This follows last week's The Monster of Dislocation
Since last Wednesday, things have been moving forward and and I have started to talk more about
dis this location (pun intended) and our future location; the place we want to live in and build (from) together in the very near future. In other words, a place that belongs to both of us ( unlike Clare's house in Italy or our current rental house in the Portuguese countryside ). A plot of land that gives us the creative freedom to shape it any way we want, using our immense imagination and creative energy.
Talking about energy, Clare and I are really feeling it today.
It helped that she woke up feeling way better than the previous days - and weeks - and that both of us finally seemed to have gotten some deeper sleep in.
Perhaps yesterday's two glasses of red wine plus a scrabble game in the village bar ( a spontaneous decision ), combined with a half an hour walk there in the late afternoon - and back again - at night, played a part in that.
Who knows. There's just so many things going on in our life and the world, these days, that it's impossible to pin point what is causing what.
Anyhow, this morning Clare got into a cleaning/tidying things up/re-organizing things frenzy and I joined her, in between cleaning the compost toilet and kitchen compost bucket.
It sure felt good.
Dealing with shit.
I also felt and feel inspired to continue my Monster of Disco wearing clothes/ mini book project ( as mentioned in The Monster of Dislocation ), where I wrote:
"I am even envisioning making a book where I stitch monsters on cardboard, using wool or thread."
Looking forward to moving ahead with this...
but first it's time to go to the nearest city for a much deserved lunch and some shopping. And hopefully a nice walk.
Calmer and slightly sunnier weather has returned and it sure has a positive effect on our energy.
Enjoy your day, wherever you are and don't forget to have fun and keep moving. Life is too 'short' to waste your days!✨
