More culture? Maybe....

There is a possibility my girlfriend Nancy is coming to sleep in the warm and cozy spare bed this weekend. She is one of my oldest and dearest friends. The kind of friend you can call any time of the night or day and she is there. I could never have raised my children or survived most life's trials without her. She IS my children's Godmother....although as adults, I am sure the biggest responsibility she has to them now is to fuss and pray like I do. Alex and Chelsea both know Aunt Nancy is there for them! Nancy was the only choice when I was pregnant with Alex. Stable, smart, and we share the same beliefs. Giving that responsibility to someone is a very hard choice. I never once thought of anyone else. Nancy had my back and vice versa. Alex and Chelsea cherish, love and adore her. It is not hard to do. She is quite the perfect Godmother. The only thing missing is her wand. (and I think she keeps it hidden and only uses it for extremely extraordinary occurrences!!)

Hoping she comes....yes, I am. But, she has had big changes at work and the changes are making it a little tough for her to get away. The bed is made, coffee and wine is bought and I will wait with baited  breath. Nancy is the one I miss the most from this move. She knows she is always welcomed here anytime she wants to come, day or night.

If she can't make it, I got an email from Fanthom today!!! Yes, ANOTHER Opera!!! I WILL pay the extra money, snuggled down in my sweatshirt and jeans,munch on my popcorn and soak in every note the orchestra plays, and the performers sing. Funny I saw some silly commercial the other day for kettle chips and they  actually used opera as their muse. It tickled me deep in my belly and that began my newest fun activity. Poor Emma...most people know she is not a music lover. She detests Mommy's Zumba music, but now, I sing opera to her...."Let's go for a walk" makes her run away most of the times. It's kinda fun to put everyday conversation in Operatic form. Those of you who are my music fans, just try it, cause it's silly. Sometimes trying to extend or repeat the word for operatic purpose can make you giggle in your belly.

What have you got planned? Hope yours looks at promising as mine! Who knows what my weekend holds? News should come tomorrow. Either way, I am gonna have another WONDERFUL weekend!!!! Nancy or Opera....BOTH are winners!
