Why do you blog?

I imagine being asked by my little Alien(above) why I blog and it struck me ,it is to communicate.Which is really very exciting and any channel that encourages open communication is a good thing isn’t it?

Harvey

Me : Harvey?

Harvey : Hello

Me: You’re always with me Harvey aren’t you?

Harvey: Humm, I suppose I am, yeah.

Me: Why is that Harvey? I’m happy you’re here and all, it’s not as if you get in the way or anything, I know I’m the only one who can see you.

Harvey: Yup.

Me: But how did this happen? Why are you here and why me?

Harvey : I don’t know why, I’m only a rabbit and a small one at that.

Me: Yes , in the film with Jimmy Stewart, you were six feet weren’t you?

Harvey : Yup, but that was just a film , that was make believe.

Me: So you think you’re real , not make believe?

Harvey: I don’t know, but I know I’m not in a film or on TV or anything like that.

Me: No, we’re not I suppose.(looks down at the ground). Sometimes things feel unreal though.

Harvey : I’d like to be able to tell you why I’m here , but I don’t really know. It’s fun following you about ;that’s all.

Me: Well you are a good friend and you don’t bother me , so I’m happy that you follow me around. You’re very good at getting out of the way, particularly of fast cars, you’ve got good road sense.

Harvey: Comes with the territory.

Me: I suppose it’s daft to ask too many questions isn’t it?

Harvey : No, it’s not daft , it’s just sometimes the answer isn’t always available or maybe there isn’t an answer at all : at the end of the day, I’m just a rabbit.

Me: To me you are Harvey. You’re a very interesting rabbit. Would you like me to rub your ears?

Harvey : Oh yes please, that is one of the perks of this job.

Me: (rubs Harvey’s ears)

Harvey: Hhhmmmn….

Me: Shall we go to the Park, it would be nice to get some fresh air.

Harvey: Yup, why not.

The End

How are you feeling right now?

I’ve got two days to get ready to go on holiday.No work,just concentrated packing,cleaning,tidying,and preening,

And just generally excited about life as the giant bollock hasn’t vanquished me  yet.

What daily habit do you do that improves your quality of life?

I used to play a little squash,not seriously,but in order to be in a good position to return your opponents shot,the idea was you tried to get back to the T. The T was a line marking in the centre of the court which formed a T shape.

I use that in my daily life and try and adjust to whatever happens on a daily basis,good or bad,by always making adjustments,whether physically or mentally to return to my T point.

The point where I’m ready to face whatever is happening  ,having positioned myself in the best place to deal with it.

I think it’s a good analogy.

Excuse the tennis racket….the T is perfect though

What was the last thing you searched for online? Why were you looking for it?

Well it wasn’t actually me that searched for the wire.It was my poor other half who has been trying to mend his precious rather elderly motorbike for months.Unfortunately it is something electronic.

He’s done a lot,replacing the fuel pump twice and because the electronics were playing up he had to find a way to override the circuit.Hence he looked for and found a Puny bit of wire,available next day delivery online.

And then it begun, three weeks later,after receiving notification that said PBOW had been despatched from Romania of all places,it was posted through our letter box.

He was at work when he received the notification and panicked as our dog was home alone and once ate some wire cable that was posted through the letterbox.

He made his excuses,drove home and found the dog had opened the package but thankfully not yet chewed the cable.The guilty look on the dog’s face meant that my partner had arrived just in time. The dog got an extra walk and the cable was put safely in the drawer

Pleased to say the cable did the job and possibly with a new battery the bike may be up and running,perhaps when we get back from holiday…perhaps.

What TV shows did you watch as a kid?

Z Cars always seemed so real and the Police were decent men and women  who solved crimes and looked after old people.

What’s your favorite time of day?

Anytime is a good time if you live in the moment.
