I Want to Draw on Sidewalks & Walls

image

I took the above with my phone’s camera on my way to the movies Sunday.

Some would say vandalism; I say Urban Art.

When I finally get around to making my bucket list, painting something on a wall or sidewalk is going to be on it.

Mmmm…this diet double fudge chocolate soda is the best. Seriously it can take the edge off better than a vodka martini with top shelf hooch and three fat olives.

What a week it has been so far. I am so looking forward to brunch with the ladies Sunday. After which I’ll have a photostroll, bit of shopping, and maybe a movie.

Speaking of movies, I Want to Live just started. This is a minimum three hankie film.

Till tomorrow.

a few of my favorite things

I was the only one in the family who never wore a watch.  My father, uncle and brother would sooner have left the apartment without their shoes.

Grandma’s wristwatch was always set five minutes ahead; the magical talisman that kept her punctual all her life.

About ten years ago I spotted the watch in the photo above in a SoHo jewelry shop, and had to have it. The owner was a business acquaintance, and I got a real deal on it.  When do I wear it? When I’m feeling special  – know what I mean?

My very first cellular phone.  And I didn’t even want one at the time, can you believe it? 

My Grandmother spoke to my Uncle Peter for the last time on this phone, so it has a special place in my treasure box.

I wear jewelry about once every two years.  When I do I love big glitzy pieces.  These dragonflies are my favorites.

My dear friend Lissa had this pin hand-painted as a surprise for me.  The artist used a baby photo of my daughter Josephine.   My baby turned 29 on the 30th of April.

Sync is a four letter word around here tonight

I can not and will not sync another thing.  First thing tomorrow morning I am at Staples buying an old-fashioned five subject notebook with pockets and tabs. And you can type that into whatever web-based or mobile app you got thank you very much.

Those of you who read this blog know I am a die-hard gadget junkie, but there are some things I just have to do with good ole pen and paper. 

With that decided I can now take a few deep breathes, close my eyes, and take a walk within. 

Namaste
