Today, I am thankful for my recent safe & smooth trip to the capital & up the mountain to use up vouchers.
I truly enjoyed the food the vouchers entitled me to!

Last night, I had a dream, part of which featured a buffet that I was helping myself to, filling at least two plates, mostly desserts that looked yummy!
The spread was fantastic, and I believe it was in my house. Perhaps a precursor for a bumper harvest of something delicious about to flow into my reality!

I was so discouraged by the poor stockmarket pickings these past few weeks that I spent the least time watching the markets since at least 2012.
Today, I randomly checked up a Japanese stock that I had bought...to my delight, I realised that it was sitting on what I thought then was a tenuous paper profit (¥985 versus my cost of ¥894.5 ). However, as I was making my usual walk, it dawned on me that I had bought 200 shares and not 100 as I had supposed earlier, meaning I would be left with over ¥ 8,800 in profit after deducting the (hefty) two-way commission.
Later in the afternoon, as I was searching frantically for the approaching ex-date for the dividend(it was 27th Sep), I chanced upon another stock I bought in May, by mistake because I had changed my mind but failed to withdraw the bid in time. To my pleasant surprise, it closed at ¥822 versus my cost of ¥678 such that, even if I sold my measly 100 shares, I would be left with over ¥ 5,200 in profit after deducting costs.
I will likely choose to sell these two on or after the 27th of September to ensure I pocket the dividends on top of whatever paper profit the markets allow me!
Today, I rejoice also in the 3943th day of rent-free living!

'If you make peace with where you are, you'll get to where you want to be faster!'
'Fork(pivot) in the direction of what you're wanting, and hold that thought for > 17 secs. In every moment you are living your life and molding the way you feel about the subject at hand. So as you're in your now and you are thinking about those 17 second explosions and you are making an effort to lean in the direction of what you're wanting, now you're in control in every moment. '
- Abraham
On top of that, I reach my 3,940th day of rent-freedom, approaching $170,000 in rent savings !

On this Glorious Day that the Creator hath gifted to me, I am most appreciative of the many birthday greetings from FB friends, the subtle and unsubtle ways the Universe works things out for me, opening doors and carving out paths of most allowance to my DREAM Life!

I'm so thankful that my enjoyable Texas Chicken lunch was timed divinely such that when I went home, 3 irritating people had finally removed themselves hundreds of km away from my rent-free home!
And, of course, I'm most appreciative of the $400 I received from my student, albeit one day late =)
Lastly but not leastly, I am thankful for the first hattrick of ZERO expenditure days (Aug 30-Sep 1) since Nov 10-13 '18!
