See, the mountains kiss high heaven, And the waves clasp one another;
Sitting in Druckers patisserie in the Dolphin centre having a breakfast muffin and an Americano. I like it here as you can see the world go by cocooned in your coffee place, sort of invisible. Some of the people walking by leave a lot to be desired.
I digress, Susan is having her nails done in preparation for her trip to Florida next week, so it seemed like a good time to wrIte a blog.
Last night we went to a Abba dinner and dance, needless to say I did not dancing but there were some amazing outfits, all dresses like Abba, loud Abba music and too much wine saw us only leaving just before midnight. I must admit it was good to hear Abba live and see what a following they still have..

Actually psychology has defined happiness as subjective well-being however some theorists disagree with this and instead promote the idea of the meaningful life being as important or more important than a happy one.
And the sunlight clasps the earth, And the moonbeams kiss the sea;--
I love tranquil solitude, and gentle society, that is quiet and good. The things I strive for are always there if I look close enough, so I would put my self on the same leave as Denmark. Where do you really see your self?
People are getting fatter, I am not sure our bones in our legs were designed to carry all this excessive weight. I just counted 10 people walking passed and 4 were obese, 3 just plain fat and the rest cubby, not one normal weight among them. Sorry fat people but you are taking up more space then you should.

Thanks for cool blog
