Hello, Sunday.

Hello from London.

What to even say this week? I’ve been on vacation and even endless croissants, sore feet and thousands of years of history haven’t been able to insulate me from the horrors that we’ve all been seeing, both near and far from home.  

It’s never easy for me to put emotions to words – call it the Aquarius moon in me – but the best I can do right now is to tell you that if you’re scared, hurting, frustrated, sad, scared, empty or…whatever – I’m thinking of you and praying for you. 

Thanks so much for being here, and I hope you can find a little light in my corner of the internet, no matter how dark it may be in yours.

Hello, Sunday.

It’s been a bit of a whirlwind since I got back from Alaska, and it’s not about to stop as Mom and I leave for Paris tomorrow. Mom joked that these were “such big problems to have,” and I will admit that they likely fall into those “single income, no kids” problems.  Still, I’d say they are good problems to have.

I spent two days this weekend at the theatre, first seeing Michigan’s production of Guys and Dolls, which just happens to be one of my favorite shows. As such I’ve had the movie on repeat all weekend, enjoy and swooning over Frank Sinatra and Marlon Brando’s crooning.  If you haven’t seen it, it’s on prime.  Yesterday our Broadway in Detroit season kicked off with Funny Girl. Good times, all.

So much to do in what’s left of the weekend, but I wanted to leave you with a few tidbits from the week. Have a good one!
