Bring It On!!!

I have to tell you
good things are happening.

I am sending signals out to the universe 

that I want, and am ready for new opportunities.

Am I suddenly seeing what was already there ?

or.....

 are they being sent ? 

Something happened at work
 that is absolutely the lowest move
I have ever witnessed in my professional career.

And it happened to me.

When a few words came out of my boss's { and the owner } mouth.

It was shocking. 

Yes.

And so unbelievable to me
that something inside me shut down.

I wasn't upset.

But, I must admit to you that

I had to reach down and pick up my jaw off the floor.

The details are irrelevant....{but i will tell you anyway}

and trust me, you would tell me to pack my things up. 

The next day before a media room project
that I had been working on was supposed to close {sold}

{for 86,000.00 of which they - the company i work for -
had to invest $0.00 - it was all custom work designed my ME }

In a calm and mature {hahaha} way
I stood up to the owner 

when she asked me about the project
and "was it closing tonight?"

Of course 

this is all about money, 

and not paying me my pathetic commission.

If these people can't mark everything up 100% 

they take commission away from you {the salesperson}.

They do it because they can.

This is a 'right to work' state.

Anyway ....when she asked me about closing the big sale....

I asked her;

"what exactly would be my motivation?"

"you have taken the commission away from me on $64,000.00 of it?"

"that's not right, you have had to buy nothing....

to gain this money"

"And if you try and change anything in this media room by so much as by 1inch,

you will be able to sell no media chairs."

Suddenly she said to me;

{while picking her up her jaw off the floor}

" I never said that " {oh yeah? is someone telling a twisted little fib here?}

"no, you just get 1/2 your commission"

hahahaha

No way.

I have a witness. 
The salesperson who turned the job over to me 
was in the room when she said it.

What's that line from the movie with Jack Nicholson?

" hey lady"

 "you can't sell crazy here" 

"we're all stocked up"

Don't even try to pull that crazy making crap on me!

I say; 

"Bring it on baby!!"

"GIVE ME YOUR BEST SHOT!!!!"

I am ready.

There is something big, bright and shiny 

coming down the road and heading straight towards me.

I just have to be ready to go.

I am.

It is my time.

Thank you C.S.

Do You Like Limestone?

And iron work?

And casement windows?

And awesome stone work and detailing??

I am not wrong...

come along with me and look at this place.

Perfect Floors

I thought that this was a beautiful space-

so much so

 that I didn't feel the need to post a room that has been decorated

and tweaked to my taste or to yours.

This is gorgeous naked.

NO?

And if you don't get to Paris much....

this is what is all around you.

Actually,

this is why you need to get out of the house more.....

and maybe get over there.

Yesterday was my birthday-

{i'll alert the media!!! hahahaha}

 I should only age like this masterpiece of a building.

Sometimes-

well... almost always....

I think it is more interesting to look at an empty space 

It is my blank canvas and I paint it in my head.

The Doors!

What can you see in this space?

I see a black grand piano 

 Charles Aznavour

  singing 

'SHE'

and pygmy date palms

 in giant oriental fish bowls on stands.

I guess I am a romantic at heart.

Well.... where interiors are concerned anyway.

XXX's

I love him!!

This is one of my favorite songs by him.

I love The Barn Rooms At The Farmhouse Inn

Fresh food and fresh interiors.

Not because I am a horsewoman.....

but I love the use of painted sliding/rolling barn doors

 in residential design.

I have used this element ( the rolling door )

in several difficult situations where a room needed to be divided

yet a pocket door was out of the question.

Also I have used this for closet doors.

It looks sharp.

I promise.

It is a pocket door {on the outside}

that adds a great deal of character to a space.

And they don't need to be white, or in the trim color of a room.

Try lacquered Chinese red.

Talk about the 'WOW FACTOR'

...... that's a guarantee! 

I love them!!!

Your thoughts?

ps

... it doesn't need to be a barn door.

I have had rolling doors done with stained glass, frosted glass.....

the possibilities are endless.

The way the door is finished and the handles

 will determine the design direction that you wish to go.

"The inn’s owners, fifth-generation Sonoma County farmers (and siblings) Catherine and Joe Bartolomei, know that you can’t start a day of hard work without a good breakfast. So I begin the day with apple sweetened ever so lightly with autumn honey."
