I fight with what to do next in my life. There is a part of me that wants to share my experiences with everyone and offer a new product to sell because that’s what is expected of me and that’s what I am good at doing. Then there is another part of me that wants to run around the world and see amazing things and experience life to the fullest, fall in love again, love myself, and just be. Be in the moment. Isn’t that what life is all about anyways? Being in each moment?
Take for instance, in this moment right now, I am typing on my computer enjoying the creative moment. Creating a story so you can get a glimpse of my life. I am content being in solitude in a foreign country. In a beautiful home surrounded by tropical plants that I get to learn how to take care of over the next couple of months. I have a yard to mow, weeds to pull from the garden, a house to clean and organize because I am OCD as fuck. Lol I have two dogs to take care of; Hugo who’s 14 and can’t walk on his own, and Abby who loves cuddles.
Speaking of Hugo, OMG! I have to share this story with you guy’s. I gave
Hugo a bath the other day and I swear I have never seen a dog so happy to
get a bath. Since he can’t walk, I placed him on the floor of the shower and took the shower nozzle of the holder and was able to wash him. It was so much easier than chasing him around lol Anyways, I was drying him off and he stands up on his front legs and leans up against me. He started convulsing and I swear I started to panic because my friend said he sometimes goes into fits. I looked down and I noticed his lipstick was poking out and the gyrating was his hips thrusting. The little guy was so happy he got a bath that he literally came hahahaha!!
After he was dry, I wrapped a blanket around him and snuggled with him and Abby on the couch for a few hours. It was a nice bonding time with the doggies. They are too sweet!
OK back to me. Lol Inside joke between me and my sister.
So where am I? I am in Australia until January 15th. I am housesitting for a friend for six weeks while she is off to Peru on another spiritual retreat at The Garden of Peace. Like I was saying earlier, I have chores to take care of while she is gone. Nothing I can’t handle myself, and I actually don’t mind doing them since I am staying here for free.
Remember when I said I am OCD, well I have already arranged the bed and straightened the shelves in the room I am in. Today I cleaned the bathroom from top to bottom. That included cleaning the cabinet and drawers out so I could arrange everything. I did the same to the kitchen. This isn’t the first time my OCD has kicked in high gear and organized someone’s home. It’s just that this time I have permission.
I might have her whole home feng shuied when she gets home. Yeah I know I just made up a word lol The funny thing about my weird OCD issues is that who’s to say that the way I have things arranged my is the right way? I literally can’t function if things aren’t properly placed in my home in a strategic way. Isn’t that a symptom of being on the spectrum? Hmmm?
At this point I think I could start rambling, but I will leave you guys with this for today. I am going to continue to blog and share as long as it falls in alignment with my purpose. I will be sharing pictures, recipes, videos, and who knows what else each week. I may write daily, weekly, or monthly. I don’t think I can commit to being consistent at the moment. In the mean time, SMILE, LOVE, and BE IN THE MOMENT.
Hello, I enjoｙ reading tһrough your post. I like to
wrіte a little comment to support you.
Thank you! That was so sweet of you. 🙂
Don’t assume that your neurosis places you on the spectrum. That’s disrespectful.
My nephew is on the spectrum and I see a lot of him in me. I apologize if you felt disrespected in some way.
Solitude ! You said a mouthful there. What I’d give to stop the hamster wheel of ex wife, alimony, child support and taxes but there is no end in sight. Your OCD drives you and my constant need for control drives me. I plan everything 2 months out and have back up plan for each action just in case. I’m jealous of your retreat I’m must admit. I hope you enjoyed it to the fullest.
