Most of today has been spent in pjs and slippers, mopping, scrubbing, vacuuming up pet hair, cleaning the catbox, and paying bills. Lunch was oh so fancy - peanut butter and jelly with a bag of cheetos, and the cheetos alone made it a fabulous lunch but that's not the point of this post so I'll keep moving.

Tomorrow plans are to do a bit more cleaning, rake leaves and mow the lawn, go to church, and finish the evening with turkey reubens and something yet to be determined to round it out enough to call it dinner. We live a fancy life, yes we do.

But just for one night - tonight - here's where we're going to be!

So for one night, I'm going to clean up, dress up, and enjoy every single minute of being in this fabulous place, with a handsome man to escort me. That's my seat, Center section, Row L, seat 101 - a wonderful place to spend an entire evening listening to beautiful music. I imagine this is how Cinderella must have felt, after those mice made her a pretty dress, zapped that pumpkin and sent her on her way. It's nice being married to Prince Charming. No glass slippers, but some very pretty black ones fit me just fine.
