Oscars 2010

Bio: I am a 55 year old mother and wife who considers herself a progressive. I write a blog about midlife and all that I find interesting, disappointing, scary, funny and otherwise about it. I am a midwesterner and generally like to keep things clear and simple. www.midriffmuse.com These days, everything comes into question. Who and what is going to get my time and energy? Do I really want to keep everything I've accumulated? Now that my schedule and activities are not dictated by being present for my kids' interests, where do I want to go and what do I want to do? Admittedly, I can sometimes be cranky, opinionated or even downright judgmental, but above all I am trying to be honest, forthright and in integrity with myself and my loved ones. I am often much more amused by myself than some people think I should be.

It was a simpler celebration this year. We didn’t get the strawberries dipped, but we had chocolate fondue. We ordered pizzas, but we also had shrimp. The drink glasses didn’t have gold bows tied on the stems, but the fruit juice sparkled. Shannon was in Stamford; Peggy Bull and Keri Bull were sick; but Katie and I, and Debra, Megan and Thea, put on our makeup and gowns and later de-gowned to pajamas. We feasted and lounged and watched the whole show. Another Oscar night was duly observed.

The young women - short view.

Oh Teresa, I missed this when you posted! I LOVE this, we used to do the same thing with the dresses & the makeup & it was SO much fun! Now we just wear our regular clothes, but it's always me & my daughters eating Round Table pizza (has to have Polynesian sauce) & Better Than Sex Dessert, & we watch & dish & eat & laugh & have a great time. It's a fine tradition! I will have to show you our photos sometime.

But these are wonderful! Okay...so WHO is your designer...? (love the excellent jewelry AND the tiara!) So much fun!! I have never had chocolate fondue...mmmmm...

P.S. -- still waiting for that coffee pot!
