Have had lots of visitors the past week or so. Rebecca and two of her friends from America dropped by briefly, bringing me a large supply of boxed skim milk from the Marjane in Marrakech. Then Judy and her two friends came for a couple of nights, when I was sick. She's a good enough friend that they just cooked their own meals, did their dishes. We'll reunite in WY in a couple of years. Then an environment volunteer, two friends and his parents stopped in for breakfast the other day. They'll all stay with me Monday night on their return from the desert. This is about as late as one would want to do that little trip. I'm betting it was close to 90 degrees (F) yesterday in my town, so desert had to be much hotter. Need to get a temperature gauge so I know for real how hot is hot and how cold is cold!

Some interesting thoughts to share from my "Grapevine" magazine.
"If only" means you're not facing reality. "I should" means you're trying to live up to someone else's expectations and you'll end up feeling guilty or resentful. "I have to"...you want to or you don't. "Have to" makes work out of everything, and that's a lie.
