Turns out the KVille prop is a roof they are going to float in the bayou for a flashback scene to Katrina – like any of us want to be reminded of that! They are filming all day tomorrow so I’m sure there is going to be enough Hollywood attitude for miles. BTW my hairdresser does the main star’s – Cole Hauser – hair – so there.
I did a little jig this morning when I saw the headlines of the TP – the House overrode the veto on the water bill. Now the Senate may follow suit as early as today. Can I get an amen?
Last night, after a challenging Pilates class, S and I took the canoe out on the bayou. He had packed a delicious picnic dinner – sandwiches on homemade herb bread, chocolate chip cookies, and a cinnamon roll to boot! We paddled (ahem, he paddled) around under the crisp, cool air and twinkling lights and took a pulse of where our hearts, mind and souls are right now. The water was surprisingly warm. My mind was…
Days before Halloween, Roy, my good neighbor, erected an hommage to fall to the left of the LaLa on the bayou. Everyone and their mama have stopped to take photographs of their kids in front of this installation. Here is a pic of Jake – in the background notice the renewed copper dome of Our Lady of the Rosary Church otherwise known as Holy Rosary: Today, I get several calls a building is being erected…
Today is the birthday of a unique 8 year old – I won’t be around to say happy birthday or help blow out his candles – but i still feel him in my life – and wish to send him cyber kisses and hugs and wishes. Happy Day, you beautiful boy!

I took myself offline for about four hours today and accomplished more than most of my multitasking manic days ever provide. Chalk one up for just a simple phone line and two human beings at both ends. Naturally, the to do list that awaits is still enormous – but I can cross some major ones off the list today. Phew. Next.
Today, I have too much to do and as Flower said early this morning I need 5 heads and 8 hands to accomplish it. Loca got her first post-op long walk and gets her stitches out today – maybe I can contain that bundle of energy with purpose on my part. Late in the afternoon, my mom is to come by for a brief visit – we need to sit down and schedule a regular…
I guess every four year old has a friend you wish they didn’t and J is no exception – when he repeats what his friend says I want to march over to the friend’s mother’s house and say could you curb your child? The latest has been “what the heck” – apparently J’s friend says this over and over. I told J this is not a nice thing to say. Tonight as I was walking…
J is going through this amazing brain expansion where he has taken to telling these fabulous stories – who needs books with his mind – today it was the bats that had been living in the chimney and were entering the house but a little baby dinosaur guarded the entrance and kept them from coming in but the baby dinosaur’s dad was dead and so was the mommy dinosaur and so we had to be…
