“I can’t focus when there’s too many things around. Whenever I used to go to the office, I used to always say, ‘Tidy up.'” Zaha Hadid

“There’s something boring about people who have to go to an office for a living” Karl Lagerfeld
“In order of appearance”
In the early morning hours
From my mighty tower (yeah right!)
I looked outside from my window
I was lucky to stay indoors
Because, it was very dark despite
The glorious blanket of white
That had fallen down the day before
What a total score!
Someone else would say
It was actually a sarcastic “yay”
Which from my mouth out dropped
Before I had to stop
The sarcasm getting too darn…
Still, debating, whether outside to pop
Or stay inside by the warm
With my trusted coffee cup
Staring for a moment
Not wanting to get frozen
I still couldn’t tore away
Transfixed,
Almost jinxed
Standing there
Looking at the open lane
Nothing stirred,
Well maybe something
I noticed one thing
A neighbour outside then came
Starting a task
Possibly with a help from “the flask”
Scraping the car
Trying to rid off
All the ice and snow
Not getting too far
Because the sky was pouring
More of the white stuff
Still standing in my spot
Looking at the clock
Ticking away
Not wanting to get to the boring
Part of my day
You all know what I mean
But, no good comes from just a lean
Tearing away, to my trusted laptop
With almost a scoot and a hop
Started reading, typing,
Huffing and puffing (but of course)
Soon I was in a swing
Troubles and solutions
Solved with a swing
Before I realized
The night was upon us
Time to shut down
Let the evening gown
Dress me down
And a little later
That darn traitor
Sleep, get me
And to other worlds flee
For tomorrow
Back in to the flow
Of another working day
I needed to play

“The brain is a wonderful organ; it starts working the moment you get up in the morning and does not stop until you get into the office” Robert Frost
“In order of appearance”
No, this is not a weather report and certainly not Mundane Monday post (that I already did on Monday, so check it out too 😉 )
You can call this, “‘Till Wednesday”, if you like. There will be no glitter, no glamour, no sunsets nor sunrises (well, maybe, still a few).
Simply depicted in photographs, how yet another working week started, after the holiday season was over and it was time to return back to everyday life in suburbia and back to world of office, well, this week, home office.
Enjoy!

Basking in the Sun (Daily Photo 2015-12-28)
The working day has begun
Must admit it, just no fun
Looking out the window
Seeing cold weather and snow
Just for a moment
My mind wanders
Back to holidays
Back to the time
When I was
Basking in the sun

Photo challenge for PhoTrabloggers Mundane Monday
“This is a challenge created to find beauty in almost everything. The challenge is simple : find beauty in everyday mundane things, capture the beauty and upload the photographs.”
MUNDANE MONDAY CHALLENGE #39
“Our daily lives are so mundane, we get taken over by what is immediately in front of us and we don’t see beyond that” Benedict Cumberbatch
Dolls (Mundane Monday)
Eyes staring
Almost glaring
Never moving
Only viewing
Toward the future?
Or into the past?
No one knows
What on goes
In a doll’s mind
Just be kind
You may be surprised
Or even, hypnotized
They may be mundane
Objects d’art even
Dolls in the window
But no one really knows

Christmas Celebration in a Different Style (Daily Photo 2015-12-27)
It’s a bike?
It’s a trike?
No, it’s a Super bike!
Three wheels
Check out
How it feels
Ride a trike
It’s just like a bike
Only much more
Fun!

“The skies are falling down on us!”
Christmas Celebration in a Different Style (Daily Photo 2015-12-26)
Spin that bottle
In full throttle
The ceiling covered
With all sorts of bottles
Blue and white
Shining so bright
Who ever told us
The skies would fall upon us
Failed to mention
The bottles were fastened
Into the ceiling!

Share each Friday, on your own blog, one photo…or maybe even a gallery of some of your favorite photos that you have taken during the week, that make you smile or that was a great photo capturing opportunity…anything really! And as photographers are often known to say, “The best camera is, the one that you have with you!”
“It’s the season to be jolly…”
Favourite Photo Friday, 2015-12-25
This week I would like to share a photo which was actually not yet posted on my blog, rather only on Instagram. I have been trying to stay off my blog during this holiday week and take some time off during my short stay in the gorgeous island of Lanzarote, but it seems the blog has a will of its own and keeps whispering in my ear to post 😉
There was a special moment up in the sky this week in Puerto del Carmen, which I would like to share with you all. A flashy light kind of a thing (call it a UFO if you will :p) appeared from out of nowhere and stayed a while. It seemed to be shooting a light beam into the sun and making it shine even brighter, if possible. I managed to snap this photograph with my mobile phone while peddling in the pool; lucky shot I guess!
Enjoy!

“Have yourself a merry little Christmas”
Christmas Celebration in a Different Style (Daily Photo 2015-12-25)
Warmth, happiness, sun light
What could be a merrier Yuletide
Than spending the holiday
On this most gorgeous day
The one special day of the year
At the pool, beach or a pier
Holiday celebration (Christmas season)
“How did it get so late so soon? It’s night before its afternoon. December is here before it’s June. My goodness how the time has flown. How did it get so late so soon?” Dr. Seuss
Happy Holidays and A Very Merry Xmas to One and All!
‘Twas the night before Christmas
Nothing stirred,
No sound was heard
No human, nor animal, in sight
Even the mice had taken flight
The only ones about their business
Were the little green men from Mars
They had to be really careful
Their nature a little bit fearful
For the holidays not to turn into a farce
It was their turn to spread wholly
Presents and a great amounts of jolly
In a mighty hurry
No time for blurry
Their sleigh filled
Up to the hilt
As it took off
With a big bang
And a huge puff
As they all sang
The yuletide carols
As they rolled off
Children and grown-ups
Getting lots of stuff
As the little green men
Working collectively
Their derrières off in zen
As the Xmas spirit
Now duly delivered
All around the world
At least,
That is what we heard
