"You just do it. You force yourself to get up. You force yourself to put one foot before the other, and God damn it, you refuse to let it get to you. You fight. You cry. You curse. Then you go about the business of living. That’s how I’ve done it. There’s no other way." - Elizabeth Taylor 

 

Anciety

I have lived for so long now with the presure over my heart and the uncertanty over when my next anciety will attack will show up, that I now don't even now how do deal with prefection.

With perfection I mean waking up and everything feels great, going for a run that also feels awsome, having breakfast good even that. My whole body feels like its in euphoria mode.

Yes Spring is finally here it is Euphoria!!

But what do I do? I start to look forthe signs, what is wrong, isn't there somedark cloud howering in the horizon of my mind. There must be something it feels wrong.

Nothing has happened for me to feel like this I should feel the misery, the panic, the anciety.

Not Happy and Calm!

Or hang on that is Exactly how I should feel and what I feel right here right now!!

Stop and enjoy it god damn it!!

What If.......Wild Animals Ate Fast Food

I just love this clip and felt that I had to share it with you,
I guess that most of you alreday have seen it on facebook, but still.

Crafting

Friday night I got an urge to do something crafty with my hands.
Looking at my walls and seeing the same old ikea Ribba frames for many of my pictures I decided that I have to add some sparkle and personal touch to them.

With a bowl of broken bracelets, a tube of glue and a black frame I started my mission.


I'm quite pleased with the results.
Big question now us what picture to put in it, where to put it .

For now a photo from the great ocean toad in Australia will do.

Next mission is to bead up two frames and add photos from Mexico.

To be continued.....

Closet cleaning

This apartment must house atleast one centipede, a 7 headed monster and a primadonna.....

How else can you explain the piles and piles and piles of clothes, shoes, scarves....

Time flies...

Last night I decided to slide into a bubble bath. Light some candles and start a new book.

I have heard many things about "fifty shades of grey", but that it would captivate me from page 1 and keep me reading nonstop in the tub for 3hrs! That I did not expect.

In all I read no stop for 6hrs before I turned my lights of. And that was only because I had a train to catch today. I did forget to book my tickets last night and eat dinner and make two phone calls.

It has been so long since a book gripped me like this. For my friends sake I left the book at home.

Guess what I am doing tomorrow night....

When the sun came out

I am looking through the photos that I have on my SD card in my camera. It has been a while since I actually felt like taking a photo or dealing with them afterwards.

I cam up on this from Kolmården this fall. I had been photographin the animals on the savannah and suddenly the sun came out, I didn't realise this fast enough and had different settings.

I do like the cool effect of the zebras.....

 

It also gives you a perspective how different animals see different things depending on how their eyes are located (2D or 3D) and if you are a monocromati, dicromatic or tricromatic animals.
