Ups and downs

January 30th, 2010

Well, a different coffee shop, but a good place to blog nevertheless.
The beverage today is Carmel Mac in a steamer. One of us tried it Thursday at the sister coffee place and pronounced it -”desert” so I had to try it. Very good!
Our local theatre is doing a Blizzard Auction to raise money . I stopped in and though it is calm now, I guess earlier it was very busy.
My shift will be coming soon, so I am relaxing after errands (most which included paying something)
I stopped at our fairly new yarn shop where I bought some supplies to introduce cross-stitching to hopefully help with cabin fever.
I agree with a fellow blogger – children have been a little “ancy” this week.
This week has been sad because two great ladies have left us that were a part of the theatre.
Gerry and I were in a play years ago about sisters in the 30’s and 40’s.
We had to age ten years during intermission! The play was based around bridge playing and she was the only one from Catholic school(as in the play) and bridge player. We marked and stacked our decks of cards so that we could follow script.
She also played the lead in our Golden Pond the first time we did it.
Just two of many parts she did.

Our second loss was Barb who many may not realize the impact she and her family had on the theatre. She was a kind and loving person who helped with props, costumes, and fund raising. She was also a great friend to me personally by providing me shelter in her home when I most needed that along with her friendship.
Bless you both ,ladies :I am a better person for having known both of you.
Have a great week everyone and cherish those you love while they are with us.
Stay warm.

    I heard about the passing of both ladies and didn’t realize that they were involved with the theater. Thanks for writing about it; I’m glad I know. I hope the theater made a lot of money on the auction and that it is spent wisely.
