the love of the season

I love the start of the summer months.
more walkabouts, cool patio dining,did I mention excellent summer wines! I seriously hope it doesn't suck this year. But I guess that's up to me to make it the best.
anyway, I'm hitting the tail end of the dc film fest this week. so many choices in a day.
gotta go to the gym too and I barely have time for both. hmmm... want to look great but want to enrich the senses too. oh well, can't have it all; or can you?
I Hope that you enjoy this beautiful day!

xoxo

afternoon...

okay I've had my Easter Morning oatmeal, granola & raisins; I have eaten the rest of the quart of ice cream I bought last night; I don't have enough quarters to complete all of my laundry today; I am ready to nap!; I didn't defrost the cornish hens so I guess I will eat a pizza or lean cuisine instead. see Post #189 - Easter Meal 2005-no different

Last night I dreamt I was lost in a dark subway system -people were murdered at the hand of an individual who desired to make their situation better.The figure was represented by a fictional tv character, Tony Soprano. There was no exiting the system. every direction that seemed like an exit was another line.
finally, i step off of the actual train to see where I am (lower manhattan) and the train takes off with all of my belongings. I chase the train only to get lost again.

hmmm....

good riddance

Yesterday I began my ritual of the seasonal clothing switcharoo.
Only a few of my close friends understand the drama generally related to this task.
This year I tackled it alone. No one to ridicule me for the ancient artifacts I kept hemmed up in my closet. Yes, I had a sweater that dated back to 5th grade. 25 years later, I mustered up the courage to get rid of it for good!

This is the beginning of what I gave to goodwill:
image
By the time I stopped for the day I had 5 large trash bags and the box full of clothing that I had to high tail to the goodwill before donation time ended for the day. I can't believe that I held on to these things for so long. Considering that my sister and my friend Lisa made me throw out so much stuff before I moved here.

Feels good. I still have more stuff to go through, like shoes and what not.

I do hate the fact that they mark up their donations so high @ the goodwill. I know the revenue goes back to good use with training people and providing for the not so fortunate & what have you. So after I plead with the donations men to take my stuff since I was the last person to arrive right @ 8pm ( i think he only took my junk because he said I smelled like I just got out of the shower-weird), I go inside to find that for $90.00 I ccould have my very own used Kmart quality bookshelf complete with missing parts. If I had an extra $10, I could put the entire $100.00 towards a broken desk, all of the same quality as the bookshelf.

I wonder how much they will charge for the Christian Dior wool coat?

Now it's only too bad that I didn't save all of those stretch leggings with lace from the 80's as I see they have made a return in the fashion circuit.
