I Went, Did You.....

And while I was there I ran into a an old local beach bum.
Meet ' Lenny Lizard Skin,'
Lenny just couldn't seem to pull himself out of the sun. 
It was so sunny , yet cool and breezy at the beach. 
An amazingly beautiful day. 

Lenny said; " Put on that sunscreen I tell you" , " or you'll end with skin like me!! "
( I did )
But, I did get all wrapped up in the beauty of the day.... my writing, walking & listening to my ipod loaded with my favorite brazillian jazz. 
After chatting with Lenny ( which was beginning to feel like forever) I thought he'd never move off that post and away from me. He didn't. 
That's if you don't count when that nut job jumped off the post, following me down to the surf trying to walk with me, while ruining my pace. He couldn't keep up, and he kept complaining about the sand being too hot for his little feet. If I didn't let him ride on my shoulder for the duration of my walk, I would have burned zero calories.
The walk was wonderful.....

So,  as much as I enjoyed his company, with the exception of constant negative remarks about my skin, the hot sand , fat people, too skinny people, screaming kids... you name it.
It was time to head home. 
I did , and inspite of Lenny , and in addition to Lenny, I had a great day.

Late Sunday Afternoon       xxxxx

Do It This Morning

I am,  and this will be my morning walk..............
This beach is down the street from me, I get so lost in my tiny world that I forget to go to the place that makes me feel the best. Why would I do that ? It is only after I get to the beach, that I could kick myself for not doing this more, and more, and more.
I mean, even a bad day at the beach is still beautiful. Stormy weather at the beach is dreamy.
They have replaced the grass recently with ' putting green ' grass, so it is like a green velvet carpet.  And the sand is new as well.
Imagine...getting new sand !
Hey, but it works just fine for me. And it is without question, better.
Will you do something, or go somewhere today that makes you feel good about life and yourself ?
C'mon... if you are reading this, I know you deserve it !!

House's House

I always seem to watch his show...........without planning to.
I like the concept behind this kitchen, It seams like way too much kitchen for House. 
Yes ?   No ?
Somehow, I can't see him hobbling around that kitchen making a gourmet dinner. Chop Chop Chop goes the cilantro, and into the salad........."red or white wine my dear , we are having fish in
a bouillabaisse ?"
Nah, I can not see that happening.
I think he is more likely to  grab the sandwich right out of your hand and eat it.
I get a kick out of 'House.'
This is sooooo ' guys ' living room.   
And I might as well say it; YUCKO.
The Set Decorator Danielle Berman has really done a great job planting his TV personality into his home and office.

A Horse-Womans Sitting Room


This room looks like a horse-woman may regularly crash down here on the sofa, after a hard ride. She might rest her polished,  yet slightly dirty boots up on the rugged cocktail table, then finally have that tall glass of iced tea ( with mint) that she has been longing for.

No longer parched, she hits 'play' , and the song 'Moon River' flows out of the speakers, she closes her eyes just to listen to her song.........but in a moment, she is gone.
zzzzzzzzzzzzz.....

Just imagine how it would be if each of us,

If only for a few hours of everyday,We could be in a space that is our very own.A place that is exactly the way we want it to be

Surrounded by all the things we wanted to see,

The atmosphere we wanted feel, smell and the sound we wanted to listen to.
