I have been seeing some heated political blogs. We all have our beliefs and our feelings. sometimes we share them, sometimes we do not. Normally, I try hard not ti get into it all, but I want to pass along some words of wisdom that were shared with me.
Believing in any politician, is roughly equal to thinking the stripper likes you.

So in many situations, I come off as really out going and flirty. It is like a suit I can put on or take off at will. Pissing off people who run about sniffing the clouds all day, might just be a hobby. So I should not be shocked at the words that came out of a friends mouth....."I did not expect you to be like a real lady" Oh the urges I suppressed.
Any way....The sign is one I posted on a decorator site when someone asked, what signs everyone had hanging over their beds. I was sick of reading 'Bless this Home', 'Love Is Forever', etc and so I posted this. Shockingly, I wasn't banned.
The sign did hang over my bed.....for inuendo's sake, I purchased it for my gallery. I thought it made a cool sign for an artists place.

It may be the Scottish Heritage on my fathers side, but I am well known to pinch a penny until it bleeds copper. this is a front sun porch in my home. I am doing it up quick so I have a place to work on art projects while completing my studio.
Tin roofing in the ceiling from a barn I was paid to take down a few years back. The ship lap cost me fifty, and I also have two built in book shelves and a ton of trim that came with, oh a chandelier to. The floor is temporary, it is intended as a sub floor. I finished it because it will not be redone in oak for a couple years.
Since these photos were taken, the trim has gone up around all the windows, last coat is on the floors....and things will soon be set up.
Oh...the flooring is scrap...I paid $200 for a truck load, cut it in thirds for the floor and have plenty for other projects.
So this is the kind of silly stuff I get up to.

I just want to thank all of the bloggers here for the pleasure it brings reading your posts each day.
Sometimes, they are informative. Sometimes ridiculous. Often memories of some event from my own life are sparked. then it is a trip through memory lane. I like the sharing of stories with life experience. It is also good to know most everyone has a day , now and then, that sends them in a tizzy.
It has been a lovely little community here and I feel blessed to know your blogs.

After being out of work for multiple surgeries and recovery, I am back to the workforce. Gosh this seemed like forever and a day.
I'll be starting back in Home Health for Bay. This was an easy hire, because I worked with another facility for many years that partners with them. It will be different having only a handful of people a day vs. roughly 60 to somewhere over 200. The pay may not be as high, but it is not much lower and fro substantially lower responsibilities. Good trade.
Now before you go on with, "I thought you were and artist" Art is a fickle mistress. I need healthcare benefits, a job I can list on bank documents. Working for someone else gives me some security. Should the year come when sales stick (and that happens), I have a regular income to fall back on.
It will be good to be back.

I left the drive fully intending to just run a quick trip to the grocer's. I was watching the rollers out on the lake as they crested, had to be at least ten footers, surging waves. It was windy, chilly, rainy, no one would be in danger of drowning, no one would be at the beach. No one would be at the beach......the blinker switches as if under its own power, it is my turn. I turn right instead of left, no one will be at the beach, I smile. I will soon be at the beach. So I was.
The waves were still tall as they beat against the shore with the rhythm of a universal heart. The power could be felt from head to toe. the winds came with the waves almost as if it were the driving force behind them. There is a familiar chill to the air. Winter tides are coming.
Every crash of the white tip monsters pounded away the last warm vestiges or Indian Summer. Soon the snows and the ice will come. Tucking away all things living, beneath blankets of snow and sheets of ice.
today though, today an escape, while the last warmth of summer battles the cold coming of winter and tosses long locks about.

I was out with a friend earlier this evening. We dined at a very nice restaraunt, listened to good music, had an evening stroll, and pleasant conversation. We are friends and business associates, we do this a couple times a month. Then there are lunch meetings, breakfasts, coffees......lol
We sound like a dating couple, but we are simply friends. We enjoy time spent together.
I have friends that tell me, men and women cannot "just be friends", but I have a lot of just friends. I have friends that tell me, men always want something, they don't invest their time unless they do.
This is a confusing thought. I have lots of male friends. Let's face it, I do a lot of guy stuff. You make guy friends that way.
So if guys only hang out because they want something, What is the "something"? And why am I missing the signals

You ended our friendship,
So as an offering I tossed the jewels into the lake.
An offering and a prayer for peace to come to you
I no longer stand in the way of your happiness
I wish you all the best the world may offer
YOU, ended our friendship.
I have simply respected your wishes.
Good Bye
PS...You now own the sediment in the bottom of the lake for it wears the jewels.....enjoy!
Just to clear confusion.....this was not a romantic break up that left me crushed. This person uses multiple handles and so, one or more will read the message even though many are blocked .
