Good Morning,
We had some rain overnight.
Yesterday or at least in the late afternoon we had a strong COLD wind.
As I was walking home from the bus, I was grateful that I had a warm coat and gloves.
Alvin and I went for our usual walk only it was not so usual.
We got as far as the “poop bag station.”
He had a poop turned to look at me and headed for home.
Okay, perhaps he was cold even though I had put his winter jacket on him.
So we had a short walk.
That might be part of the reason that he was up at 2:00 a.m. and then a few times after that until we were up to stay up at 5:09 a.m.
ARGH.
Definitely need COFFEE this morning.
I also am thinking that the later we go to bed the later he sleeps.
Or it seems that way.
We were in bed before 9:00 last night and five hour later we were up.
I guess we will go to bed later tonight.
I will get this figured out.
We have only been together for almost ten years …..
Relationships always require work …. no matter who or the type.
Work.
I guess everything we do requires work of some sort.
Ah.
Just thinking as I glance about my newly renovated (painted) office at all my photos, cards and books …. how much I love this space.
The bulletin boards that my daughter made me for Christmas a few years back are finally up and filled with photos, ticket stubs, letters and poems.
My bookcases are filled with the books that I love …. each area special.
Books for children in one case with Minnie Mouse and a Bunny sitting atop.
Collectible magazines of Princess Diana and the Royal Family and some of my favourite people.
My purses hang on a rack on the door.
I have bios, self-help, and fiction.
All sorts of different topics and story lines.
I do love to read.
Right now I am reading Michelle Obama’s book “Becoming.”
I feel good in this room.
Best choice of paint colour ever.
I am so grateful to my friend for matching the paint to my handmade curtains “with absolute perfection.”
Well it is almost time to hit the road.
Alvin is laying on his blue blanket.
Touching my foot as he is never far from me when I am at home.
For his sake, I wished that I was able to be home with him all day, every day.
This would be a great time to come into lots of money.
Mmm, a million dollars.
That would be nice.
A gal can dream.
Happy Wednesday.
Living your life always with kindness and respect.
Always.
Always, Carol & Alvin
