Louder, harder, deeper, better...

I woke up this morning and looked around the room and said, "Whaaa?  Where did I park last night? Where am I?"  It was dark in the room and I sat up and realized, I was not even in my van. I was in a king size bed alone, then remembered I was house sitting for a dear girl friend who left the country. A weird moment, that only a full time vanlifer would understand. ha, ha, ha... 

I am lucky to be getting paid to house and dog sit for a month in a nice house on the Pacific ocean, and extra happy it has an outdoor hot tub. One of the perks of my life is having outgoing friends who like to travel and have adorable pets that need to be watched over.  I am watching a very sweet older dog.

Nellie is an 18 year old Westy and she likes my soul funk wake up music filled mornings, and whatever new house music at dinner I dance around with when I start cooking a little shumthin, shumthin, when I get home. Mostly she likes my snuggles in front of a good Netflix movie, bacon and vanilla bubble baths before bed and then drying off in front of the fireplace all warm and comfy together. 

She has lost much of her eye sight and hearing, and is mostly incontinent now and gets stuck in corners and can't back up anymore by herself. Her little legs can't stand for very long and she has a hard time eating from a bowl without you holding it for her. She is still kicking it and she still talks to me. She actually makes sounds like she is saying, hello - when I open the door and say "Hello Gorgeous Puppy."

She loves my singing of sweet jazz standards around the house 
while cleaning and rolls her eyes at my stupid jokes. I love her so very much!
Nellie is an Angel, with fur.

Today was my first day at my new corporate contract Biotech day job. As far as Science day jobs go, I PICKED THE BEST PLACE. It felt strange to be back in a corporate environment after being off since March, but really good at the same time. 

I am a more alive and stronger than ever 

now that I am living without pain!

I am a free range chicken that does well with structure in my daily life.  I think this is how I can successfully do 20 things at once without dropping a ball. I love living with so much freedom as well as my structured consistent reliabilities. It's a nice combination that allows me to deliver and make my commitments and deadlines on time in my life. They are a sweet balance that are the building blocks to my entrepreneurial fun filled future!

The new group I am supporting are as smart as hell and funny, appreciative and very nice people. I feel honored that I am now part of their team. I have some hard work ahead of me. I am fortunate to help make the difference in the lives of those who need my expertize, TLC, organizational help, event and party planning fun and daily happy ju ju.

I am living a life out loud like never before. 

LOUDER, HARDER, DEEPER - 

YET SO MUCH BETTER!
