Today, 36 hours since the place has been invaded with puppy energy I’m happy to report that I slept for 10 hours last night. Enough sleep and a distraction from the current events can do wonders.
It doesn’t feel like Spring at all, as it’s snowing a bit and cold but I can hear the birds chirping, I see the crocus blooming and there is Spring in the air nonetheless. I don’t want to look at the news and I have my hands full with work + puppy antics anyway. This is a time of transition and I remember how many times things were in transition before.
It’s not easy or comfortable but change is good. Even when it looks bad, when it is at a scary or frustrating point there is much to be learned from hanging in there and when the moment of grace happens and the daylight returns that’s pretty great.
My new pup is struggling to learn how to navigate stairs. It’s not ideal since I live on the 3rd floor. But last night she figured out how to go down them. And there was a great moment of relief. She still hadn’t figured out upstairs but the battle is half won. Don’t give up 5 minutes before the miracle.
All is well ❤️
