These dudes look ready for Broadway!
(Quick aside: I think my cat just ate a mouse. He's been standing guard all morning, watching SOMETHING behind my Meditation Room door. And now he's on my lap, starting to heave. This will not do. Go throw-up on the throw rug. And avoid my RED SHOES!)
(Quicker aside: You think I meditate just because I have a Meditation Room? Surely, Shirley...you jest! I am a Type A if ever there was one.)
Not my Meditation Room.
Meanwhile, here we are entering The Roaring Twenties 2.0! Time for bathtub gin and bobbed hair (check and check)...and a party! I have a flapper skirt. You have a flapper skirt (well, you should and if you don't, check out TJMaxx or PENNIES???). They'll be all the rage come New Year's Eve, which we'll celebrate on Sunday (yes, come early, stay late!) with Astaire, Bacall, Coward, Garland, and a zillion other merry makers. We'll Put On The Ritz, never go Dry, Fasten Our Seat Belts, and be The Life Of The Party til The Party's Over. Confetti will be tossed. Noise-makers noised. And bubbles imbibed.
Yup, that's a flash-forward to
this coming Sunday's 2 On The Aisle.
