I was lucky enough to be asked to be on the Season Play Selection Committee at First City Players. I was sent a list of potential plays for the 23/24 season to read and help narrow down to individual plays. When I saw "We Will Rock You," my first thought was, "Cool!! Queen!"

Costume Musings: Clue
CLUE: First. I watched the movie. It was painful.. I am a little embarrassed about that, most folks LOVE this movie. But. I am not a slapstick comedy person and this was slapstick at it's finest.

We would walk down the hall and he would talk about each one, breathing life into those old photos. Relatives … Continue reading What I Have Learned. What I Have Yet to Learn.
Ooze
Word of the day: OOZE With a loud "POP" the can burst at the seam and the dough began to slowly ooze through the crack. Picking up the plate, she gave him a level stare then threw it towards him. She missed. It hit the wall where it clung for a minute, then pasta and … Continue reading Ooze

Adventures of A Busy Mom! I love her DIY/crafty, spiritual, storytelling blog! Thanks so much for the nomination, my first! I was a bit of a "lurker" here on WordPress, even though I have been posting since October, I never went to "reader" or knew about prompts, challenges, community pool, etc. After a commitment to … Continue reading Unique Blogger Award
