“It cuts like a knife but it feels so right” Bryan Adams

Something happened last night...
 

I let someone other than myself use my chef’s knife for the first time ever... I won’t even think about the reasons... All I know is I did and it felt right...

" Happiness is a direction, not a place" Sydney J. Harris

I adopted a dog last week and he is the reason why I’ve been so silent lately...  I’ve even stayed away from work a bit, not usual for me, but hey, this little guys needs me... And being a freelance everything, I guess I can afford the luxury of working slower than I would habitually do...

So now, allow me to introduce you guys to Othello...

Getting him to pose for me wasn't easy... He'll get used to it, hopefully...

He is a huge bundle of joy... Adapting hasn’t been the easiest,  living in a flat and all... I like large dogs and well, we do have enough space... What we don’t have is a yard or a garden and that has been making my schedule a truly chaotic one... No complaints, there’s been more rewards than disadvantages for me...

I could say I’m on the way of living a happy life. I’m in love with this “perfect for me” guy... I have a dog that brings lots of warm fuzzy feelings, I have a great job, I have music... Life is good... And as much as I would love to spend more time telling you about it all, I have to go get some laundry done and take a walk in the woods...

“I have never taken any exercise except sleeping and resting.” Mark Twain

I took a day off today and instead of coming here to write or go read other blogs, I spent most my day dozing, reading a book, eating proper food and just, you know, pampering myself a bit and watching through the window...

It’s not often that I would do something like that... My brain needed the break... I’m kind of stuck...

Usually, when my brain needs a break I just go out and walk aimlessly. You never know what you will see out there that will help you get fresh ideas...

Today I just needed to quiet it all... No music... No telly, no computer till late afternoon. Nothing but written words and the city down there... I truly felt as if I lived on an island...

Ok... I did think of some things I want to do to my flat... But those don’t count as work... Dreams can’t be considered work... Right? And maybe I cheated a bit going online on my phone for a few minutes a couple of times... But I got what I needed... My body is rested, my brain is rested and I’m ready to go back to work in the morning...
