PJ PARTY
I just enjoyed the most remarkable experience with my Red Hat sisters, the Rockin’ Red Suga Mamas. We had a pajama party at an Embassy Suites close to a major shopping area. You know – Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, Von Maur, Taco Bell, Goodwill, Barnes & Noble. I always feel blessed just being around them. We spent so much of our lives in the 20th century and first couple of decades of the 21st sharing the same world history, but we each participated in diverse places with unique individuals. Unknowingly, many of us were in the same place at the same time and are familiar with similar issues that offered different outlooks. Others of us come together knowing nothing of what the others’ life involvements have been. Through conversations at lunch, dinner, and breakfast, we continue to learn. Food really helps to bring the world closer.
Then, of course, there was the PJ party for fun and pleasure. There are about five dozen Rockin’ Reds. We meet monthly and are not always able to have in depth talks with each person, so it’s wonderful to meet occasionally in smaller groups where we can each be a part of a segment of another’s rich life. It is truly and honor and a blessing to be a part of this group of amazing women who have endured so much, risen so high, and become benevolent queens of their own lives.
