Shmoney Honey

Hey Wifa.

Another busy, but productive day. 

I pretty much spent all day trying to figure out these crates again. I am going to need 7 sheets of sanded plywood, 5  8 ft 2 x 4's and 2 8 ft 1 x 4's. And that is just the lumber. Tomorrow I am going to a place called Tharco Packing to see if I can get Ethafoam. If that works out, it should seal the deal and I can start to focusing on production. I think the Houston stuff will be relatively easy. I found some pre-made boxes at the Deeps today, which leaves the Crystals and By Hook or By Crook. The weekend has felt long but I think I made some good head way. Hopefully, I can be just as fortunate with the vinyl.

Crates is not all I did today. I did manage to get a couple of walks in. The first one was a jaunt through the neighborhood. Barnum is always interesting. There were moments today when I felt like I was walking in San Jose del Cabo. Some of the houses are so similar. I told you earlier that I met a man while I was photographing his "church" that he made for his wife. He was a proud , pleasant, and friendly guy. Very eager to share his projects. He was obviously not the richest man, but he worked hard to craft his home as he liked. He kept telling me that people didn't see value in his projects and his house need to be changed. I sympathized with him and told him house was very beautiful. After exchanging pleasantries, I left and circled back to another house I had passed on my way to Federal. It was a cool house that has this very prominently placed dog on the porch. I took some pictures of it when I first passed it, but didn't realize I was on the wrong ISO, so the picture were blurry. When I came back to the house there was an old gentleman sitting in front of the porch. Feeling charged from my last encounter, I engaged the man and asked if I could take a picture of the dog. He seemed confused and manage to tell me that he didn't speak english. I smiled and said "perro" pointed to the statue and then my camera and he gave me the blessing to take the picture. After than I cruised home and went to the Depot.

I had pizza for dinner. Ate the whole thing, I guess I was pretty hungry. After dinner, I took the dogs to Wash. They loved it. Super pulley. We dipped their toes and Funf got bouncy in the usually spot. He kept stopping to sniff or pee then he would sprint to the end of the leash and bounce back to me. I don't know what gets into him, but I think it is awesome. After the walk, I got some frozen yougurt ;) and came home. Uola rode with her head out the whole way home.

That pretty much sums up my day. 

I wish you could be here. I miss talking to you. I hope you got some good rest!


















This guy is like The Weeknd, been listening to it during the day, pretty good.

This song is crazy. Bobby Shmurda. It's all hyphy, maybe better in the afternoon. The shooting hand gesture is so menacing. It's in a lot of music videos these days.



Love you wifa!

  1. Hi love,

    It is so great to get your pictures. I am always amazed by your eye. You have such a specific and unique way of finding and composing shots... its like receiving a little gift every morning. That dog sculpture is crazy. Is it hand painted? It looks so... and is that a fast food restaurant table in the front yard of the house? Our neighborhood is so crazy. And that image of The Grey, he is so crazy and feral. The basketball hoop is pretty great as well.

    Anyway, I'll email you later on... I've got to get to class.

    I love you so so so so so much. xoxoxo

    Your Wife
