ID: several photos of Maureen in her car wearing a white KN95 mask that has pink-ish lips and sewn up brown lip marks on it. She is wearing black make-up around her eyes like a sunken skull, and she has some contouring pink and pink sparkles. There are also pink sparkles on her eyelids and in her eye brows. She’s wearing a big, puffy light pink headband and a fuchsia satin scarf with lipsticks on it.
In various photos she has slightly different head angles or eyes open/closed. In the third photo she’s standing outside of CPA High School with the school@visible in the background.

Maritime Concert Opera is celebrating 20 years of

Maritime Concert Opera is celebrating 20 years of opera!!!
I’m going to be singing song classics with some beautiful friends. If you can make it to à Lunenburg Sunday afternoon at 2:30pm, we’d love to celebrate with you!

ID: poster with light blue textured background, yellow bunting underneath a frame shape that frames the words “20 years of opera Sunday Oct 22, 2:30pm at St. John’s Parish Hall, Lunenburg, NS.”

Text under the frame is a shortened version of the following: Join us for an afternoon of favourites from operetta and opera as we celebrate 20 years of friendly and accessible performances of classical music with Maritime Concert Opera!

Since 2003, MCO has presented over 35 full-length productions in concert, including Bizet’s Carmen, Mozart’s The Magic Flute and Don Giovanni, Verdi’s La Traviata and Rigoletto, Puccini’s Madama Butterfly, Suor Angelica and La boheme and a number of operettas, including Gilbert and Sullivan’s Mikado, Pirates of Penzance and HMS Pinafore as well as Lehar’s The Merry Widow and Strauss’s Die Fledermaus.

Excerpts from many of these works will be performed at the concert on October 22nd, performed by well-known local singers, including sopranos Maureen Batt and Beth Hagerman, tenors Patrick Simms and Andrew Pelrine, countertenor Andrew Pickett, baritone Rob O’Quinn and bass-baritone Jon-Paul Décosse and mezzo Nina Scott-Stoddart, accompanied by pianist Tara Scott.

Tickets are $25 per person and are available at Kinley’s in Lunenburg or on Eventbrite online.

Also, I recently learned that people above 150lbs might need a differently sized needle. So this morning I called the pharmacy where I was about to get my vaccine and they had the different needles in stock… but they were in a storage room down the hall. And after a consultation with the pharmacist the differently sized needle was used on me! And I felt NOTHING.

VERY glad I asked. Otherwise it would have been the other, usual size and maybe not as effective for me.

ID: Maureen is sitting inside her car, boasting a VERY big, toothy smile, with joy sparkling in her brown eyes and big dimples. Her mascara is bright blue. Her dark red hair is tied up in a shoulder-length pony tail. One gold earring is visible on the left side (her right ear). She is wearing a black sweater with multicoloured knit confetti-like balls and a black coat.
