today is march 9th and i remembered the date hurray

i went to therapy and discussed life in ft myers... visiting my dad 's trailer park between walmart and home depot...its for him the best place on earth...i talked about visiting a community without kids.. an over 55 one and no pets allowed...very surreal.....

i wanted to photograph my aunts house ...my sister did photograph her closet and its colored dresses
red red red . pink pink pink..purple purple purple. yellow yellow yellow teal teal teal rows or colored clothing all in order in the wrap around closet my uncle built her in the manufactured over 55 village in north fort myers
her house prior was a huge stucco thing in a gated community that she sponged with violet paint and had huge barbie collections all over the place ..everywhere violet and barbies .. i was so sad when she sold and i hadn't taken photos for an imaginary show i envisioned in nyc......... my uncle hasn't married her but they have been together for years ..he was an auto mechanic and she a society lady who's father was VP of mass mutual...just photographing them could be wonderful they have so much character....... this is what ft myers is to me .... India has its holy river and city where they burn their dead and bathe.... we have Florida

my friends came to visit and stayed in my dads driveway in their vw van ..i kept asking them to come into the house and stay in the big bed on the lanai... which is really a big tin porch ...but for some reason they wanted their van... whats the difference a large tin porch or a small tin van???????

..i asked my sister about why my relatives who retired have become strange...
her suggestion as to why was because they felt they had no more power to make any change in the world...

after therapy i had to bother my friend who manages a gallery in town/northampton and made fun of the art work... without Ritalin i get a bit overbearing... but he is a lovely guy and accepts me as i am
then onto amious to have lunch...its a morocan restaurant . i chose my meal based on the nine dollars i had in my wallet
i chose lentil soup, lemon cheesecake and tea. my favorite color combinations .....lemon...cinnamon and white ....

out to car and a ten dollar parking ticket
its a wild world isn't it???

going home to listen to lilac wine ...being sung by jeff buckley......my new favorite song
