Monday bloody Monday, stuck in the groove, doing what we do on a Monday.
It always start with Kelli deciding what to wear, not as simple as it sounds. It’s a full production number, Danny La Rue had less costume changes. The first is usually hanging in the bathroom, a set of matching items carefully chosen, and ready to wear.
Then there is the dress rehearsal, not quite right. Change one item, dress rehearsal number two, no still not right, change the second item, and so it goes on. All this time the rejects are piling up on the floor. We are getting close, she asks my opinion, totally ignores that, goes back and changes her look completely. Now I feel we are getting close to being able to go.
She has already laid out an outfit for me, I’m dressed in thirty seconds, are we ready to leave?
There is the final look in the mirror, a reluctant shrug of the shoulders, and we’re away.
Ready for the fashion show at Natures Market, sorry, we have to return stuff at Goodwill.
Of course there is a quick check around the clothes rack whilst I look at any furniture, then my eyes scan the CD shelf for any sign of something I had heard of, no! The highlight of the rack was Little Jimmy and is gospel guitar, I bet that was a blast.
The highlight of the day was the arrival of Kelli’s new pillow. She had seen a shaped pillow on Amazon that she feels will solve all her sleep problems. Normally she has to kneed the life out of the one she had, and beat it into shape. It feels like I’m next to Rocky as he pounds the punchbag.
Now this will either be a miracle or it will be taken to UPS tomorrow.
I finished the repair to the rocking chair, and let the owner know, now awaiting collection.
Another Lifetime to go
