Day 31 Part 1: The Wonderful Wizard of Oz
If I attempted to conclude this month of #AdamsActs in my current state, I assure you that it would be found lacking. I will reflect on this month and everything I learned and grappled with in a final post tomorrow. In the meantime, I thought I would give a quick update from yesterday's post... I did deliver the pecan pie to Mr. Al and he said the words "barca lounger" a record number of times. We chatted for over an hour and was thrilled to have someone sit and stay a while. He also chastised me for not buying stock in Microsoft, because if I had just done that then, well, I would have made enough money in one week to fix my teeth by now. I didn't take the pie back after this remark even though I sort of wanted to. So, I am counting this as a bonus kindness.
I will write more tomorrow but to hold you over, I have included some pictures of our family's Wizard of Oz themed costumes. I make these all myself as a grand overcompensation of grief and baggage! Enjoy!
ON the far left we have Marlie as Glinda the Good Witch.
Next to her we have Scout as Toto, then me as the Cowardly Lion.
Tom "Always a Good Sport" Capuano comes in as Scarecrow.
London was Dorothy, Harper the Tin Man and Jay was a Winkie (The Wicked Witch of the West's little helper.)
Annalee was the Wicked Witch of the West and her friend Paige popped in as a bonus addition of Oz himself (as seen in back middle.)
They had a great time and then came home to work out all their OCD issues right on the living room floor.
My real post will come tomorrow but for now, I plan to follow the yellow brick road straight to bed.
