I wrote a post this morning and it wasn’t very nice.

I was angry. And sad. More angry. What can I say? It was a low moment (of many).

But it wasn’t until now that I realized it didn’t get published. It didn’t even save in my drafts. It literally vanished.

So, instead I’ll let you know that I had a great day today. It was really busy at work, I got a project done that I didn’t think could happen and we even got to go out for lunch at the Thirsty Cactus. Now, I’m playing fetch with Spanky while I fiddle on the net. Soon, Hubby will be home and we’ll cuddle while watching the Office.

Today ended up being a good day. I like being able to write that.

Seriously, what is it about dogs and the car window? My dog, like many others I know, would probably fall out if I didn’t hold on to her so tightly. Check out the video below:

She even has twitchy body movements, otherwise known as ‘Wind Swimming”:

In my next life, I hope I’m a dog. They truly know how to find joy in the the simplest of things. Anyone else agree?

If you want to melt like butter check out my flickr stream of Spanky 2.0. If you want to melt like butter on a hot day then come and meet her in person. She knows how to make people smile

Why does it seem that we are all working triple overtime in life? Seriously, I am trying my best to simplify, to slow down and get myself more time. It seems lately that I’ve been doing the opposite.

i get excited about projects, I say ‘yes’ to everything because I genuinely want to do it. But when?

Even writing simple blog posts sometimes seems like a chore. It’s scary when the things you love doing feel that way.

Sometimes I even feel like that about my darling puppy, Spanky 2.0. She just takes up so much of my time and energy that occasionally (i will sheepishly admit) I wonder what my life would be like without her. Of course, then she does something that makes me burst a gut laughing and I realize that my life would be without a lot of joy. But I would have time.

I need to cut back on something. Something big, and not something I enjoy doing. What could it be? I really need to sit down, make a list of the big things in my life and call those people up and say “Sorry. That’s just not getting done. You’ll have to find someone else who is qualified.”

I can’t keep living my life like this. Feeling like I have no room for error. It makes me feel old and like I’m missing out on the important things.
