A stunning weekend! Warm, sunny, and time in the gardening getting it ready for sleep and just a few sits. I was happy with what gone done, even if the leaves were already falling like crazy. Today in true autumn fashion, it is a bit cloudy and some strong gales. Drats, its Monday!!!! Sneaks up again!!! Up late watching the 1959 House on Haunted Hill. Never in the cinema has there ever been a better or more dramatic scream than that of Carol Ohmart! And she sums up perfectly my knowing it is Monday again.
October is the treasure of the year.
And all the months pay bounty to her store;
The fields and orchards still their tribute bear;
And fill her brimming coffers more and more
But she, with youthful lavishness
Spends all her wealth in gaudy dresses,
And decks herself in garments bold,
Of scarlet, purple, yellow red and gold,
She heedeth not how swift the witching hours approach,
But smile and sings her happy life long.
The ghostly carousel!
ReplyDeleteLovely stuff to promote the season's mood!
ReplyDeleteWe're still hovering in the low 90s --- about 10 degrees above normal.
90'''''''''s?!?!?!?!?!?!?! I'll be right there in the flesh!
DeleteAre pics 1 & 7 of the same house? Whether they are or no a painter/decorator is desperately needed.
ReplyDeleteThat's probably going to be my house when I get old and people think I'm like Little Edie!. I like the look of it but I sure couldn't live with that daily.
DeleteI miss my black cat. I still might want one when we get closer to the other holidays.
ReplyDeleteI'm not into the creepy. I found through the years that black cats always seemed to be more friendly than the others.
ReplyDeleteA bubble butt is always welcome in my home!
I'm more a dog person myself like you Duchess, but if I have cats they're always going to be black. I just adore black cats.
DeleteThe funny thing is that strays always liked me. The one cat that someone left at my door killed my five-foot fake fichus after I took him/her in. It was too much of a psycho queen for me to handle so I gave her to my youngest sister, the neighborhood animal whisperer. Turns out she/him (the cat, not my sister) had a brain tumor of some sort and had to be put out of everyone's misery. I still like black cats though. I won't let the crazy of one spoil my love of the whole breed, or whatever they're called. Of course I like anything with fur. I also like snakes, frogs and lizards, none of which are allowed in a house containing Balder Half. Have a good night, Mads. Oooh, you called me Duchess, should I call you Mistress now?
DeleteI only had the one cat, a black cat I named called Starrbooty! She was such a lovable and well-behaved cat, if not a diva. She and I would have late morning lounges in the bed together to the appalment of my ex. We would sleep in on weekend till like 1pm! I rescued her too. She had jade green eyes, so pretty. I don't know you were here yet at the Casa when I had her, but we were both torn up when she passed on. But your story...that seemed to be the best for all involved by the sound of it.
DeleteNow sleep tight Deedles....don't let the goblins bite!
I want the first house. The screamer gets to me. I guess my anxiety level is too high to begin with.
ReplyDeleteI can see you two boys in that house! Course, I'd need a third-floor boudoir if I came to visit?!?!
DeleteYes, the first house, it's now on my list.
ReplyDeleteI just adore the architecture and design of that place, and I even like the old world weathered look to it.
DeleteI like that movie too. And the house and the staircase and the bubble butt.
ReplyDeleteYES....That bubble butt got to me too!
DeleteI love that first house, and the photo of the stairs; and I would lovelovelove to take ginger cakes to the stairs and watch him walk up the stairs over and over again.
ReplyDeleteI like the way you think dear!!!! What a sight that'd be!
DeleteI see your in Spooky spirit.
ReplyDeleteLove that house!
ReplyDeleteLove that blond!
Love that movie!
Step into my parlos. We're birds of a feather.
XOXO
There's something so striking and fresh about orange houses. Even an orange door on a white house catches the eye. And that blonde guy has some nice pumpkins too, I must say!
ReplyDeleteA white house with an orange door sounds amazing!!! I'm not a huge orange lover, but I do like it in small doses. But that house is amazing, isn't it?
DeleteI assume you're getting your snow shovels out, what with Halloween coming and all....
Tundra Bunny here...
ReplyDeleteOops, I forgot my icon doesn't show up in your comments section... the orange house, door and pumpkins comments was mine!
Love the pumpkins! He jack o lanterns aren't bad either.
ReplyDeleteThis is my favorite mood board of the month so far. ADORE the orange house...and I love Louise Brooks! She was a stunner. Even in a cobweb dress. You putting in my the mood for Halloween. I'm loving the vibes.
ReplyDeleteFun mood board! I love the original House on Haunted Hill. And your right, the best blood curdling scream had to come from Carol Ohmart. And she was quite the beauty.
ReplyDeleteThat dog does not make a very happy ghost.
ReplyDeleteFab collection of photos and I love the poem but am unable to share the appreciation of Autumn. to me it's cold, damp and messy. Thanks for cheering up on a gloomy day.
ReplyDeleteAs on owner of a black cat, I loved the Black Cat Knowledge meme. Lovely pictures!
ReplyDeleteThat guts ass in a work of art! I'd be afraid to fuck him. His ass looks so tight it might snap my cock in two.
ReplyDeleteCatching up, my dear. Since autumn has descended I have been in a funk. Love your mood boards. Adore that one with the crumbling staircase. And that Vincent Price movie is one of my all-time faves. The blonde, Carol Ohmart, was actually a fairly good actress - Paramount Pictures bungled her debut and she had to make the best of a botched launch. She became a poet - new age stuff. But she had the look.
ReplyDeleteI'm sending you some cyber hugs!!!!! Would it also help if I came and sucked your cock?
DeleteI also love hearing your take and info on things when it comes to music and movies.
I cant actually feel how tight his bubble butt.
