Black Tie Optional, Just Like Life


 Roaming around what is on TV or on streaming devices ( what does that mean??) I come across some fun stuff.

Never before have I seen 'Parks and Recreation', and it has had be howling with laughter. Not BBC laughter, but hooting an octave above, tee-hee!!

Acorn TV is my favorite, I love The Brits and their wicked sense of humor. 

Netflix, Amazon, Disney, Hulu, truly I do not know what they all are, but by George, I can find something!! HBO Max, Tennis and Golf channel. Binge watching is delightful, if you can squeeze in the time.

Black Tie Optional, title of this blog, came from Parks and Recreation, and I thank thee!!!

My only daughter asked me recently about a dress if it was, Cocktail ready? I bought her a gauze shawl, and said it is now. There is not a lot of dress up, its dress down period. Black Tie Optional, I think includes flip flops now!!! I encourage all to dress for some kind of success, even if getting up out of bed, is your only activity. Put on the good clothes, show up!! Perfume the air around you and soak it up. I look very together, to  type this blog today!! Not fancy, just clean and crisp and lipstick on!! Earrings On, hair in a top knot, beach hair!! Its summer.

Yesterday I showed mom some cute shoes, I found in my closet. She loved them, tried them on, and we agreed that they were darling. She then asked me, why I had another pair in my hands, to take downstairs. I told her, these darling shoes, I have on, are 30 minute shoes, at tops!! Just to dress up a tad, until I cant take it anymore, and cave to comfort!! She laughed. They did not even make 30 minutes, however I did leave them downstairs, in case I wanted to slip them back on, to struck my stuff a little, on my way to the laundry room.

Life is hard, we have to make our own joy, even if it is less then 30 minutes. 

I wish you could see my earrings, very cute, birthday present to myself. Multicolored, Freida looking crosses, hanging low!!! I can not have enough beads or crosses, keeping Jesus on my hot line.

So many people needing prayer, my list is long, and I love all these humans. I lift you all up, and know its our fathers will, and The blessed Mother's help, to hook you up!! I'm just a prayer vessel, sending out help us!! 24 hrs a day!!

My prayer last night, was, HONESTLY Lord, there is a lot going on, I can not wrap my head around it. I leave it at the foot of the cross. He smiled, I felt it, and told me to go to sleep. I fixed my pillows, and

spoke again,  Mother Mary, I trust a women in high places, who can multi task, "You heard me too, right?" " Love You"

Black Tie Optional, I am going to be dressed for the dance, at all times!!
