Oh, I just knew this would happen. I waited till the last minute to post and now I don’t want to write a good post and I’m not even convinced of my ability to do so. Then again, is that not appropriate on Wrist to Forehead Sunday?
I had a matinee of Steel Magnolias at Ilion Little Theatre. Before that my husband Steven and I went to the HALO Chinese Auction at the Herkimer VFW and to Rose Quartz Stand, a gem store located nearby. HALO, for anybody that does not know, is the Helping Animals Live Organization, based in Little Falls, NY, a no-cage, no-kill cat shelter. The Chinese Auction, in addition to being their major fundraiser of the year, is one of the hottest tickets in the area. There were a LOT of people walking around, putting in their chances to win a wide variety of marvelous prizes (I donated an afghan myself). We did not win anything, by the way.
Rose Quartz Stand is a business I visited back at Christmas time and intend to go to again. We bought a frog carved from stone for Steven for his birthday (which was Friday) and a dinosaur to keep the frog company (I am a big anthropomorphizer). I intend to write more about the store later, perhaps even doing an article for submission to Mohawk Valley Living, my favorite magazine.
After a well-received matinee of Steel Magnolias, Steven joined me and several other cast and crew members for Applebee’s in Herkimer for drinks and dinner. It was a great time.
Now I am dying to get back to watching a DVR’d Columbo and crocheting yet another afghan to donate… somewhere. Happy Sunday, everyone.

This is so exciting about the Steel Magnolias production! So happy it was a great matinee reception. Hubby is always supportive to join afterwards. Also, so nice you both have similar views on powerful, worthy charities. I like the idea of anthropomorphism. I do this a lot! 🙂
The show went very well, in spite of a few mess-ups by me! Yes, Steven is quite a satisfactory husband. We have a lot in common, for which I am thankful. I think anthropomorphism is fun!
