Beach House

Over Wendy’s dead body

June 12, 2021 / CrazyKat1963 / 10 Comments

We’re at our beach house for the month and I’m having some unfortunate health issues. I’m sorta down and out for the count. Trying to rest up and will call the doc on Monday, so, here I am… blogging takes very little physical energy. It’s raspberry month in our Portland garden! Blue Eyes was in … Continue reading Over Wendy’s dead body

Not buying the bullshit

November 20, 2020November 20, 2020 / CrazyKat1963 / 13 Comments

That beach house. Last night we had a heated family discussion about our leaky master bedroom fireplace at the beach house. It has not been properly dealt with and when storms blow, rain gets in. It’s not like it floods the place, and the floors are concrete, but the surround is a beautiful custom steel … Continue reading Not buying the bullshit

Shelter in place, part 3

March 24, 2020 / CrazyKat1963 / 6 Comments

Our weather has turned colder with intermittent rain showers and lots of wind. Here’s the last few pictures of those sunny days. Two of my boys on an old ocean highway. A dog’s life Tide pools This is the point where the dog decided he may need to go home and get his daddy. He … Continue reading Shelter in place, part 3

Shelter in place, part 2

March 24, 2020March 24, 2020 / CrazyKat1963 / 13 Comments

Our second and third days of social distancing were equally as beautiful as the first. North End of the two mile stretch of beach our house is on. Lots of rocks and caves on this stretch of beach. In Oregon, the forest meets the beach a lot of the way. There’s a house on the … Continue reading Shelter in place, part 2

Shelter in place, part 1

March 23, 2020March 23, 2020 / CrazyKat1963 / 15 Comments

We feel pretty comfortable sheltering in place at our beach house during these troubled times. When the architect commenced his drawings about six years ago, he dubbed our home, Shelter House, and that’s what it is. With its massive foundation and heated concrete floors, gorgeous 12’ tall storefront windows, yards and yards of pristine cedar … Continue reading Shelter in place, part 1

Standing in judgment

November 19, 2019November 19, 2019 / CrazyKat1963 / 6 Comments

Those beautiful beach blues. I spent a wonderful five nights at the beach house a while back. A couple of the days were really lovely, weather-wise. Blue skies and 60 degrees in November is pure bliss on the Oregon Coast. Those two "balmy" days just happened to be ones where Blue Eyes was in the … Continue reading Standing in judgment

We lost

November 7, 2019November 7, 2019 / CrazyKat1963 / 58 Comments

Drive to the beach house this afternoon. I’m writing this here because I don’t have the energy to talk about it with anyone in real life, not even Blue Eyes. But it is really weighing my heart down, so here I go. I’m hoping getting this out into the blogosphere will help release what feels … Continue reading We lost

Over, but not done

October 21, 2019October 23, 2019 / CrazyKat1963 / 29 Comments

We made it through. Four gruesome days of arbitration with the builder of our beach house. It was simply, AWFUL. So many lies and accusations flying around the room, my head was spinning. During their testimony, the other side, both the former owner (contractor on our job) and new owner (foreman on our job) were … Continue reading Over, but not done

This too shall pass

October 4, 2019 / CrazyKat1963 / 20 Comments

In and amongst everything else going on in our lives, we are in arbitration with the builder of our beach house. Yes, THAT beach house. Yes, the house was theoretically "completed" nearly THREE years ago. Yes, it is a NIGHTMARE. Almost six years ago, Blue Eyes agreed that it was time we owned a beach … Continue reading This too shall pass

Do not say those words…

November 27, 2018November 27, 2018 / CrazyKat1963 / 57 Comments

Now that American Thanksgiving has passed I have a bit of a breather before I start preparing for Christmas and the New Year. The Thanksgiving holiday was wonderful. I arrived at the beach house with two full days to prep, and I really only needed one. I can be quite productive when I put my … Continue reading Do not say those words…
