bentwood....

the Thonet Bentwood chair

is an iconoclastic cafe chair

made from 6 pieces of heat steamed 

wood curved into a light weight,

comfortable, beautiful chair.

they are true classics that have 

a lot of history but still feel very modern

today.

books....

there is something to this time of year that makes you want to

curl up in a comfortable chair,

in your favorite sweats, 

with a roaring fire going in the fireplace

with a great book

to take you away to a far away place.

fall....

it's always a bit of a transition

when fall arrives

but once i get in the groove of it

and get over the fact that i am going to see

the sun only a handful of hours a day

i embrace the chill, shades of oranges,

dark woods, warm sweaters,

and rain boots.

Doubt....

do you ever doubt what you do?

or

why you are doing something?

i don't know if it's for the lack of sun today,

or the fact i feel a little under the weather

or 

i just didn't get my mojo back after a long run

but today

i am doubting why i do or want to do 

Bee & Mason.

i mean deep down inside i know this is what i

truly want to do everyday, all day

but the reality is 

i have a full time job that expects me to

live and breath it everyday, all day.

and in order to go anywhere within the company

i better step up to the plate and drink the koolaid.

this troubles me.

shit this posting with probably cause troubles for me

but i really struggle with 

what my heart and soul wants to do

and what i need to do to keep paying the bills.

i'm being pretty damn transparent here but what the hell.

maybe the universe will hear me and send me 

a clear message on what to do

and help me clear my heart of doubt.

thanks for listening.

ciao,
