Dog Says Bark

Lately it's been difficult finding things to be thankful or happy about. I notice that it's not just me in this leaky boat, it's almost everyone I meet. So when I got home from work today, and settled into my after-work habit, I realized....this habit makes me happy. And it's especially nice today.

It's a beautiful day out, not the scorching hell-like temperatures we've been having. I turned off my a/c and threw open some windows. A nice breeze comes into my kitchen and dining. A nice mug of PG Tips tea (how very English) with plenty of creamer (learnt from the knee of my Australian grandma) and peace and quiet.

 My astute friends will notice something seriously wrong.

Don't worry, I got up and got a book to read while I drank my tea. I'm not sick or anything.

Whatever happened today was put to bed during this little 15 minute break. Thankfully, the neighborhood yappy dog started in AFTER I finished my tea. Nice try, Yippy.
