Here I am again, still sad about Kahea. The funeral was very lovely, as lovely as can be. We laid her to rest on a hill in Lincoln City Oregon over looking the Pacific Ocean to Hawaii where she spent her summers. She over looks the beach where she and I played when she was a little girl. It was a beautiful day on the Coast and the sunset was stunning, as if it knew what we needed.
I have also been taking A LOT of photos. My friend Erik needed some head shots for commercial work and also some shot of his artwork for applying to shows.
My nephew Drew showed up yesterday and we hung out in the beautiful sunshine that only a late September day can bring.
Here a a few shots....
I dreamed,
Bruce Springsteen and I where on a rope swing. Dusk, under the branches of a gnarly old tree, we each held a piece of the rope opposite each other and leaned our bodies out with our heads thrown back. We laughed joyfully and I looked beyond his face to the deep, envelope of the evening sky and through holes in the wide arms of the tree I winked at the twinkling stars behind his head.
He looked at me with a sudden realization and said, "You are AWESOME"
I kid you not. Sleep, its a good thing
Like this ruffled scarf.
It's Thursday, I know....
I have a self portrait too. The kitchen re-model is coming right along, oh yeah, I haven't said much about that have I? Well, Tom is re-modeling the kitchen. Today we went to pick out cabinets.....
So, I get laid off and today I just found out I have a mandatory 3 fucking hour session I have to sit through to get my stupid unemployment. sigh.....
I am becoming increasingly despondent, achy, tired....I think I am depressed. I want some good news damnit!
Anyway, I was on my way to my car and I ran into this guy who was skating through these barriers and I had to get a photo because he was landing on his board every time! He was stoked and so was I......
Okay, I know its self portrait Thursday so here is a shot of me with the awesome new bag on my arm,
