Stormy Weather I’ve had that song dittying inside me for the past fifteen minutes. Could it have been the storm of two nights ago or was it the recollection of my lost love? Nevertheless, today I am full of an unusual melancholy. It’s crazy, this feeling, since the sky is blue with some cloudiness here … Continue reading Days of my Life #38

Days of my Life #15
I looked in the mirror a few minutes ago and was shocked at the resemblance of my current hair color to what I remember of my maternal grandmother’s curly coif when she had used a bluing agent to un-yellow her gray. Chuckles of irony emanated from deep within me. Or were they gasps of horror? … Continue reading Days of my Life #15
Days of my Life #13
Mocha is currently tap dancing in her sleep on the cushion next to the bed. Her soft shoe/paw is tapping at the cabinet abutting the cushion. This is why I am awake at 3am. I suppose I could’ve just gone back to sleep but then I got up for a glass of water, a visit … Continue reading Days of my Life #13

Her words “Think of me as your operator, I’m only helping you make … Continue reading Day 10 The Universe Provides
Day 8 – Heading to London. For more theraphi
Our day yesterday was fairly mellow...except I came down with a rotten case of laryngitis/sore throat/general crappiness. A perfect way to leave Germany. Not. I had hoped today would afford me time to visit some old haunts, alas I’m drinking hot tea, wearing a hot towel over my face when I’m not plunking away on … Continue reading Day 8 – Heading to London.

On the Road/Sky Again or do Blonds have more fun?
I'm hoping this doesn't vanish into the ether as my previous post has done. When reflecting on the disappearance i considered only briefly a "loss", then mused "there is so much more from where that came." And so here I sit, writing at a table in a very populated organic cafe on Oxford Street in … Continue reading On the Road/Sky Again or do Blonds have more fun?
Selling Max’s CJ7 – do they drive jeeps in heaven?
Judging by my title, most people who know me also know I'm finally ready to sell Maxie's infamous jeep. For those who don't know me, I can say that the JEEP has been a labor of love, grief, frustration, more love, a lot of tears, a good deal of hard earned cash and help from … Continue reading Selling Max’s CJ7 – do they drive jeeps in heaven?
Comparing physical belongings with inner emotions. Cleansing is healthy.
I'm currently visiting my wonderful son, Billy, in Durham, NC. Before I left LA I had been on a juice cleanse to clean up my inner physical body. I suppose this was a good prep for my trip. It's been a very good visit even though we haven't been out much. What? No visits to … Continue reading Comparing physical belongings with inner emotions. Cleansing is healthy.
