I’ll be closing this account shortly, so this is my last #ofmd x #shakespearesunday post. No drama; I just need to go out and do something more boring instead and I didn’t want to slink off without saying so long and thanks for all the fun. (New name for the Crew: Gentlefriends?)

Daughter and her friend are toasting marshmallows on particularly vicious skewers. Had to remind her to, “calm down, Miss Wavy blade.”

Not showtime for a few hours, but the best preparation is dressing well. The top I embroidered and which Con and DJ signed and my late mother’s wedding ring, which I wear on big occasions to feel her near me.
