Right Now

love is sweet
the taste of love is sweet


After two weeks, this bug is finally losing it's hold on me. Yesterday, I had enough energy to take a short walk through our small town and down to the ocean.

It felt good to breathe fresh air and watch the sea water dance in circles with the wind. The grey clouds were moving East as the sun broke through with subtle hues of an early winter evening.

As I was turning to come back home, I noticed a graffiti message someone had left on a post by the sea.

What am I loving right now?

memories
my husband for all his jokes, hugs and shoulder massages that kept me going the last two weeks
the strength to do art
the return of my taste buds and sense of smell
and lastly, my local library, for keeping stocked on great books!

Blue-eyed Siamese Cat flies to Japan

Today was filled with my art and time with Sputnik. She was bathing herself which gave me the chance to catch a photo of her. I actually adopted Sputnik as a kitten in 1998 when I was living in Mexico. She made the long trip with me to Japan on July 25, 2004. It took me about 6 months to plan the logistics of bringing her from Mexico to Japan. Since I had to fly via the U.S. on Mexicana Airlines and Korean Airlines, that meant 4 countries and two airlines would need to approve her transport. There were many details to keep track of for each country and airline. After 6 months of stressful planning, 16 hours of two airline flights and layovers, She made it to Japan safely!
