Share the Joy Thursday: A Walk in Downtown Seattle

It's time to think JOY.

What moved you this week?

For me, it was

a dynamite pair of heels from a Seattle designer

named Luly Yang 

who does custom evening wear and bridal

and other things too

and always has drop-dead gorgeous shop windows

that never fail to grab my attention

but this time I went in to look around

(and immediately wished I was a size 2 and would fit

into a couple of cocktail dresses that were samples

from her collection and on sale for half price)

SO budget still intact, I continued on to my

continuing legal education

that was interesting and thought-provoking,

and best of all FREE

because I'm a member 

of the World Peace Through Law Section of the bar assn.

After the CLE was over,

I saw this interesting sculpture

on the way to a joyful lunch 

with my elder son

Then, after hearing the work and family news,

 I drove back to Tacoma

for my final meeting as a Trustee

of the Tacoma Art Museum

but found I had a few minutes to browse

in a local furniture emporium

without being late for the meeting.

There I found a chest of drawers

in MY COLOR

and it had a great crackle finish

and unique drawer pulls. 

(Budget still intact, even though it was on sale).

Can I really justify 

a piece of furniture in MY COLOR?

Luckily, it was a joy just to see it 

and admire it!

What says JOY to you this week?
