I have mentioned in many earlier blogs, the blessings that 

WW enjoys, having the same great friends for decades.

It has been such a joy to watch their friendship over the years.

Five out of the group were asked to try out for a tv show Monday.

I don't know all the details,

but I think it was a type

of Family Feud game show,

based on trivia?

These ladies don't need

a reason to show up

and have fun together. 

I don't know the results,

but it looks like

there was some fun

and celebrating?

Amy, Heidi M & Heidi K

They decided that since they were in LA, they would try to go to 

the Jimmie Kimmel tv taping, with Keith Urban.
Knowing Heidi,  she can and will make it happen.

So while going to bed, I turned on the tv and saw ...

I woke up today with a strong desire for ...

I didn't have anything like that in my kitchen.

But, I remembered an IHOP commercial ...

so I dressed and drove 5 miles to my nearest IHOP, 

instead of my usual Tuesday morning Farmers Market.

When I eat out alone, I usually take a book to read.

I left it in the car, so I while I waited for my strawberries ...

... easily entertained, and such a cheap date!

Some days you need to break some rules, right?

And, in the "too good not to share" department:

Friends Tom & Betty Cotton were recently in New York

hearing their Grandson play at Carnegie Hall 

where Paul performed and was awarded the Judges’ 

First Place Distinction Award Winner of the American Protégé  

International Woodwinds and Brass Competition.

Having raised Paul, his Grandparents are very proud 

as he continues to pursue his musical journey.  Currently, 

he is attending his Masters Degree in Music Performance 

at Jacobs School of Music, Indiana University 

and will be starting his second year in August, 2018.  

Before then, he will be spending a couple of weeks 

in Gap, France, attending a two week saxophone program.

Wonderful! 

A smile for Wednesday ...

Day 2105: And so I just drool from a far!

While on face-time 4 hours & 2 minutes tonight, 

I added collage to this drawing with junk mail.

Crazy, huh?
