Living in an rv has 4ever changed me. Everything we have HAS a purpose. We don’t just buy crap just to be buying it or to keep up with Kar-Krash-ions…
I guarantee you we will be using the hell out of our thrift store glasses. Mix + match
Think 4 yourself.
Let and let live.
Unless you are a Kar-krashy-ion…
The history of our MetroPAD
I am always very interested in finding out the history of the homes where I live. I like to know what has happened in the particular place I will be resting, connecting and living. I want to know what kind of energy to expect, what kind of energy to clear or possibly keep & work with…
This is our first time to ever live in a high-rise apartment. Our dream of traveling in our rv didn’t happen in the time line we were expecting. Perhaps if we held out a little longer it would have. I’m sure of it. But honestly, we were over it. Right after we videotaped the reasons why we were choosing to live a simple life in an rv, some sort of veil was lifted. It’s almost like we needed to have a document, and in our case a video to express how we look at life and material things. Then after that little video was ready to rock, POOF…We changed directions. I LOVE & celebrate that we have the freedom to do that.
Because our life is ALL about experiencing new things, this is a totally new one for us. Never thought we would be the Jeffersons. Never thought I would have to take an elevator wherever I go. Not even a year ago, I would take the flight of stairs over taking an elevator. I was terrified of those confined creepy things. But I had a dream about 6 months ago that must have rewired that part of my brain…Maybe I’ll post about it soon…anyhoo…
HISTORY & WHERE WE ARE TODAY
The Metropole. This building was built in 1966. It was an Exxon building. It was the computer techy part of Exxon. How do you like THAT kind of energy?! In 2010 the buyers converted the building to create luxury apartments. And boy did they do a mighty fine job at that! It looks like they have kept true to the 1966 swanky look of that day. The colors, the decor all have that late 60’s appeal, but with what would be considered modern for that time. When we first walked into this building, I immediately connected with the retro charm.
This is the tv room. This is a common area for all residents. Above the fireplace hangs a flat screen tv. We watched Big Bang Theory last night here since we don’t have cable yet. And now I am starting to wonder if we should even get it…
This is a lounge, another common area. It over looks the pool & hot tub. On the other side of the fireplace is a kitchen.
This is the business center. Macs and snazzy chairs.
Levi loves this room…
& Skipper is happy that he gets to walk to work from here and it only takes him 5 minutes. We literally live across the street from his work @ Greenway Plaza.

Tiny Titanic Tidbits
I feel privy-ledged that I had the opportunity to co-mingled with the fanciful artifacts from the RMS Titanic. Before we entered the exhibit, we were issued a boarding pass. Mine: Miss Ellen Hocking. Age:21 From Cornwall England. 2nd Class. Ellen was traveling to New York State where she was to marry George Hambly of Schenectady.
7 things I have in common with Miss Ellen Hocking
1. She was a Scorpio. Me too, my Sun sign anyway
2. She was a girl with dark features. Me too.
3. She got married when she was 21. Me too.
4. She was traveling to another country with her mom. Did that lots.
5. She had a premonition. During the voyage Ellen thought she heard a bird/cock crowing as she was falling asleep, a sign of impending disaster in Cornish Folklore. I am a person of signs, folklore.
6. She was traveling 2nd class.
7. She was one of the lucky ones who survived.
I bought a trinket. A turquoise bracelet with a piece of coal charm that was actually on the Titanic.
Additional muse-sings
~ I freaking LOVE the White Star line logo. Simple. Nice.
~ I think the tiles used in the bathrooms in 3rd class were much prettier than the ones used in first class.
~ The vials of perfume by the creator Adolphe Saalfeld is kwite peachy.
German-born chemist Adolphe Saalfeld. He was traveling on the Titanic to New York in hopes of developing a new line of scents. He survived the sinking, but his samples were lost. Found 2-1/2 miles beneath the ocean’s surface, many samples amazingly still contained their oils.
Legacy is the Adolphe/Titanic inspired perfume. I tested it and was pleased that it wasn’t just a nice novelty gift shop perfume. It really smells nice. “Legacy 1912 eau de parfum surrounds you with the fragrance of delicate lemon and neroli, alongside blushing rose and warm, sheer amber. A testament to the enduring nature of history.”
My next entry will be about my Titanic SHE-rows. Stay tuned, Scally-maidens & Scally-gentz!
