I returned to Broadway last Wednesday, November 17. It was a little more than 20 months since I saw my last show, days before Covid shut down Broadway. I saw The Lehman Trilogy, a deep dive into the 164 history of the famous family business. The crowd was wowed by the 3 plus hour show and the standing ovation was well deserved. It is back on Broadway and is a powerful drama that you should consider seeing.
Every year, on this very same day one of my close friends reminds me of a photo of our boys together in Kindergarten. It is from the elementary school Thanksgiving celebration. They are both proudly wearing their hand made turkey costumes and smiling broad smiles – smiles which screamed “Mom take that picture already.”
Recently I was asked to provide my high school yearbook to be scanned for a preservation project. The request brought me back to a very painful memory. One, I do not believe I truly processed as an adult. I immediately thought of something that had been written in my yearbook. Someone else had written it but, yet, I was embarrassed and ashamed. And I was not sure I wanted anyone else to see it.
You know, you learn something everyday and today I learned that flamingos like doughnuts and coffee. No joke.
The Granby Zoo in Quebec, Canada, reported that a pink flamingo escaped last Wednesday and was found a short time later loitering in the parking lot of a Tim Hortons. Karl Fournier, director of animal care at Zoo, said "To reassure everyone, there wasn't a special on coffee at Tim Hortons."

Days (of the week) and dates (of the month) - oftentimes a single day can be labeled with two identities. Do you focus on the day or the date?A few weeks ago, we received an invitation from our friends for an event on “Friday, 11/11”.
