Entries by TATIANA

Can you believe it is March already? Time flies and life goes on regardless of if you are happy or sad.....the days and years go by so fast it scares me. Carpe Diem they say and yeah......really Carpe Diem I guess, all that you can because everybody's days are accounted for no matter who you are.
So I spent most of yesterday outside.....exploring my neighborhood some more. Doing my best to seize the day you know.....



Drove the Red Rock scenic route.....I think it is a 13 mile loop, some fitness enthusiasts pedal it on bike. However you do it - it's beautiful.





Chhaya was with me of course!



I decided to go to Bonnie Springs Ranch since it's only a few miles away from Red Rock. I did not go into the zoo though, I have already done that once and it's a sad experience to see those miserable caged up animals. I still think about some of them years after I went there.





Bonnie Springs Ranch has many fun photo opportunities. If you go alone, just ask somebody to take a picture of you. I do that all the time. No dogs allowed in there, so Chhaya had to wait in the car, I parked in complete shade and she took a nap.





Later that evening in the park.....that same night we went to another park for a late night walk.





I actually saw a COMET (?) during this walk. Something lit up the sky in passing and it was not a shooting star. That "something" had a tail. I was quite amazed to see it.



Not sure yet what me and Chhaya will do today, we just had lunch but I think that we will have a good day.

How can I possibly not write an entry today on February 29? Leap year, four more years until the next one. What will my life, your life....the world as we know it look like then? You never know, so be grateful right now today, if you are blessed with the priceless things in life.
I'm going to take Chhaya out for a late night walk in a bit but first I will tell you what I have been up to the last couple of days.....
I drove to check out the sights here in Nevada, Chhaya came with me of course.





I saw a movie and yes, I want to be comfy and cozy when I see a movie, so I make sure I bring an extra hoodie or a jacket and a pair of thick and fluffy socks and then I can stretch my legs out (if there is room to do so of course).
I saw The Witch. I think I had my fingers in my ears and covered my eyes for about a third of the movie, I did not want to hear all the screaming and see certain parts, I found this movie disturbing and I like scary movies although sometimes I don't know why I subject myself to that.....?



Today we went to Nelson ghost town. Found this witch sign in a window.



Chhaya poses for pics like a professional model. She needs an agent and a few contracts.







My beautiful baby and friend - I love her SO much. No words can do justice to describe my love for her.



And I managed to find a new bra.....finally! And a new purse for work. I think the Hello Kitty purse needs to rest for a while. Or for good. I actually already have a "purse" just like this.
I think it's meant to hold your make up (make up bag) but it can be used as a purse too I think.

I want this tiny home! Sooooo cute and I love it. I want something like this or an RV. Me and Chhaya traveling around.....my dream. Reading books, writing, feeling a nice breeze through my hair, cuddling Chhaya and rubbing her legs and paws, take pictures and see new sights, enjoy life. No more sadness in my soul. I'm dreaming of this....

It's almost a must to take a picture in front of the "Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas Nevada" sign when you visit Vegas. But there is another cool sign nearby that makes for a good pic too. Just across the street there is the Harley Davidson store and in front of it you will find "Las Vegas" spelled out in large letters. Great for pics and Chhaya volunteered to pose.



After a few hectic days and nights on the Strip it is nice to take in what nature has to offer, Red Rock is not far from the Strip and worth a visit. The quiet surroundings make for a stark contrast from the almost non stop noise and hustle on the Strip.....

I used to be diligent about bringing my own cup for my daily latte.....then I started slacking but now I'm back on track. I don't want to preach to people about the importance of recycling and the effort of bringing your own cup if you can and then don't practice what I preach. I don't want to be a hypocrite but I know that I am sometimes, then I catch myself and correct myself. So latte in my own reusable cup and two cranberry muffins. My breakfast.



Chhaya says she wants a fun walk or hike later.....that's fine with me.

Mine and Cindy's last stop on our photo shoot road trip last month was in Nelson Ghost Town Nevada, not too far from Las Vegas and well worth a visit. I definitely need to go back and I want to bring Chhaya so she can see it too. Chhaya needs some pretty pictures there.
