Can't escape the symbolism of the date. September 11, 2001. As much as I don't want to watch remembrances, relive it all, it's everywhere, all around us and a part of who we are. So I will move through all my emotions and say how grateful I am to be where I am, and how honored I am by all of those that are trying to make things better. Let's raise a glass, toast those that are truly deserving, and enjoy this Virtual Girls Night Out!
*The Virtual Girls Night Out is for those that don't have a chance to truly get out of the house but still want to "hang with their friends". So, make yourself a cocktail, put on some cozy "what-ever's" and have fun. Leave a comment to let us know you stopped by. We'll do the same and say "Happy VGNO!"*
