Yesterday I googled the address of James Dean’s star, which is 1719 Vine St. Armed with Windex and a cleaning cloth I drove over to Hwood on a mission. Once I got there I walked up and down Vine Street in the address searching for the star. What I found was a group of stars that had been removed and replaced with wooden stars. Apparently the stars were removed for construction and will be replaced sometime this year.
Instead I drove to Venice Beach. I had been to Abbott Kinney Street for a photo shoot for Hallie for Vert Badeut, but never down to the beach. I saw a variety of odd people that Venice Beach is famous for. One man, I assume homeless, was wrapped up sitting in a reclining type chair, in the middle of the sidewalk, sound asleep with an angelic smile on his face. His smile was captivating. I envied the inner peace I assumed he was feeling, asleep with the warm sun in his face, not a worry in the world. Again I said assumed. Everyone has problems.

Friday I took Jonathan and Hallie to Universal Studios for the day. I was unable to really participate because my neck was killing me. My shoulder/neck muscles had a major knot/cramp whatever…it hurt. I took them anyway. I hurt in bed or out of bed, so I might as well have fun with the kids, right. I put the kids on a ride then I would wait for them at the exit while reading my book. I finished The Alchemist and started reading Blood Junction.
We stayed until the the park closed. They had a good time. Jonathan is so responsible when dealing with Hallie. He is just the best big brother ever. We all had a good time.

Jonathan is a life saver. Tonight he has cleaned the kitchen all by himself without me even asking! He brought a ton of mail for me to sort through. I have a tendency of sticking all mail behind a wicker basket in the kitchen. Out of sight, out of mind. Not a fool proof system, when you have things to pay.
Jonathan even brought me a glass of ice water with an orange wedge and a bowl of cut up fruit in a nice China dish. I wonder how much money he needs or where he wants to go tomorrow?? :)
