Day 12 - An Evening Walk With Woofer's Ghost

Image
Today would have been Woofer's 17th birthday. Every day he would get at least 3 walks. So tonight I took him on the last walk of the day. I haven't done so since he passed over rainbow bridge. I used to end the day with a night walk before bed time. He would spend the evening cuddling and sleeping on the sofa. But around a certain time, as if moved by an unseen internal clock, he would rouse himself. He would give me, "the stare." Woofer would jump around excitedly and fidget while I put on his lead and or coat. Then we would be off into the night air. The first destination would a dash for the blue recycling bin. First in line of fire for a pent up pee, first of many. Pooping spot would be chosen more carefully; Each night a different spot, often chosen from a selection of favourites. Other times his pooping spot would be chosen from a mysterious criteria known only to him.  We would walk the night, he and I. On our return it would be cuddles and kisses before bed. O...

Day 12 - Life Playlist

 Today was a little different because I composed songs - with the help of AI. I created songs about the tasks that I did today: Caffeinated Chaos , Walking With Woofer , and Tower of boxes.   I really love how the one about Woofer turned out. I'll admit to being a little misty eyed. I still miss him so much. Life is just not the same any more. He was the best. 

Day 11 - Failed at things

 I tried to make some bread but failed at it. I tried to set up somewhere to display my writing - both old and new, but failed at that as well. Oh dear! Not to worry, tis fine. Trying something different does not mean being successful at it. Tomorrow is a new and different day. 

Day 11 - A different movie

Image
Watched a movie I wouldn't normally watch in a genre I wouldn't normally choose from. A racing movie called Rush. I was aware of it being on Netflix and aware that it was supposed to be very good but not my sort of movie, don't do sports movies in general but decided to give it a go for something different. It was good, actually. I enjoyed it. The rivalry between the two drivers and their contrasting personalities was made for a compelling watch and thr racing was exciting and well shot. In general the cinematography was pretty great. I would have liked more track action but otherwise a good movie. I don't love it - not being a sports fan. If I was into racing I would have probably enjoyed it much more but I'm glad I saw it. It will never be a fav, but it was good to... do... ( you guessed ) something different. 

Missing days

 I missed a day. I know I will. You know what? That's fine. I give myself permission to miss a day or two. Some days I will be blank. Some days I will be glum or aimless or easy and free. It's fine. Those days can be here. As long as I keep going with the project. I will. Let's do this! YAY! FUCK YEAAAAAAAAH. Hello, I am a ghost writer. Wooo Me: That's not what a ghost writer is, you know? Woooo? Anyway, please stop haunting my blog. Woont you? Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Really? ........ ...

Day 10 - cronut

 Tried a chocolate covered cronut. It's alright. I prefer an actual doughnut or croissant.

Day 9 - Candle making

I made a candle! The kit has been sitting around awhile. It wasn't that difficult and just involved rolling together sheets of wax, around a wick, to make a candle. I cut some shapes out of the last sheet. It went surprisingly well.
