morning has broken

Good Morning! Had my first cup of coffee on the terrace this morning. Not a single cloud in the sky. Peaceful. Sat there for about a half hour, basically til my cup was empty and Thor was sweaty.
I woke up motivated this morning. Not sure what that motivation actually was but right after my alarm went off, I rolled out of bed, did some stretches and cat-cows to wake up (I have done that lately, it’s a nice start of the day) and then jumped into the shower before hubby and puppy got up. A perfect and positive start of the day gives you a bigger chance of a perfect and positive day all together.

Last night we had some crazy lightning and thunder going on. It always freaks me out, but it amazes me at the same time. Couldn’t help myself but to film it. It has nothing to do with today’s post, but I thought it was pretty cool to share:)

Hello and Happy Wednesday! I’m watching my neighbors cat for a few days, so after I had said goodbye to hubby and taken Thor for a walk this morning, I went over to feed the kitty. I’m going over there later to play with him for a bit too. Now I’m drinking my morning coffee while I edit photos. We are supposed to have maintenance guys coming today. They need access to our terrace to clean the drains of the building. We got an email about it yesterday afternoon, I kinda wish they would have given a few more days notice so I could plan my day differently, but whatever. It’s a gorgeous day so maybe I take Thor for a bike ride.
I have a video coming up for you guys later today, just need to add music. I had to split my Chicago video into two because it was very long, so part one is coming today. 

sore body after our weekend in Chicago

We had an awesome weekend in Chicago! Today I’m tired:) Slept like a rock and didn’t even notice that Jim went to work this morning. Woke up at 9 and wondered where I was and what day it is, hahah. And Thor was sleeping like a rock next to me as well.
My body is so sore today. Lots of walking, dancing and barely any sitting this whole weekend. It really feels like I got run over by a monster truck several times. Knees hurt so bad both after the wedding on Saturday and after all the walking yesterday that I have been putting ice on them before going to bed. It’s like the dancing days when I would come home after a whole day of classes and rehearsals and I could barely move until I had to do the same thing the next day. I do have to take better care of my body now though, I feel it.
I hope you guys had a wonderful first weekend of May.

Good Morning from Chicago

Hello! We are in Chicago. We arrived Friday afternoon and we are leaving tonight. We are here because our friends Bob and Sarah got married yesterday. Today we are going to baseball.We woke up around 6am today. I wanted to dance by the Bean before too many tourists shows up. It’s very calm in the city that early on a Sunday, not like NYC:) Now I’m sitting by myself having a latte at a cafe. Jim went back to the hotel to sleep a little more. Its nice to be alone sometimes. Kinda wish I had my notebook though, like actual pen and paper, with me, cause now if I have things I want to write down I have to use my phone and I’m trying more and more to not use it every second nothing happens/I get bored. I think it’s a problem in our world now, we turn to our phones every second we can. I have been staring at my coffee and out the windows for a bit now and thought I could take the time to say hi to you guys (from my phone?). Going back to sipping latte now:) Have an awesome day!
