Divina has pesky kid neighbors, and I’ve got a goddamn neighbor with a LOUD voice! Every morning at the ass crack of dawn (and I would know this, cause I”m up at that time EVERY day) she’s out on her deck to have a cigarette and coffee. This is fine, it’s her deck. But THEN, she gets on the phone, and calls her very old, deaf mother. I hear every fucking word she says on that phone no matter where I am in my yard, or if I’m in the loft, bedroom or kitchen of my deck. EVERY word!!!! She has this “I’ve smoked for 40 years”, gravelly, deep, witchy sounding LOUD voice and it makes me nuts! I’m glad she loves her Mom. It’s great! But love her inside your house!!

I had plans this morning of taking my coffee and my book, and going outside to sit on the balconey and relax. It’s a gorgeous, perfect weekend, weatherwise, and likely to be one of the few remaining ones we’ll have. I was just finishing up with email (computer is right off the balconey), and getting ready to go……when I hear, “Morning Mom!” *shutting all my windows*
