Here's lookin at you Kid: Just Like Bogie & Bacall


I
Insomnia has me as I watch one of my favorite movies. I love Key Largo. Lauren Bacall and Humphrey Boggart ahh, the love they share. So beautiful, so rare, so short.

There is beauty in silence. No Words. No sounds. Just, a look, or a glance. I remember the first time I saw Key Largo. I wanted to be Lauren Bacall. There is a moment in the film that Bacall looks at Bogie.  It was a look no words could comprehend. Bacall owns that look, that moment.  It is her look and everything in the scene depends on that whisper of a glance. Each and every time I watch Key Largo that look steal my heart. To write of silence is to write of a unique place and time that needs no words. It’s true love.

Just a glance, a silent glance, that needs nothing to make it beautiful.

I hired a new stylist and Pinterest is her name.

 
 
 
 
If it’s matched up on Pinterest then I match it up in my own closet and bam a style is born. I love having my own personal stylist. Just like the wealthy and movie stars, I have a personal stylist that goes the extra mile to help to look incredible and it shows.
I don't know when I have matched so often, been compliment so many times. It's awesome to have a stylist.

Glittery Heels, Peanut Butter Cookies and a Glittery Clutch




Glittery heels, peanut butter cookies and a cute clutch are what I am obsessing over this today.
 
Pinterest always makes DIY projects look so easy. Yet, each time I try one my clothes and I turn out to be the project. Until you try and get industrial strength glue and glitter out your hair no DIY project is complete.






I love hot, fresh out the oven, peanut butter cookies. This might be why I bake a tray of peanut cookies while sitting close to the oven with a frosty glass of milk and eat them as they come out the oven.  
 

I want a super glittery clutch just because I can. No other reason. Just a want that’s slowly turning into a need.

National Parks, Love Affairs and Destiny


 

 

Like all great love affairs mine began with a glance. That’s all it took. Our eyes met across a crowded waiting room floor, as I sat and waited patiently for my name to be called by the nurse. I gave a shy smile and slowly waved as you did a two-step across the waiting room to my arms. I’d never known the feelings you elicited from me as I looked upon your beauty.

Love affairs, the great ones happen and I am now a part of one of the greatest. I confess. I am in love the landscape of National Parks. I am not sure when or how it happened but now that it has, I find myself mimicking Bacall and Bogie as I find destiny in the arms of a park landscape.
Here's lookin at you kid

I am Abby and I am in Love with a National Park

Writing and theFight for Abigail's Soul! To Dramatic?


“These are the times that try men’s souls” are so said Thomas Paine on December 23, 1776.

I made it back for day two of blogging and yes, it tried my soul to think of a topic and  then to find the time to sit and blog. This just might be why I start and stop. But then again it’s most likely not. I am a writing bum. One who’s a lazy writer and just as proud of it as if I was the Harper Lee of writing.

I just realized, Ok, that’s a lie, I’ve always been a lazy writer. I am often motivated, yet, hardly dedicated to my craft. I want to actually be like a unique and beautiful landscape carved from the hand of a greater power who lays out before the world the wonders of my spectacular writing voice.

Trust me it is spectacular. I see it in my head. No misspelled words, lots of beautiful sentences that make the Oracle of love wish that he were being stroked by my fingers. Too much? I know it is but hey. It’s me and “I just got to be free, wishing words of my magic portion of love…..”


Oh, well, I am here and I proud to call myself a dedicated writer of two whole days.

Same time tomorrow? It’s a date.

~Welcome To The Janitors Closet~


                            ~Welcome To The Janitors Closet~
 
Welcome.

I have again opened the Janitors Closet. Last year I decided I wanted to blog daily and that I did; ok, it was only in my feeble mind. I am hoping that counts toward a success?!?

This year, I again ,made a commitment to  start blogging on today, May, 5, 2014.
Therefore, the Janitors Closet is again OPEN.

I am not sure how this is going to go. But hey, at least I got this far.
 
I am Abby and I am in the Janitors Closet Again.
