Watching Dogs Run

~ ~ ~
The storm has past.
Today has white mixed with blue.
The warmth within the house is nice.
Not muggy and not too cold.
I've already sat outside in my rocking chair.
Made my 'to do' list while watching the girls.
They ran around and danced together.
Such cute girls I have.
Al and Ashton are on my bed.
Waiting for the sun to arrive.
The windows will let them have several
spots to sit in and nap with warmth.
Me, I'm still getting better.
In pain but manageable.
Not on meds for now.
I have them in case I need them though.
This week, I'm taking off.
No plans.
So, as I look at my Purr and Fur Gang,
I hope you have as nice a day as
I think I'll have.

Fog On Friday



The view from my hotel in Phoenix.
We stayed here the night before we flew home.
I had a view of their baseball field.
  The fog has arrived.
Blocking the blue skies that I woke to.
(it's been rainy for most of the month
so blue skies are quite a thrill)
I hope it rolls away.
I can't see a thing.
Noises I do hear.
Have to go outside to see what they are.
A big barge was moving along the waters.
The house two down was having
 their bulkhead fixed.
Living on the water for a week now
has taken a few adjustments.
I feel isolated and by myself.
This is what I actually wanted.
Peace.
Quiet.
Well, maybe next week
when my neighbors
construction jobs are finished.
Til then, I will enjoy
the beauty that is fog
and the possibilities it may bring.

There comes a time in your life when you walk away from all of the drama and the people who create it. You surround yourself with people who make you laugh. Forget the bad and focus on the good. Love the people who treat you right and pray for those who don’t. Life is too short to be anything but happy. Falling down is part of life, getting back up is living.
