kiss…kiss…kiss

We were shame proof in our love. Here happily snogging in the lobby of the Ace Hotel AND trying to take a selfie. A bemused young tourist offered to take pictures for us, so we handed him the camera and continued …

Cosmic Joke?

OK so this is getting a little ridiculous.  A small fly seems to have fallen in love with me.  It has been following me around for a little over a week.  It sits on my pillow at night, settles by my desk during the day and flutters about the kitchen while I cook.  It shows…

Butterfly Tickles

Laura has been very busy this week from what I can tell. In case you missed the post in comments, Laura popped up in a dream and tickled our good friend Toni and her partner Jill until Toni was speechless and wriggling on the floor feeling, ‘bathed in a million lights and laughing gas’.  Laura…

Out of the Wardrobe

  This past year I’ve felt like Lucy in The Lion, The Witch And The Wardrobe, falling out of a cosy wardrobe into a whole other world that I never knew was there. My experiences of Laura’s spiritual presence have opened the door to a vast parallel universe of life beyond life. At first I…

Wonderland

I spent  last week in Wonderland, my nickname for my friend Lisa’s amazing indoor-outdoor house that she and her husband Adam built in the Hollywood Hills. Lisa is the Auntie Mame of design, she is always inventing fun things; a desk like a wheelbarrow that you can trundle anywhere (even outside), a wearable computer  (in…

Soul Mate Test

When I am not sure how I feel about something (which is surprisingly often), I use Eugene Gendlin’s Focusing technique to cut through all the mental gymnastics and listen to what my body is saying. I used it the first time I met Laura to see if she was the right person for me and got…

Laura’s Poem

Let us lie down together holding hands, looking in to one another’s soul. There is a real beauty there, an understanding in the eyes that has passed between two women like never before. Dared I dream of you? Never would I even know how. But you magically appeared. If I wake up, will you still…

Lessons from Eva Zeisel

My dear friend Eva Zeisel, who died age 105, nearly didn’t make it past her 30s. She was arrested in Russia in 1936 on suspicion of plotting to kill Stalin and thrown into prison for several years (including 1 year in solitary confinement). While Eva’s fellow inmates went mad or committed suicide, she survived by…

the blanket thief

Laura is the most adventurous blanket thief I’ve ever dated.  The artful dodger of the bed clothes. One minute you are snug in bed and the next POOF! the blankets have gone.  She has three special maneuvers. 1:  The Hot Dog.  I am totally naked and Laura is wrapped all around like a sausage roll….

Moving in together

How do you combine 2 New York apartments into 1 when both are as tightly packed as ship’s cabins? We’ve no idea. Fortunately what we love most in the world is each other, rather than our stuff.  So here goes…

Our Mission

Hi!  We are Lucie and Laura.   Last month Laura heard those words that no-one should hear in their lifetime. ‘Go home, there is nothing more we can do for you.’  She has a very rare melanoma of the cervix (under 100 cases worldwide). Conventional medicine has no cure for this kind of cancer. But…
