This past week has been all about my entertainment queen, Ms. Dionne Warwick. Monday I was prepping to co- host a radio interview with John Batcho, Mr. Sports, 94.7. Tuesday we engaged in the interview with Dionne which was a major milestone for my LIFE! Saturday afternoon Hubby and I practically destroyed our bedroom dressing room as we tried on one outfit after the next - trying to find the perfect set that would work with our Dionne Warwick T-shirts. AT LAST, I settled on this cute sparkly black chiffon jacket to accentuate the white T-shirt boasting Ms. Warwick's gorgeous blondish-gray coiffed hair, beautiful eyes, high cheekbones and brilliant smile. I wore well-fitting black jeans with sequined pockets and black suede high ankle-strapped heels. Oh, and I wore THEE BOLDEST BRIGHTEST bracelets I could find because I wanted Queen Dionne to see me from the stage, clapping with the beat and applauding her performance on "EVERY - SINGLE - SONG." 

Now, here we are. Hubby and I finally at the Robins Theater to see Dionne Warwick "live" for the 2nd time. The 1st time 10 years ago and it was wonderful, but it was during the period in my life where I had given up the hope of ever singing again, and that period lasted for decades. Now, fast-forward to this week of March 9, 2026. A time in my life that I am actually performing Ms. Warwick's music on stages before live audiences... This night, all I wanted to do was hang on to her every note, her every inflection, her every interpretation of every phrase... and to somehow say, "Thank You." Thank you Ms. Warwick for all the voice lessons and performance lessons that I continue to glean from you every day; morning noon and night - as I listen to, and practice, and sing your music. I never conceived that I could actually have a future singing this music I love, but God. So, if anyone wonders why I've been so over the moon this whole week, why I call Dionne Warwick my Queen, why I love her so very much,... Well, now ya know.
