Cosabella sells male thongs

Since no one is paying any attention to my blog tonight...  I like how confident this male model is. He looks Italian and maybe he enjoys a little pasta? Thongs for “the every day man!” What do you think?

Home wrecker or hero?

 My friend was telling me a story about her cousin who is engaged and her wedding is nearing . She recently reconnected with another man who she used to know from college. They talk regularly, reminiscing about college , and growing increasingly close. Needless to say, she is getting cold feet. My friend asked what she should do. I said, “run for the hills! Run away with him” Reconnecting with a handsome old flame from college would have put a stop to my impending nuptials too. Just saying. Sorry not sorry if you don’t like my advice! My friend thinks the man from college should back off, as her cousin is already in a long term relationship with a faithful man and engaged to boot. I disagree. He isn’t being a home wrecker. He is following his heart! lol  What do you think?

Living my best life!

 

Trimming my rose bushes

 

Stay away from my man!

Stay away from my man!

You want to take him to Burning Man

To wear strange outfits 

Get lit 🔥 

And play with him in the dirt

Stay away from my man

You want to drive up and down the coast

Walking along the shore

Holding hands and more

On a nude beach 

Talk about a life of beach surf bliss

Stay away from my man

 

You want to travel the world 

Fly the friendly skies 

First class all the way 

Sipping a cocktail in your window seat

Join the Mile High Club

Stay away from my man

You want a beautiful wedding 

And a house with a beachview

Adopt a dog to coach more love out of you 

And in a few years 

Have a child or two

Two killer careers

Two vacations a year 

She’s not from California 

But she’s a full fledged California girl now

Flowers in her hair 

Like the Santa Cruz hippie that she has become 

Stay away from my man 

Stop posting pictures of Trey on Instagram 

Adding more random followers to show off to

Life is sure picture perfect for you 

And you know it

Stay away from my man

***I woke up confused. Oh wait that’s not really my man. I married someone else. Damn!

Maeve: Those are fighting words! Message received! You are my enemy, so be forewarned! I will get you back! I can write too. I am smarter than you, so be forewarned! Just wait!!

Maeve: Yes I adore everything about Trey and my life with him. We have an enviable life! I love everything we built together and I love to share our life online with the world. You could never love Trey the way I do! You are too selfish and a hater to boot. Who does that? Who writes poems about another woman’s husband? A home wrecker! That’s who. Be forewarned!

Matt: She is fighting with herself again. Interesting problem to have, considering no one is talking to you right now. We are a figment of your imagination, so be forewarned, and we are certainly not hexing you. You are imagining this whole conversation because you are jealous of Maeve.

Val: I hate you, so be forewarned, I am seriously hexing you! I will not stop hexing you either, because you are trying to convince the world that we are witches. You said it yourself. We moved back to Venezuela and our lives our filled with beauty, nature, fashion, sport, and just general beach bliss! You see this in our Instagram posts! We are too busy to hex you. Believe that and be forewarned!

This is my friends sister!!

Great ideas embedded in this article! She is doing tremendous work for the mental health community, which is close to my heart, of course!

More mysterious food delivered

 Well my house got another mysterious food delivery today. It was addressed to Stephen from his work. So I am pretty sure it’s not poison. So, he just  started at this company recently and is already getting presents from them. FYI he spends the majority of his workday in bed. lol 

Time to prune the rose bushes!

 

Amazon just did me a huge favor

I had the impulse to spend $100 which I will never get back on an ad campaign for my book. Apparently Amazon ads rejected my ad content because it was offensive? My ad line said something like, “ Suffering in a sea of voices, Chiara falls into a psychotic abyss. How far will the voices push her until she gets the help that she needs?” Some people are so touchy. I wasn’t trying to offend the mental health community. I don’t even blame myself for my psychosis. I don’t know who to blame. I must admit that untreated psychosis can be dicey and dangerous, which is why I take my medication and consult my psychiatrist regularly. I lived through hell but no one wants to tell the truth, it seems, about the nature of violent command hallucinations. I guess I shouldn’t go there and just keep blaming my voices on haters who hex me? I really don’t know how to advertise my book. At least I saved $100, instead of wasting it on an ad campaign for people who won’t buy my book.

This rose has beautiful red lips!

 I just trudged through the mud to look at my roses. I got mud all over my shoes but it was worth it. I am humbled by the beauty of my backyard roses. This one steals the show, with its ruby red lips. It looks as if it is wearing lipstick. Pucker up!

Why are there more shark sightings in Santa Cruz?

Because… 

I don’t know.  Sorry I just wanted to share these cheesy shark jokes.

