Saturday Night Fever

.....literally.

My amazing friend Jackie turned 50 in May and tonight was the party...

which was..... a VERY Jackie thing to do..... a retro-disco-night out dancing.

I hate LOUD and CROWDED and...... after painting today this was the last thing I wanted to do.

And honestly I'm really processing Becca's death; I am grieving and it hits me hard at weird moments.

But it's Jackie and she's special so I had to do it.

I told her ahead of time I wasn't staying long which was fine.

And as it turned out I had a great time!!

YES they played Saturday Night Fever.

Jackie was SO HAPPY and seeing her joy gave me a lot of joy.

I stayed a little longer than I thought and surprisingly enjoyed it!

But yes I immediately put in earplugs.

I don't know how people go to these LOUD events without ear protection; it would be too physically painful for me.  I do carry earplugs with me at all times.
