Between you and me, I don’t think I have any comfort zones anymore. Steve and I had created a comfort zone together, and were very happy, writing, working, and eating “comfort food” – pasta, Steve’s gravy, and his special homemade meatballs along with olives, baguettes, salami, and fresh ground parmesan cheese or Romano. We didContinue reading “COMFORT ZONES”

This year, the American Club of the Riviera (ACR) arranged its luncheon in the very middle of the Croisette, right in the midst of all “the players” and atmosphere of the Cannes International Film Festival, on Saturday, May 12, 2018. We were invited to have lunch with ACR members and guests at the Vegaluna Beach RestaurantContinue reading “CANNES 2018!”
“THE YACHT AND I”
Reality checks are the pits. Every time I have one (that I recognize – haha), I feel that “pit” in bottom of my stomach. Yesterday, as I was working on this post, the “Thoughtful Mind Inspiring Quote for April 28th, 2018” (that I receive each day by email) was the following, “All things are subjectContinue reading ““THE YACHT AND I””
A MIXED BAG
Today, I am trying to “let go”. Don’t misunderstand, I do this every day!! It is my nature to hold on and try to control. Haha. If you don’t believe me, ask my kids. And, when things don’t go the way I want, I try to “fix” it, and when I cannot, I get “upset”. Continue reading “A MIXED BAG”
TRUTH, OR LIE?
Next week is my birthday – my annual time to take stock. Where have I been; where am I now; where am I going; what matters to me at this time in my life? Is there a truth that fits my reality? Aphorism of the week – “Man keeps looking for a truth that fitsContinue reading “TRUTH, OR LIE?”
IN MY COPIOUS FREE TIME….
During those moments when I am not thinking or over-thinking everything else, I ponder “wisdoms” or “philosophical quotes” or “Up to My A.. in Aphorisms”. The one that is getting my attention this week goes like this, “If you could really accept that you weren’t ok, you could stop proving you were ok. If youContinue reading “IN MY COPIOUS FREE TIME….”
A PROJECT WORTH DOING
Steve Orlandella loved to write. By July, 2016, he was on a roll – brimming with ideas for his blog “Stevespeak”, his next novel CASINO KILLER, A Vic Landell Mystery, and witty, satiric, sarcastic Facebook posts. He had fun writing, then reading and re-reading what he had to say. I think he had more funContinue reading “A PROJECT WORTH DOING”
SUPER LAWYER – January 2018
Forgive me, time out while I brag. This January 2018, I was named in “The Annual List of Top Attorneys” in Southern California 2018 Super Lawyers, in the top 5% of lawyers, as voted by my peers. Every year, Super Lawyers evaluates lawyers across the country for its annual list of top attorneys. Each candidateContinue reading “SUPER LAWYER – January 2018”
JANUARY 13TH, SATURDAY, in Nice. 2018.
Patience is not my strong suit. I have spent most of my life trying to conquer my need for instant gratification. Do it now; figure out how to deal with the consequences later. Another way to say that is, stick my hand into the fire; then figure out if it is hot. Or, out ofContinue reading “JANUARY 13TH, SATURDAY, in Nice. 2018.”
FOOD FOR THOUGHT
Food for thought….. A client of mine, Len Indianer, sent me these interesting predictions in an email, yesterday. It was an email sent to several people. I am passing it along. More about Len Indianer in a minute. “INTERESTING PREDICTIONS…. In a recent interview, the Head of Daimler Benz (Mercedes Benz) said their competitors are no longerContinue reading “FOOD FOR THOUGHT”
