my favorite BC writing spot. Jeryc my "anak" couldn't believe our good fortune either - "OH MY GOSH!! Now we don't have any reason to leave the P(h)ad!" Exactly.

- The P(h)ad is starting to look even more awesome. Think Kawayan de Guia's Session Road meets Moulin Rouge on hash (in the words of Rachel, Real Living's EIC). Hehe. I love how it's turning out.

God is GOOD!
