My Kind of T.G.I.F. ~ ~

* * * * *

There are no words to describe this destination.
Just let you head play and dream
while I run away for the weekend.

It is amazing (a.m.a.z.i.n.g)
what can be accomplished
when cable is 'out'.

Who knew?

Chalkboard Labels ~

* * * * *

They look so cool.
I drooled.
"What could I use these for?", I asked.
Hmm.
I haven't answered myself yet
but I though I'd share with you
in case you find a purpose for them.

And if so, take a pic and send to me.
You're welcome.

Art on Mondays -

Mrs. Wesley Winchester and Walter
arrive in West Palm in the same manner
in which they always arrive everywhere - with lots of baggage.

Love love the art of Vivienne Strauss - and her 'gentle' poke at the socialite world.

The Truth

* * * * *

This is a crock!
I'm working on nothing.
Except 3 books.
Ya.
I can't read just one.
I take on three at a time.
and when I do,
I'm on a mission...
so posts will be spotty till I
finish these...

I LOVE getting lost in stories, don't you?

* * * * *

97 degrees...100% humidity...

* * * * *
Got things to do this weekend;
places to go;
people to see...

I don't see where I can squeeze in quick trip to
even an inland lake this weekend...

but I WILL be near a water hose and
I will employ it's gifts!!!

I find it frustratingly perplexing.

You might have to be from Michigan for this:
Remember your first "Up North" trip
when your parents stopped at some
cute little "Indian Reservation" Store
and bought the kids (and themselves)
a pair of moccasins with coloured beading
in an American Indian graphic design
on top of the shoe?

Well....these are not them.

want. want. covet. want.

Having Withdrawls

* * * * *

I miss Leland.

I may have to sneak my way up there for a day or two.

* * * * *

It's Monday Already . . .

* * * * *

Let's just see how the work week plays out...

Could be Fun.

It's Friday and It's Too Damn Hot

* * * * *

I told you I can't think in this weather.

I can hardly stand up straight.

I certainly don't breathe well...

why are you here?

Maybe next week.

Namaste.

Only IN Water Will Do

* * * * *
it's too hot.
a picture NEAR water wouldn't do.
or ON water, like in a boat.
or AROUND, as in,
"the lake is around the bend"
or SEE, like see the ocean.

need water.
and not a hot shower.
off to find the water hose
to hold over my head
and get IN.

I can't get this song out of my head.

So I'm hoping - if I post it -
knowing I can click here to listen
anytime I want
maybe I can let something else
sneak in my pea brain:

just listen and tell me...
did you sit still thru the entire performance?

if you did, we're probably not related

Brain Waves

* * * * *
I have none.

It's 97 degrees.
Tomorrow with the heat index
it will be over 100

We live in Michigan
and my brain doesn't work
when it's Sahara hot.

Be back as soon as it dips closer to 80's.

Low 80's.

7-6-2010 - back to work and it's too hot

* * * * *

yes - I've been known to take a water hose to my head
or
just jump in the lake!

You have to love a nation that celebrates its independence every July 4, not with a parade of guns, tanks, and soldiers who file by the White House in a show of strength and muscle, but with family picnics where kids throw Frisbees, the potato salad gets iffy, and the flies die from...happiness.
You may think you have overeaten,
but it is patriotism.

WooHoo.......

Respite

* * * * *

Is it?
Was it
all worth it?

It's the busiest time of year at the office
and now more than ever
I'd like to take a break

before I break.



Maybe I just need a good night's sleep.

And a morning coffee in a restaurant
instead of the make up counter
in my bathroom.
