song pairing : Roustabout by Beats Antique
Well if my lack of posts was any indication
it's been, I have to say
looking a little like this
around here the last week ...
Circus Scene painting by Alexander "Sandy" Calder
( an anniversary gift to his sister in 1926 )
Isn't this a wonderful painting ?
Ever since I saw it in person in NY
it has remained my all time
favorite
( This picture doesn't do it justice ... it's huge in person ! )
Maybe it reminds me of our life a little
( crazy yes, but there's always music at least one person smiling ! )
Well today and tomorrow...
the clowns are gone & the elephants have cleared
and I am regrouping the house and returning it to 'normal'
whatever that is !

And since I've been thinking about this painting,
I'm kind of circus inspired
...
I found this site called unearthed
and fell in love with these antique circus items !
.........
What a cool side table this circus stand would make ...
this costume would be so fun hanging somewhere too ...
or how about this carnival wheel ?
these juggling pins ...
or these carnival pins and balls ?
What fun !
Oh dear
I'm getting some ideas ....
I'd love to redo some things around here
* Whoa Nelly !*
1st things 1st
I have to clear the rings and get ready
for another week of 'performing' !
( am I the only one who feels this way ? )
and a 5 6 7 8 ...
So what are your plans
Are you sitting back and enjoying
the show
or performing amazing feats of
skill and bravery ?
All in All
I hope it is a most spectacular weekend !!!
See you again this week !
