A few days ago we were taking an oceanside walk that unraveled at the end to become a crawl from one shady resting spot to another until we finally made it safely off the hot beach to our waiting taxi. Scott has requested I make up a calendar chart and every other day or so […]
My lovey enjoying a few “patch free” hours in the pool. The pain medicine he is on for stomach cancer is fentynol patches which are 72 hour time release. We remove them on the third day and that gives Scott a window of time to shower or immerse himself fully in pool or ocean. The […]
Hey! I’ll bet you’re all wondering how our visit to a casino in Goa on 12-12-12 went down, aren’t you? A good time was had by all…but first, pants had to be purchased. We arrived at the casino only to be turned away because they had a dress code. JB, Sanjiv, and Scott were in […]
A big part of the reason we are here in Goa is because Scott’s longtime friend and business associate Sanjiv Sangwan has a house here. It is directly behind and up the hill from Sur La Mer. A few years ago he was thinking about converting the property to a B & B. we were […]
LUCKY DAY(0, 00, 12, 21, 25, 36) Katy Allgeyer While we all are beginning to learn that every day is a good day here in Goa, today is a particularly good day. Why? It is 12-12-12. Extremely rare lineup of numbers. Not just any numbers: Scott’s lucky numbers 12 and 36 (add up the three […]
Scott saved up his energy all day Monday December 10th so he could take me to Thalassa aka Mariketty’s Place, the Greek restaurant with the most amazing view, in Vagator last night. High up on a cliff overlooking a pocket beach at the base of a mountain…..palms swaying in the seabreeze that was keeping us […]
When we were applying for visas for India we found out the only way to expedite them overnight was to go to the Indian embassy in DC. That story remains to be told but at the end of it was a wonderful opportunity to have dinner with Scott ‘s friends and furniture colleagues Teddy Kanter […]
The tagline on the movie posters for Life of Pi is ” the journey of a lifetime”. Here we all are following a similar transformative survival journey: Scott’s. I saw this Ang Lee masterpiece with Scott today. In order to do so, Scott had to buy tickets in advance a few days ago, arrange a […]
Charles Simmons, aka Seemore, had befriended me and my Aussie friend Liz Jamison through his meanderings at the High Point Furniture Market,what must be now 5-6 years ago. He would visit my showroom (which at that time was in Suites @ Market Square) and we’d bump into each other at assorted Market events. On one […]
Yesterday was hot in Morjim. But what day hasn’t been? High 90’s. The tropical sun and heat and humidity saps strength, the chill of our air conditioned villa room is a welcome respite. We save our energy for a walk on the beach at sundown with Luca and JB. We did some last minute shopping […]