An old family photo from the late 1990’s

 This family photo was taken towards the end of college for me or right after I graduated college. The first thing I observe about this picture is how depressed me and my siblings look. Depression runs in our family. My mom has told me that I wasn’t super thin in college but yes I definitely was. I am the daughter on the far right having the wardrobe malfunction. lol This time in me and my sisters lives was super sad or at least we were made to feel bad about ourselves. We were raised Catholic and no one was supposed to have sex before we got married. So all of our Catholic cousins were rushing to the altar marrying their first ever boyfriend and we were not seeing anyone seriously. They beat us to the altar! Damn! My mother told me that she was pessimistic that I would ever find my future husband after college. She basically sent me to college to find my future husband and I came home, upon graduation, empty handed. She made my sisters and I feel old and unwanted. We were failures for not finding our husbands in college. Sad! Don’t rush your children into getting married and having your grand babies! Please don’t do that! Some people never find their soulmate. Some people don’t ever get married. Some people shouldn’t get married or have children. This should have been the time of my life. I was fresh out of college. I had the world at my feet. So why did I feel so badly? My mother has since passed so l can’t go back and attempt to make her feel bad for the memories I am left with. Lucky her!

Manic Monday

Matt: For someone who avoided venturing into a relationship with Trey Sanders in your younger years, you certainly made a “different” choice. An “interesting” choice in life partners, that is. So you married Stephen and had three children with him. You saw some red flags but you stuck with him and created a huge family for yourself. It’s interesting that after all of that work you put in together, you are left here with growing children and a feeling that you are alone in all of this. It’s also interesting to note that every other conversation with Stephen  turns into an insulting diatribe on his part. Boy he really doesn’t like it when you glance away uncomfortably while he is reeling/“talking.” He is becoming increasingly long winded and your attention span is fading. How is that dynamic working out for you?

“Stephen: Do you know why women in their 40’s start getting less roles in films? It is because men don’t want to look at women aging so movie studios hire new young women to star in their upcoming movies. Men do not want to watch movies starring older women. Men don’t want to look at aging women. Women don’t want to look at aging women either. It’s true! Name a working actress in their 50’s or older.

Me: Jane Fonda. 

Stephen: Jane Fonda is rich. She creates roles for herself and produces the vehicle for herself too.

Me: What about Jamie Lee Curtis?

Stephen: Well if you consider Halloween a quality movie…”

Matt: Stephen just insults you and your gender for the hell of it. Stephen must still desire you because he is trying to break your confidence down so you will never have the nerve to leave. He doesn’t believe that you have a secret admirer either. That’s Impossible! Again, you made the right choice in a life mate. Really! Don’t look back at your chance with Trey, as if was still a valid opportunity for you. You are aging and losing your looks,  as we speak. If Stephen and Trey were smart they would start looking for younger women. Maybe it’s time for another cat because that is where you are headed. Alone with your cats. Be forewarned!

My secret admirer sent me these cupcakes

Is this a delivery from my secret admirer or an attempt to poison me? When I was not home today, my son opened the door and received a package from a delivery person. There was no note attached to reveal who the sender was. Inside the box were 6 cupcakes.  I ate one red velvet cupcake just out of curiosity. I believe Dr. and Mrs. Trey Sanders had a red velvet wedding cake. Sigh! Our wedding cake would not have been that flavor. I don’t like blood red looking cake but that’s just me. Vanilla or lemon flavor would have been just fine. Kisses 👄 and more to my secret admirer. The cupcake was truly delicious!

Maeve: I have been processing my response to what you said about our wedding cake and here’s the thing. You have balls to cyberstalk us to the point of figuring out what flavor cake we ate on our wedding night. You don’t know any of us so you are trying to figure out our private wedding details through Facebook photos that different people posted. You have balls and a lot of nerve for thinking and speaking ill of our beautiful betrothal. I thought Trey was my soulmate and that this was the beginning of an everlasting marriage. Til death do us part and everything?  Our relationship, up to that point, was a storybook fairytale, as you well know. Everyone was jealous of me and my handsome med school beau. He was a total gentleman and sweetheart, who fit in with my many friends. I had no idea what he was leaving out. I did not realize that he was holding back important details and truths until years into our marriage. I am heartbroken and you sit here making jokes and ripping up our wedding pictures. We hate you so we will continue to hex you! Be forewarned!

Well this is not a good omen

 https://www.batcon.org/article/bats-in-belfries-and-other-places/

So this happened today. A bat flew into our backyard and is just hanging upside down asleep on the side of our house, like one of the Lost Boys.

Matt: Like your brother said, it’s just a mouse with wings. Go outside and touch it! So, you really do have bats in your belfry, but we already knew that! Be forewarned!

