My walk through the park made it easier to head to work too early in the morning, as usual. At nine o’clock AM on a December day with a fresh snowfall, the world is pale gold with wintry blue shadows and hints of lavender. I like walking in the park on my way to work because all the neighbourhood dogs are out with their respective owners, off the leash and galloping after each other, sniffing bums (and er..licking them too), falling over eachother, barking at eachother, chasing falling snow and sticking their heads in it. They make me laugh when they crouch down in the snow to poop, their haunches quivering in the cold and excitment, hardly being able to contain themselves to stay still for just another moment. I don’t have the pleasure of canine company always, but every morning and evening, watching them gives me separation time from to do lists and office frustrations, and makes me look up from my footsteps and take in the landscape.

I have to smile, because of course, this reminds me of Lucy. Also, I love reading you.
You are blogging again! All’s right with the world.
Damn it. Take out that comma after “of course” in my comment.
Sigh.
AND. Thanks for putting up my photo.
Don’t forget to put your Christmas cards in the gallery, yo.
Sorry. One more: AWESOME pic for the Santa show, and good job on getting that commissioned portrait!! Hooray!!
Thanks! And I’ve just taken some photos of my bedroom and the view from it, and some of them turned out quite good that I’d like to share. They’ve also sparked something..but I’ll blog about it in a bit…
