I am at home. My parents are surrounding me and my friend, Cathy, with love, kindness, and laughter. I love seeing my parents through her eyes. We are eating breakfast this morning having lively conversation about personality types and stories. The stories! I hear stories again that I have heard before, but with my friend, the stories have new meaning. I am celebrating friendship and family.
Last night we ventured out to an oyster bar to hear my brother’s band play. What live music does for the heart and soul should be celebrated. One of his band members, Monty, has been playing with him for 36 years. I celebrate my brother, his music, and Monty.
Cathy and I are in Jackson for the Sweet Potato Queens weekend. The theme this year is Braveheart, so we wore plaid tutus to the Big Hat Brunch. Cathy made the skirts as well as our hats which reflect our own personal theme of “birds of a feather.” I celebrate Berry Queens, friendship, and Cathy’s creativity.
So full of family, friendship and fun! A happy read!
Thank you for such a joyful blog. Connie

Margaret, I always love reading about the way you life your life. It’s so joyous and fun. You are the essence of joy. 🙂
Queenliness – I knew what that word in your title meant! I also love your celebration of live music. And isn’t it fun to share time with family and friends together? Happy weekend!

Love hearing about your family, Margaret, but also friends, those ‘birds of a feather’. Sounds wonderful.
