Yesterday I watched the movie, Dances with Wolves, starring Kevin Costner. It has been a long time since I watched and I had to look it up on the internet movie database to learn more about some of the details. It was based on the Lakota Sioux and the Pawnee tribes, as well as the U. S. Army, shot on location in Colorado and South Dakota, and was basically a true story. I thought it was very touching and very sad, but very well written and well acted.

Today is Fat Tuesday – the last day of this year’s Mardi Gras season. They have been celebrating in New Orleans for about a month with parades, parties, fancy balls and lots of silliness. There was even a parade to honor dogs, by the Barkus Krewe. That was fun!

We will be partying until midnight at a local cajun and boogie blues bar, and then we have to go to church in the morning to observe Lent.

Happy Mardi Gras!

We grew up watching reruns of the Three Stooges on Saturday mornings along with all the cartoons and Mickey Mouse Club shows.

I wonder why they have not done an update or remake of those. They were so funny!

Hope you have a wonderful Christmas!

Some girls like to wear pajamas. Other girls like to wear nightgowns. Some sleep in the raw, but I’ll never admit that here on the internet! I have both pjs and nightgowns in the dresser drawer. Which one I wear at night depends on my mood – and on how cold it is supposed to get overnight.
