Saturday evening greetings!  We met Rob and Mary Linda for lunch and then the girls went to the knitting store while the guys went to be measured for tuxes for Lauren's July wedding.  Rob will be a groomsman and Richard will fill in for his late brother as father of the bride.  Richard and I went on to Tri-County Mall where he bought a new suit and I bought cosmetics to get Estée Lauder's gift with purchase.

I've been busy catching up on laundry and also doing some decluttering. Things pile up so quickly! I've done some tossing and some squeezing a bit more of this and a bit more of that into little remnants of storage spaces. I made some progress, but there's more to be done on another day. More cleaning to do yet today.

TOD:

I've always loved TOMORROW. Fortunately, I've not overheard it. I love all of ANNIE. Many other Charles Strouse songs, too.

I always enjoy DR FJL's parodies. Today's were no exception.

I need to do a bit more cleaning before these old bones refuse to do any more.

I miss DR FJL's "But Alive" parodies.


Thanks, David.  :)   I just happened to have done one totally gratuitous one a few weeks ago in the comment under this article.

And one even more gratuitous in the comments under

Very funny, Fred!

George, have you ever tried Ricola cough drops? I find they work really well. Also, drink lots of water. It really does help.

I haven't tried Ricola cough drops, but the theater where I'm ushering tonight sells Halls cough drops.  If I don't make it to the store to try the Ricola drops, I'll at least have the option of the Halls.

Well, I must leave now to usher for the Harmony Sweepstakes A Cappella Festival!  It's always a long fun night with a lot of great singing (usually ;)).

Until later!

I did have a second theory which I was glad wasn't the case.

I bet it was the same theory as mine. Because I was glad it wasn't the case too!

I love Ricola too. I use them whenever i get a drip in my throat. The one i like and use is green tea.

Richard will fill in for his late brother as father of the bride.

This has got to be very bittersweet.

From DR John G
Quote
Did you read the novel, "March," which won the Pulitzer a few years ago. It was about the father and what happened to him during the Civil War. Supposedly a wonderful book.

While I like the author of "March" I was not going to read it as I take great objection to authors stealing characters from other books and making them their own.


How could you sit through "Wicked?"

Why would anyone want to sit through "Wicked"? It just opened here for a three-week run and everybody's flocking to it. Ugh. (But I agree with the basis of your question.)

we loved Wicked - it works for teenager girls and those that once were teenage girls  :)

You know, I guess I passed my teenage girl years without even realizing it. :)
