David, Elsa, Jon and I enjoyed an afternoon together at the fabulous Fox Theater in St.Louis. The theater itself is so over-the-top, in a style that combines a campy version of Indian, Chinese, and basically all things pseudo Asian that you could imagine.
The Cirque Dreams:Jungle Fantasy production was pretty amazing! Performers from all over the world shared death defying feats in brilliantly colored costumes, and compelling music from an extremely tall man in a tree costume, playing an electric violin.
I am so thankful that God gave us the gift of imagination and creativity.

Status
If I had a Facebook page, I would list my status right now as: Scraping up the brown bits of my life. Even before I knew that those little brown bits that remained after browning meat were a fundamental in sauce making, I liked how they tasted. I'll eat anything, practically.
But back to my life. I feel like the brown bits of the economy and how it has affected my family and me, the political situation in the country and perimenopause have all left tiny pieces of my heart all around me. Some things are good, some not. I just need to know what to do with it all.
So that's my status.
