Unique to me
Here’s a P-K success story – C, a darling cutie pie who owns Filly, was sitting in her store when L walked in. He moved here from the Midwest P-K – gotta love anyone who is moving in PK – anyway first comes love, let’s skip marriage, now C&L are getting a baby carriage – I ran into her last night outside Cafe Brazil 4 months pregnant! They are adorable.
Last night, I picked up S at the airport and we came home and did a James Brown turn around dress routine and went off to Muriels to hook up with G (her birthday) and her friends from NY (originally from here) H and L. Then we headed over to the Marigny for music and dancing. Left at Marigny Brasserie, S and I hung out for a while and then went over to Marky’s for a nightcap.
This morning walking around the bayou I saw D with his dog Tipper and I went over the footbridge to meet him. He was a contractor in Russia, then a realtor here for a decade and back to being a contractor P-K. I told him that my house was going to be around $200 + a square foot and he said on the bayou that was not unusual. He said he could sell the LaLa for me if I wanted to get out from under it. I told him I’d keep that in mind but right now I was hoping to live in it. So with D’s assessment and what L, man of no mystery, told me Thursday night which was “don’t scrimp on anything you are doing there, you have a unique home and people will pay for the work you are doing to it.” He should know, he’s had a house on St Charles and Ursulline and now has an adorable house on St. Philip – I feel like I can see the vision.
S and I are off on the misery tour today after a little whirl around the LaLa.
