and it all begins anew....

spent the long new years weekend moving more of my stuff out of the big storage unit, in hopes that I can knock that grande payment out of my monthly budget.  luckily one of my coworkers, who is a generous soul, helped me move the most huge boxes up the stairs.  before the end of the month it was all disbursed to my apartment, to good will organizations and to a much smaller/cheaper unit to be more easily financially managed going forward. whew!

in between moving boxes, I was able to sing one weekend and read another weekend at Temple. always a blessing!

sadly, our Queen of Hearts (who captured our hearts) from last summer's Alice passed away from the complications of her many infirmities. many of the cast attended her funeral/memorial which was such a testament to how strong her spirit was and how far her reach past the boundaries of her wheelchair.  so inspirational!!

at work, I had the opportunity to meet up with a globetrotter who is in town to play over the weekend!

at the movies, I went to see the new movie about the Space Coast and the women who made it possible, Hidden Figures.  what an amazing story! I know I cry at movies, but this one is such a feel-good we-are-amazing well done presentation!!
