How Do You Say De-Gorgeous???

Jennifer Lawrence

On a rare Mommy night out, Jennifer Lawrence magically appeared at last night's Golden Globes award show.

Looking drop dead gorgeous is a Givenchy naked floral dress she was the head turner for the to do last night IMHO.

Nominated for her turn in Die My Love (if you haven't seen it check it out) she was still 100% authentically Jennifer Lawrence.

This Mother of two still knows how to work it!

In Dreams

Naomi Watts
Mulholland Drive

"It'll be just like in the movies. Pretending to be somebody else."

"Hey, pretty girl, time to wake up."

"I want you to go back to work tomorrow. You were recasting the lead actress anyway. Audition many girls for the part. When you see the girl that was shown to you earlier today, you will say, "this is the girl." The rest of the cast can stay, that's up to you. But that lead girl is not up to you. Now, you will see me one more time if you do good. You will see me two more times if you do bad. Good night."

"In dreams, I walk with you
In dreams, I talk to you
In dreams, you're mine, all of the time
We're together in dreams, in dreams"

Beautiful Dreamers...Everyone...

MacArthur Park

Kristi Noem

"MacArthur's Park is melting in the dark

All the sweet, green icing flowing down
Someone left the cake out in the rain
I don't think that I can take it
'Cause it took so long to bake it
And I'll never have that recipe again
Oh, no"  - Donna Summer, MacArthur Park

TGIF!

Expect the unexpected then tame that beast

Now who on earth would want to harass poor Dottie Hinkle? IYKYK

Alcohol has taught me when I'm drunk I will walk anywhere. Sober me complains about walking for 10 minutes.

Me walking into 2026 still a bitch. It's a New Year not a miracle.

If today isn't your day remember a year has 365 days, that's all

Always leave when it gets disrespectful, the more you know

Hug me until it stops feeling innocent, that's the ticket

It's pretty disgusting that Trump has no achievements of his own that he has to steal another man's memorial

Being both crazy and self aware is interesting because I know what I'm about to do is insane but I'm gonna do it anyway, there's that

Hump Day & Chill

Watch Out! There's a lizard warning in effect from 4 am on Saturday to on Sunday. Look who's crossing it the most famous lizard of all time...Godzilla!

Thus let us Hump Day & Chill to the King of the Monsters and his legend. 

Here's the synopsis of the original 1954 movie:

"After a dinosaur-like beast - awoken from undersea hibernation by atom bomb testing - ravages Tokyo, a scientist must decide if his similarly dangerous weapon should be used to destroy it"

Wine, Women & Dementia

Seeking healing and comfort in community, a dementia family caregiver roadtrips the U.S. to swap caregiver stories with others who share this journey. The uplifting documentary Wine, Women, & Dementia is a universal story of the end of life journey through the unique perspective of dementia family caregivers. 

This inspiring documentary follows the journey of former dementia family caregiver and filmmaker, Kitty Norton, as she embarks on a cross-country RV adventure around the U.S. Her mission: to meet the dementia family caregiver friends who, despite physical distance, supported and inspired each other through virtual connections.

Meeting in person for the first time, the caregivers share intimate, humorous, and heartfelt stories of their care experiences. Through illuminating interviews over bottles of wine, viewers gain vivid insights into the realities of dementia - from diagnosis to death and heartbreak to humor. It's a physical and emotional trip as the caregivers process and compare their experiences, illustrating that however isolated they are, they are not alone. And that community, regardless how far away, can have miraculous effects to benefit a tough, tough journey.

Director Kitty Norton also authored the popular family caregiver blog, Stumped Town Dementia.

Perfect for Awareness Holidays: National Caregivers Day (February 20), Caregiver Appreciation Day (March 3), Mother's Day, Alzheimer's & Brain Awareness Month (June), World Alzheimer's Month (September), and National Family Caregiver Month (November).

A one hour version was featured on PBS. Watch the trailer here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-aE11n6XjZc
