Yes Cassidy...How are thing with you??? Haven't heard from you in a few days...
HUGS my friend!!!!

Hey guys......sorry that I have been MIA.  Hubby had another stent put in his leg and this time he was in pain (you know what that's like...a man in pain, lol).  Between work, taking care of him and helping out with the new baby and my older grandson...very little "me" time!!  There is some concern over asymmetry in my new grandbaby's face, apparently head compressions during contractions may have caused this before they decided to do the c-section.  The pediatrition in the hospital seemed to think it would take care of itself and the bones in his face would go back on there own without treatment.  Well.......of course, the pediatritions office that my daughter uses showed more concern, and they will monitor him for a month, and then on to the neurologist. Needless to say.....my daughter is now beside herself with worry.  I must say I miss the old days........before all of these tests, ignorance was bliss!!  Btw......it is barely noticeable, but enough to be a red flag.  I will keep you all posted.  Thanks for the shout out View and CEK, and anyone else that I missed!!  Hope to chat soon!!!  April..........always on my mind!! xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

Here's a short video of Brandy rehearsing for her role as Roxie.  I believe she has been playing in Chicago since this past April...but is done August 2nd or thereabouts.  She has a new tv series starting this fall.

And then, August 18th Rumer starts....what in between, I don't know.

But here are some of the others who have played Roxie through the years: ( loved the movie, btw - with Richard Gere et al.)

Chicago, the original 1975 Broadway stage musical, featuring Gwen Verdon, and its 1996 revival

Chicago, an Oscar-winning 2002 film adapted from the 1975 musical (and its 1996 revival), starring Renée Zellweger as Roxie, Catherine Zeta-Jones as rival Velma Kelly and Richard Gere as defense attorney Billy Flynn

Performers who have portrayed Roxie Hart in the musical also include Liza Minnelli (who substituted for Gwen Verdon in the original production in 1975), Ann Reinking, Brooke Shields, Ruthie Henshall, Melora Hardin,  Ashlee Simpson, Melanie Griffith,  Samantha Harris, Bianca Marroquin, Michelle Williams,  Christie Brinkley   and Brandy Norwood.  Henshall, Simpson, Shields, and Williams have portrayed the character both on Broadway and The West End.  Bebe Neuwirth, who won a Tony Award for the role ofVelma Kelly in 1997, also portrayed Roxie in the same production in 2006.

Hi, Carrie...

I didn't have any trouble logging on, or posting I guess.  But I can't stay on long.

How are you?  Did you watch PLL last night? I don't watch it, but I do still follow Janel on twitter, so I see quite a bit of stuff about it.  Do you like her with Mike?

Hi View...I'm good....how are you doing?

I did watch it last night....I think it's starting to get good.  The season was moving kind of slow but we will soon know who the killer is.  I really don't know how I feel about her character....Sometimes I think she is good, but then sometimes I still think she is bad.  I guess we'll know soon enough if she is on the liars side or if she is on the A side.
