Divorce

Are we broken? Programmed to believe that we must be married to be happy and sucessful? But only to find out that we were never supposed to be.

Things

Hello Friends-

Quick update on life. My dad passed away on January 12th. He’s been pretty sick for a long time, but he had a brain anyuersm in August and has had several issues since then and he caught a lung infection in January and finally passed away. Now most of you know that I’ve never been really close but he’s still my Dad and the point is that I now have to close the door with him and never be able to re-establish a good relationship with him. I think I am at peace with this and know that I have other people in my life who love and support me and that he loved me the best that he could.

So thank you for all your wishes and for support that you have shown me in the past.

Cheers-

Raech

New Vintage Item

I struck out when I went to Silverlake last Wednesday but on Saturday I popped in to Salvation Army and found these little buggers. Instinct told me to pick them up! I did and when I googled them I found out that they are 1950’s or 60’s egg cups. So cute and it’s a complete set! So now to sell them or keep them. That is always the hard part.

Retro Art in my own home…..

Today, was a very exciting day for me! I went to breakfast and decided to do some thrifting. Well to my surprise! I found an awesome piece of art!

I saw this beautiful girl, Giselle ( my own name for her), and I knew I had to buy it, and at $7.99 for the picture I though it was such a steal!

I get Giselle home and take off the back of the frame to find it with a mat and ready to be hung. So I bought a frame at Aaron Brothers today for $17.00 and I have frame Giselle.

So…just out of curiosity I decide to look up the artist, John Luke Eastman. Well my good friend John is from the 70’s and its an original lithograph from that time period! So, I am in love with Giselle and even more now that I know she is from the 70’s! yay!

Enjoy her! I know I will
