I bet Malena is very happy to be home again, with temps a breezy 119 in LA this week. I thought we had it bad at 100, but 119 sounds like the sort of temp one could BAKE things in….This is one year I am ready for it to be winter. ( and not JUST because I will have a hot tub! )
Paul and I are playing again this week at Charlie’s Pub, Friday and Saturday 7:30 to 11:30 without the added joy that was Lumberjack Days , it is air conditioned , and we tend to have a LOT of fun.
I have been working on this Wolery House this week and learning how much I don’t know about so many things every day. I bought a Fridge, Microwave and Freezer. My fridge is very tiny because I want to put another door in the kitchen and the only other place to put a fridge is rather small, but I think it will work quite well. I went and picked out carpet, for the bedroom, office and stairs and LAMinate for a wood floor in what Malena calls ” The Romance Room ” , then it was suggested the carpet was kind of pricey, so I checked another place and the carpet was the same but the LAMinate floor was way cheaper, so I started all over AGAIN, but now I think I have it. Deep Purple for the office and Deep Green for bedroom and stair’s, and a really dark LAMinate floor for ye olde Romance Room.
I found my kitchen table and chairs HERE if you want to see them. The set is called, sadly ” The BOOM BOOM ROOM…..
I have the coolest doorbell in the world, hands down, and my lovely chandelier is up. I’ll take some pics for you soon.
It is really starting to get fun now as things get painted, walls come down , and I am getting things for it. It is starting to feel like ME, a whole space where it is all ME. I am loving the choosing, arranging , conferring that is going on. When I walk in now I am feel all my stress and worries and work or whatever melt away. ( except for the part where I walked to the basement and found torrential rains tend to come IN ) It is like a surprise that keeps on coming, the good bits, the rain. Chris is coming in a couple of weeks to finish up the recording and we re going to record, due to the wonders of a portable studio, right in my dining room with the tin ceiling.
Making magic and music right in my very own house.
Doesn’t get any better than this.
Love and home, Lorraine
