Far away places
The sun is back, but there is a bit of chill in the air, the way I like it. I was at Choob's site this morning, and I checked out his new set of pictures from his trip to Italy and Morocco. I was taken by them, and it was such a delicious treat, the colors the simplicity, the images all raw and natural, I know I would be keeping them in some corner of my mind and in time, they do to me the inspiration I need, and give me so much to write. I am greatful that he travells and so greatfull that he shares since I am earthbound here, he gives me the eyes to see, and I klike his vision. He does have his own voice in his images that he could probably publish a book of his photography.
The girl with green Apple hair, I watched CLOSER again last week, and I enjoyed the acting, specially Alice, there is such a truth to her acting, so clear and seamless. I have the new CD by Fiona Apple also, I read a good review about it and bought it. if you like music that is not the same old thing, if you like refreshing tempos, and lyrics, the arrangements, its fabulous. specially the first track.
I have so much fun helping my son with his projects, my wife thinks I enjoy them more than he does and take over and before you know it the project is mine, and has to be done the best I can. NO I do not do them, he does, then I go over them with him and polish them, and nothing is better that the satisfaction of a job well done. He wants me to finish the basement for him and his sister, so I suggested that he should find a site on the Internet on HOW TO FINISH THE BASEMENT, get us the guide and we can do it together, the four of us, I always wanted to find a way for him and I to make something together and this would be a fabulous idea, I will pursue it and may be this spring and summer, yeah why not. I am a klutz and so is he, and that should make it more fun.
I miss so many things these days, and then I try not to think about them, and just be happy for all I got and god knows I got a lot. I miss writing my story, my characters, Malcolm, Sara, Choob, Sophie and Brian. She wants me to finish the rewrites, and now He also is nudging me, he knows I need to be pushed, I'm a tempremental artist after all.
There's a shiny coin in my pocket, and it feels good when I rub my finger against the smooth surface of it. I have images of a bird inside her nest on top of a tower in my head, and Blue mosaics, and the dust that engulfs the ceramics, and the simple pleasures of colors, specially oranges and rusts and the medium blues, life is close, and the noise and warmth of the Bazaars are so soothing, I see the sunrise coming across the blue sky, and then I carry the day and let the sun melts in the ocean as the colors justify the beauty of the sunset. I miss the scent of fresh baked bread, and the taste of tick yogurt. I miss the tinge of raw milk on my tongue, as it smells of the skin and the wool, and the warmth of the life that has brought it to me. I dream of far away places and the hues of Saffron, and aqua blue, the taste of ginger and honey, and the heavy scents of the bazaars in far away places. I am awake dreaming.

That should be a fun project, the remodeling of your basement. I hope you take pictures and post the progress of the work!
