I actually think that a lot of people would so need this unwanted break. So many would be crawling out of their skin. Now I don't mean they should get cancer...gosh noooo!!! I mean the break of being "forced" to slow down their pace and actually just sit down and well, maybe not necessarily reflect about life but perhaps feel that it is ok not to do 200 in speed all the time. It is ok to be a couch potatoe. Yeah right, who am I to say who seem to be going 200 all the time myself. But that is actually not true. Mostly I do wake up early but I can sleep in to 9 am once in awhile. And I have actually become sort of a couch potatoe but that you don't see how lazy I am after 7 pm at night. Cuz during the weekends I prefer to get my stuff done before 2 pm. After that I can do what ever, such as hanging out on the couch with a good cup of coffee for a while if that is what I want. And after long walks, play and/ or  training with the Lakrits I am tired so falling asleep early during the weekend as well as during the weeks, isn't that unusual.

But I guess since they took out the tumour and got the Levaxin to adjust my hormonal level I actually realize I feel physically not as tired as prior to taking out the tumour and thyroid. Anyway, if you all get a chance to actually sit out a few days, take the chance and enjoy doing nothing! But to be honest, it isn't that easy. Today I feel I seriously will miss my hang out time with Lakrits. Usually at this time we are coming back home after an hour to hour and a half long walk or perhaps we have done a scent track. And it is barely 10 am.

 

Yesterday went actually pretty fast. I mean, it depends on what one mean by fast, but I did some painting, watched a couple of movies. Began the movie day with watching a documentary about Magic Johnson. Wow, what a man he is and what a ball player, magic! And the courage he had to come out in the early 90's saying he had HIV. And how he managed to come back to play basketball, both in the American Dream Team in the Olympics in '92 in Barcelona but also for the Lakers. He really has made a huge impact on how people look at HIV and Aids. They all thought he would be dead by now but he is 20-years later still alive and as I understood in good health!

 

Then I continued to watch a Swedish movie, "100-åringen som klev ut genom fönstret och försvann". Fantastic movie. Made me laugh. Finished the day with American Sniper. Not a good night story movie. I kept on thinking about the movie when I was to sleep at 10.30 pm.....I didn't realize it is based on a true story......gosh, irony I would call the end....It took me some time to let it go cuz the movie got to me in many ways. At the end I also realized it was a Clint Eastwood production. The other night I saw another Clint Eastwood production. He acted in this movie as well. Can't remember the name of the movie. It was about an old alone man played by Clint Eastwood, who lived next door to a Chinese family. The boy in that family had tried to steal the old man's car. So the plot of the movie was about how the two of them develop a relationship. It was a really sad ending too....and that movie made me think about life as well when I was going to bed. Clint Eastwood and his productions seems to be making me think about how fast life can change fast in good and bad ways. No matter what, he is a fantastic actor and producer.

 

Let's see what this day will bring....more painting, movies and relaxation I guess.....
