Thought for the day …..

Good Morning and Welcome to Wednesday the 29th day of November, 2017.

Can you believe it almost the last day of November 2017?

Where has the time gone?

Seems as though I think of that a lot.

Our weather has been great the past few days.

Another gorgeous day on the way.

Last night my friend gave me a ride home from work.

I was home by 4:30 p.m. and it was still more or less light outside.

We managed to get a walk in to the park.

Alvin did not want to go any further but at least we got that far.

There was some ice but not too bad.

 

Alvin is getting excited as tomorrow night he is going to his sister’s house for a sleepover.

Momma is having her Christmas party on Friday night with friends so easier on him that way.

Just going out for a little supper and the girls are coming over here afterwards.

He does need to get out and have some time away from his Momma.

I shall miss him as I do but good for both of us.

 

Well looks like it is almost time to leave for work.

Have an awesome Wednesday.

Keep warm and Stay safe.

Be kind and have fun.

 

Special Hello to:  my friend “V” …. so excited to see the charm ……

Always, Carol & Alvin

Thought for the day…..

Good Morning and Welcome to Wednesday the 5th day of March, 2014.

YAY, me “ALVIN” is back home.

He has been at his sister’s house since Sunday morning.

He came back home last night.

This was the longest that we haven’t seen each other, 3 days and 2 nights.

OH JOYOUS JOY ……

The house just wasn’t home without him.

I thought maybe he would have forgotten me but when he saw me coming into his sister’s house ….. he barked his shrill bark and ran around like he had won the lottery.

Perhaps that is what I need to do.

Anyway I am so happy that my Alvin is back home.

I know he was in great hands and had a good time but I missed him.

We still have not caught the “you know what” and are going to pick up different traps.

We noticed that he has eaten the peanut butter, pooped and left.

How clever.

I have been feeding him on expensive “natural” peanut butter for a week.

Oh well…..

Anyway time to go to work.

It is getting better there as well …… I am beginning to feel more at ease.

Huge change is always a bit unsettling.

So back to myself ….. thank goodness.

I think everyone was wondering.

But I think that once in a while I can have a “overwhelmed” – crazy – crying – down in the dumps – day or two!!

CRASHED and I AM FLYING AGAIN.

Special Hello to:  my cousin “J” who always has my back ….. thanks “J” …..

Always, Carol and Alvin

Thought for the day…..

Good Morning and Welcome to Monday the 3rd day of February, 2014.

What a strange feeling to wake up to the alarm.

Mr. Alvin spent the night at his sister’s house.

So quiet and feels so strange without my Alvin here.

I miss him.

No snuggles as he balanced himself on my lap (he clearly is not a lap dog).

He is such great company.

I am grateful that he is able to spend time at his sister’s house with Elton and Penny.

He will be home shortly and I will give him a quick snuggle before going off to work.

On this serene Monday morning I hope that this finds you well and ready to start the week.

Have a great day.

Special Hello to: all my friends and family …..

Always, Carol and Alvin

 

I hope that you all are having a great Monday.

 

 

 

 

 

Thought for the day…..

Good Morning and Welcome to Saturday the 21st day of December, 2013.

The only sounds that I can hear at this very moment are those of my fingers hitting the keyboard.

It seems so eerie ….

The sky is a pale blue as the sun begins to rise.

I can see out of my office window smoke rising from neighbouring chimneys.

Alvin slept over at his sister’s house so it is just me and it is so QUIET.

Do you ever have moments like these where it is so quiet you can hear your own breathing?

If I close my eyes I feel that peaceful solitude that comes with meditation.

Feels so good.

Furnace just cut in ….. (that is a good thing).

So on this last Saturday before Christmas ….. before all the excitement becomes so loud that you cannot think much less hear yourself breathe ….. take a few moments.

When you are in those moments ….. just sit in a comfy position, anywhere.

Close your eyes ….

Smile ….

Just breathe …. deeply …… deeply …..

Only concentrate of breathing ….. not of your TO DO list or how busy the mall is going to be.

I guarantee that the rest of the loud, crazy day will be so much easier to handle ……

I hope that you have an amazing Saturday.

WOW, it is so close now…….

YAY ……..

Special Hello to: my friend Linda …… thank you for the most beautiful card and we shall talk soon, I promise.

Always, Carol and Alvin
