![]() Try something new! Today’s colour is yellow. The Aquarius Moon tells us to say no to the rules that were set in place by the Capricorn Moon. Tonight we are under the Aquarius Moon, almost through the 4th quarter. Yup, that would explain the waking up and wanting to correct my writing. It’s about work, rather than play and dotting our i’s and crossing our t’s. ![]() ![]() Whew! It’s been a chatty weekend, hasn’t it? The Capricorn Moon? It’s the “right thing to do” Moon (see above – hello, correction). Here’s hoping for a better night’s sleep. We need to keep that certain friend happy – I’ve known her a long time and she knows waaayyy too much about me. □ I’m thinking dinner with that friend is in order. All of a sudden, February is getting better. “And now for something completely different!”ĭid you know that February 18th is National Drink Wine Day!? Thank you to a friend and reader (yay!) who pointed that out to me. “Moooommmmyyyyy, you have to take it to work with youuuuu, it’s going to die if we leave it at hooooome”. But I didn’t! Could have been worse – didn’t do Pac Man or Transformers. I just wanted to throw myself out the window. Waking up on a Saturday morning to “I love you, you love me, we’re so happy…” blah, blah, blah. I know! It’s because I called the rodent stupid…Ĭut me some slack here – I did live through the “Barney” years with my daughter. Or the colour that day was brown and I didn’t wear brown…Now you think I’ve completely lost it. I probably could have gotten away without the correction now. Or that I’ve eaten magic beans – that was the Friendly Giant, wasn’t it? Or maybe that’s what I had for dinner? □ Perhaps the thought process isn’t all there, waking up like that. Or…they’re feeling sorry for me because this is what I think about. Now I’m thinking no one else caught this, or maybe they’re not reading it, or simply don’t care. Just in case you missed it: Happy Imbolc was the post. Sheri Lewis was the one with Lamb Chop! OK – GO BACK TO SLEEP. Wait, no…Chez Helene was (obviously) French and we didn’t know what the H-E-Double Toothpicks she was saying. Dressup – and I still think Finnegan was creepy. Whatsername on Romper Room had the mirror. “She just saw the good in everything and trusted everyone, even when she probably shouldn’t have.Correction, correction: So I wake up in the middle of the night (because I can) thinking “Chez Helene didn’t have a magic mirror” (eye roll) OMG! “Chez Helene was the one with Lamb Chop” (Mmmmm, lamb chops). ![]() “She brought sunshine wherever she went,” Del Rosario said. Sometimes people who saw her on the show sought her out at home. Del Rosario made the decision because of a string of break-ins and her mother’s trusting personality. Last year, King moved from her home in Hacienda Heights, about 15 miles east of downtown Los Angeles, to a senior community in nearby Chino Hills. Officials later decided to offer the program without accepting a $30,000 grant from China. In 2010, she fought against the controversial implementation of a Confucius Classroom, sponsored by the Chinese government, at a middle school in Hacienda La Puente Unified School District. King was a lifelong advocate for education. She took the job after school officials told her “if you think you can do better, come and do it,” when she complained about one of her daughters’ classes. In her words, that was the end of the rainbow, where the dream was,” her daughter said.Īfter “Romper Room,” she went deeper into education, teaching as part of a regional occupation program that helped high school students learn technical skills. She appeared in advertisements and talk shows in Texas and Kansas, until she was asked to come to Hollywood to host “Romper Room.” But when an actress couldn’t nail the lines, she stepped in and impressed the producers, Del Rosario said. Originally from Oklahoma, King wrote commercials before she ever appeared in one. “She set the bar high for all ‘Romper Room’ teachers, and like all of her much younger students, I always wanted her to be proud of me.” “She was just so important in the lives of so many little kids,” Serrano said. While studying education in college, Serrano looked at King as a role model. It was the first time the two hosts sat together, Serrano said. “That was my little way of encouraging her and respecting her. “She really is the one that most people remember with her beautiful red hair and her lady-like demeanor and her sweet voice,” Serrano said. She presented it to King on Countdown with Keith Olbermann. Socorro Serrano, who hosted “Romper Room” as “Miss Soco” from 1975 to 1990, dug out her Magic Mirror after learning of the theft. ![]() In 2003, a mugger snatched King’s bags, including one containing her Magic Mirror.
