Red Carpet wannabe

It was Oscar night at our house, which means a big party. Folks come over to watch the award show, we dress up, bring nominated movie-related food, guess the winners and have a great time. This year was a bit quieter – three regulars out with a) the flu, b) travel and c) second shift work. Plus we had a major (for DC) snow fall that day, which blanketed the area and made us all a little worried the weight of the wet snow might take out our power. Another downer was that the show felt very lllllooonnnnngggg.

But Audrey was a big hit! She dressed up in a beautiful red satin Chinese smock, complete with yellow frogs. Audrey was representing the nominee from China in the Best Costume category. She looked lovely – but sadly her award nominee did not win.

This is Audrey on Oscar Night. By this point she’d shed her costume and paraded around only in pearls. in-pearls.JPG

Last week she went to VOSM for a check-up, bandage change and xrays. Tomorrow she’s back to Dr. Bowersett for a bandage change and check-up. She’s becoming quite the regular visitor – and it’s wonderful to hear the clinic staff cheer when she arrives.
