Closing show

To come full circle...is cause to dance and laugh and be thankful and clap my hands with grateful glee to mighty God. I am allowed now to use the "remission" word, and what a difference a year makes. A year ago - I could not finish out my theatre season, as I was starting chemo. A year ago, I had just been diagnosed and I went, albeit a bit shaky, to prom. Now, I just closed out our season with the BEST play I've seen them do - "Hay Fever" by Noel Coward - BRILLIANT! The fun part, of course, is that almost everyone I mentioned this to in London, was familiar with this play, and were impressed (even if slightly) that my Vagabonds were doing it. They worked hard and impressed me mightily.

As far as prom - let's face it, as grown-up girls - we don't get to dress up that much - so for me, getting a once a year, "glam it up" opportunity, is a perk! Jeremy was my escort - we had PLANNED to go on the motorcycle - the weather did not want to comply - no matter - we had a MARVELOUS time.

Yes, I've been horribly lazy about blogging - until last week, I'd been tied up with the show. Now I have a sick python (totally my fault - sigh), but he's MUCH better - poor darling - he's got to go in to the vet every three days for antibiotic shots. I'd give them myself, but I can't manage him and the shots - and the only person I know who COULD manage him while I did the shot, is defending our country most fabulously right now.
