Hi Y’all,
Was anyone else in stitches at The Fox Theatre last weekend?
Jeff and I went to see Leanne Morgan: Just Getting Started.
Hilarious! Leanne Morgan Leanne Morgan
We happened upon Leanne on Netflix (I’m Every Woman) and decided to see her live at The Fox.
How is it that all of a sudden we find ourselves at a stage in life where jokes having to do with old people make us laugh out loud?
Where has the time gone?
Leanne spoke about topics having to do with the likes of orthopedic shoes, cpap machines, aging bodies, memory loss, grandbabies, sex over 50, caring for elderly parents and much more...and we laughed, hard.
If you like southern humor and southern ladies you’ll undoubtedly be entertained by Leanne’s wit and authentic delivery.
One thing she talked about last Saturday night keeps crossing my mind (lemme tell you she strikes common cords):
In the Netflix special (I’m Every Woman), Leanne shares a story about a 58-year-old divorced friend who is trying to “get out there and get a man.” Her friend hasn’t begun to date in the Netflix special but her hunt is on.
During Leanne’s recent show (Just Getting Started) she shares happy news about the same friend finding someone to date and goes on to report how “lucky” the friend has been getting.
Leanne talks about sultry, hysterical things her friend does to ignite sparks into her newfound, 58-year-old dating adventure. Things like sneaking tiny panties into the man’s suitcase when he travels for golf. And how difficult it must have been for the gentleman to concentrate on his game after discovering them.
Remember the honeymoon stage y'all?
Anyway, where I’m going with this is that Leanne reverts the conversation to herself and how she wears years-old-this-and-that to bed and around the house...never thinking to stick tiny panties in her husband's suitcase as he departs on a golf trip or any trip. She talks about the type of clothing she wears that should “probably have been thrown out years ago”. Leanne repeats, "I'm gonna try and do better; I'm gonna try and do better..."
Relate?
I, too, love some of my old, comfy stuff that I wear around the house...but I'm gonna try and do better...
Indeed I loved the above joke. But my favorite overall part of Leanne Morgan is that she is a Christian. She effortlessly incorporates that fact with ease and grace.

Thank you for reading!
Love, Shelley
