My life is so busy now, so very busy, Most of it is good - things I love. Spending time with friends and loved ones, doing theatre and other things I enjoy. But when those types of things start filling up my days, then free moments are filled with the necessities of life: paying bills, washing dishes, running errands, which aren’t exactly fun, ( Read more... )

Tonight after I got home after rehearsal, I went upstairs to the bedroom to put some things away. I was in the walkin clothes closet, hanging up a few things, when I noticed that one of my shelves looked particularly dishevelled. The shirts that were normally tidy were in a bit of a mess.

When I pull up outside the rehearsal space, there are people already in there. In the quick drive by I do, I see there are parents with children.

I have mentioned it here before, but I am an asthmatic. For the most part I have it under control, barring the odd attack, I do pretty well. But I have found that I need to get a moderate amount of exercise regularly because my lung capacity (like so much else) is one of those “use it or lose it” things ( Read more... )

morty_baby - One of these days I’m going to head up north and we are going to sit on your porch and drink wine (or vodka) watch the cows and talk gardening. You are a funny, witty lady, and since discovering that we both have long toes, I now know that we are related, sisters separated at birth.

So, a couple of weeks ago I sat down with a flop at the dinning room table. I looked at my husband in dismay and said, “Michael, I need you to something with my hair. It hates me ( Read more... )
