Someone else for a day

If you could be someone else for a day, who would you be, and why?

Daily Prompt

I would like to be a person who wouldn’t have many hangups. Someone different from me. Right now, I need an exoskeleton (now, Sunset) to make me move forward in life. I would be someone who is confident about their skills. People with their own businesses seem confident in what they do. Being in their shoes for at least one day would be nice. They have problems too, but at least they are not forced to apply for jobs.

I have a hard time making decisions. I wish I could make one and stick to it. But there is always something in the way, so I don’t get things done. I want to be that person who isn’t uncertain and is not worried about taking risks. The sunset hasn’t set yet. I can still be the person I wish to be for a day. It only takes longer for me to do it.

Bloganuary: Photos of sunsets

So it’s the last Bloganuary from 2023. I didn’t post every day, but I did my best. The best sunsets are where there are no trees or buildings around. The best place is on the sea, close to where I live. Taking them is difficult because you shouldn’t point your camera at the sun. There’s also a lot of glare, so you must wait for the right moment.

Here are a few sunsets I photographed (besides the blog post banner). The second photo on the right is a different kind of sunset. It was taken from a cruise ship from Stockholm, Sweden, in 2010 with my camera. Click on the photos to see them a little bigger.

That was it for the Bloganuary 2023. It was fun once again. Thanks for your likes and comments. Please do stick around. My blogging won’t stop here.

The purdy little things

“Purdy as in pretty because it’s slang.”

I like using words that sound similar. As is this purdy word. It’s a thang (thing) with slang.

It’s those purdy little things that make the world a better place. We all need something pretty when the place is grey.

I won’t use more colour on this post, even it looks purdy. It was just something I wanted to try. If you don’t try, you never know how things work. It’s been a busy week, so this post is short. This will be a weekend that will feel like a real one. Other times it would just be one day among the others. It’s been early morning from Monday to Friday. I will sleep longer this weekend.

Leave you with this photo I took with my mobile from my balcony. This is what it looked like at 7.38 am one morning this week.
