A Whiter Shade of Pale

The White Bedroom at the Legends

I am settling into my digs here and I am starting to enjoy the empty space and the peace of not having to try to figure out how to live in my situation at home. Not having to deal with the clutter and stuff ...well ....I can breathe here

I have yet to reconcile the colorlessness of this place. I have never lived in a more unstimulated environment. I love a white wall, but a wall is only a background for art or ornaments, not as an end in itself. I know that this was done to facilitate the "Corporate" set up but its not me

When Woody was here we talked about putting up curtains and doing this or that. But the truth is that I really cant afford to redecorate, and my thought is now to learn to enjoy the peaceful blankness of the canvas of this home, and enjoy the view of the golf course and the comfort and peace of the place. I could be sharing a house with another student as some have done that have gone to the school.The Lord has provided for my every need.

What I think is funny is the contents of the cartons that I brought with me. Books ect. Think about what you would bring with you...Some of the more interesting things that I brought with me

8 cartons of nutrisystems (well its food I have and why not eat it)
3 Bibles as well as a copy of the Catechism of the Catholic Church
6 boxes of votive candles Cant burn them with the kitties around will use them here, I brought candle holders as well

My book list and CDs not to mention my Ipod all loaded up...

What would you bring to your deserted island?




I found this teapot at a local market. I had nothing to boil water in and this added a bit of color to the kitchen
