sitting in my office over a cup of coffee is not rather exactly how people photo the life of a “dog runner.” however this is exactly how I produce balance.
Part of my day is spent romping as well as braving whatever North Dakota throws my way.
The winters can bring us -45 degree windchills. The next day it can be 40 degrees above zero. This is most likely why most people prevent North Dakota, as well as it’s the extremely reason why I like it here. The constantly altering weather condition takes in me every day. It is never boring.
The dogs do not worry about the wind or the warm or the snow or the flood or the windchill or the rain or the mud or the ice. They take it as it comes, as well as they assist me do the same. We like it “out there.”
I go to work as well as my “customers” are so happy to see me, they cry. I like each as well as every dog I spend time with, as well as they like me. How’s that for a positive work environment? ?
But a little part of my day is spent at my desk with at least one dog at my feet, sometimes a cat. sometimes two cats.
Although dog running pays the majority of my expenses (for now), eventually I am a writer. A writer who likes dogs, as well as I’m constantly being pulled in this direction.
I left my life as an worker at our everyday newspaper where I did not matter. I really did not matter. breaking free from this burden has enabled me to believe clearer about my life, take more risks, sluggish down, set more goals as well as focus on what truly matters.
I understand I’m fortunate to be able to acknowledge as well as acknowledge when I’m off track.
When my life is unbalanced I can’t assist anyone. I don’t have the energy to run, to stay positive, to create.
One of the reasons I like dogs so much is they truly motivate me to slow down as well as to simplify my life. even when I make mistakes, Ace just thumps his tail – “Oh well. You’ll get it right next time.”
So what I’m truly trying to state right here is say thanks to you for sticking around as well as reading this blog, those new as well as those who have been around for a while. It is extremely interesting to a writer when somebody – even one person – will really checked out what she has to say.
This blog has always been extremely interesting for me, an important part of my day, an reason for this ridiculously timid person to share something ?