Nice day in San Clemente

Matt: Don’t kid yourself Danielle! Your  BMI is higher than 99% of the population in San Clemente.  You were a joke to the residents of San Clemente. You were not imagining that. It did say No Dogs Allowed on the pier sign and you walked on it anyway. That’s trespassing! It’s a wonder the pier held your weight! Next stop. The rickety Santa Cruz pier. Let’s make some magic there. You might be heavy enough to make the pier collapse. One can only hope and pray. Be forewarned!

I just spent a beautiful day in San Clemente. I did feel insecure about my weight and comparing myself to others and wondering what other people were thinking. But overall it was a great day spent with my friends. I prefer down to earth Carlsbad to San Clemente though. I have more love for my home since 1999 and I do think it has nicer people than the super wealthy Orange County.

Listening to Maeve after a long day

 Maeve: Oh god! What are you doing wearing a Big Sur statement teeshirt during your walk? I see you and I am watching you. I just drove past you as a matter of fact and I was hexing you the entire time! Are you trying to send a message to my husband? You have never been to Big Sur. You just wish you have. You led your life in a different direction than Trey Sanders, so why don’t you read his Facebook profile and weep. I hope you cry your eyes out…and then when you cannot cry another tear, snap out of it and go back to your pathetic life! It’s your fault that you didn’t end up with Trey Sanders! You broke his heart when you married Stephen and blah blah blah he eventually found someone better, namely, me Maeve Sanders. So you can just kick yourself until the day you die but stay away from my man, my husband, my passionately in love husband Trey! Or else I will bring more darkness and insanity into your life. My magic is nothing like you hear on the radio. It’s not Olivia Newton John’s Magic. I am not one to be messed with! What if I did to you what you are attempting to do to me? What if I shattered all the goodness in your world? I am contemplating retaliation and giving you your just dessert!  Be forewarned!

Venting about high schools

 I have two daughters in two different local high schools and there seems to be some differences between the two high schools. Like everyone always says in general LCC is the athletic school and SDA is more artsy. My oldest goes to LCC where the program that best fits her needs is located. We like LCC and their attempts at inclusion for my special needs child. The parents are generally nice there.

My second daughter was assigned to go to SDA as the program that suits her needs is there. General Ed parents frickin love SDA. They fight to get their general Ed children in this school. The children there are very artistic and expressive in their quirkiness. A lot of them have different color dyed hair and cool style. They are definitely experimenting and different in general. I am sure that my daughter with Autism and mild mental health issues will feel comfortable with the other kids here. Actually it is the general Ed volunteering parents who scare me. They are proud, condescending and exclusive. They keep giving me dirty looks and looking at my daughter like she is crazy and unwanted at SDA. My daughter is in the Seaside Academy on SDA campus. Are the meddling nothing better to do general Ed parents trying to rid our program from their beloved campus?  Where are we supposed to get an education if everyone is scared of our children? I wonder. I want to protect my daughter from snooty self righteous general Ed parents. If you think my daughter is any worse off than the rest of the purple-haired questioning teenagers at SDA, you are completely wrong! I have to keep my mouth shut though because every other parent there thinks SDA is this perfect school and to fit in, you have to act like you think so too. Ok End of rant.

Gossiping

 Gossiping with my childrens tutor is like:

Tutor: Do you know so and so? They live in a $5 million dollar house. They inherited all this money. They don’t have to work and neither do their children. So, they have a really hard time motivating their children to do their homework.

Me: Rich people problems! Wow!

Happy with my new kitten

 

To my sexy, ever-loving Leo!

 Thinking of you today!

Val: Wait one second. He isn’t yours though. He belongs to one Maeve Sanders, his more beautiful wife, so be forewarned. Maeve is having her cake and eating it too right now, with one Trey Sanders, so be forewarned, you will not be celebrating his 48th or any future birthday with him. Be forewarned!

Maeve: Right. Happy birthday! You will never know how happy his birthday is from…so far away. We are celebrating Trey, in Santa Cruz, today and you are not invited, so be forewarned. Stay away from Trey, or a voodoo hex will come your way! On his birthday, and every day, stay away. Keep your home wrecking ways and your jealousy away from our perfect bliss. You can  eat your heart out on this Friday,August 5th! The sun is in Leo, but you are in our shadows! Be forewarned!

Matt: You and your stupid astrology! Get real! You know nothing about Trey. You are not a match for Trey, astrologically, or otherwise. He already has a perfect match in Maeve, his brilliant and beautiful counterpart. You are barking up the wrong tree! You are a washed up loser and out-of-shape, to boot. Maeve is wealthy, fit, and fashionable! You are no match for her. You should quit embarrassing yourself and move on, or else! Be forewarned!

Matt: So what is there to do next?  Trey is not celebrating his birthday with you and you are all alone in your bedroom tonight?

I swear, these lovebirds were just kissing!

 Their beaks were just touching. Lovely! I just missed the shot but, as you can see, they were having a moment.
