I just can’t stop talkin’ Southern. We’re in the middle of our second show. It’s going well. No falls -yet! It’s kinda flat though. I did need to get my nails done for the show. My character is about 60 years old so no more long nails. Sorry, Bea! I decided that my character would…
Our show is in the newspaper today. Not my best picture, but there I am. My hair is not done either. I have a beehive hairdo now. A beehive looks like this… Here’s the article. Bits are hard to read, but you’ll get the gist of it.
I decided to wait until after the performance to post. It went very well. I fell back stage and another actress fell on stage. Who knew acting was so dangerous? But otherwise, it went very well. There wasn’t a dry eye in the place! The play takes place in the 80’s so I’ll be posting…
One thing I love about the Wizard of Oz is the message: you always had the power – you just needed to realize it. It’s such a wonderful lesson about what we CAN do if our mind and heart believe strongly enough. You can go “over the rainbow” in your mind anytime you want to….
This is going to have to be fast. It’s full dress rehearsal tonight. It’s going to be another late night and a very early morning. Tomorrow night is our opening performance. I know I’ve sent you this song in the past, but I love it. It’s so beautiful, but it is a bit sad….
Doing the play this summer has been very good for me. I think I forgot how much I love getting out there under the hot lights and acting my heart out. I went into my classroom for the first time today. I think I’m going to decorate my classroom with theatre stuff. This will inspire…

Please try to send your thoughts and prayers to the firefighters and prison inmates that are up there fighting the fire. Prayers do help! In the meantime, here’s Jerry Lee Lewis and his immortal song “Great Balls…
Everyone is safe at this point. Nothing new to report. I know more folks are being evacuated. You got some good news yesterday: YEAH!!!! I’m still not in school yet. Soon. Very soon. I MUST show up for work on Monday, August 15, 2016. In the meantime just know that this is how I feel…
Aunt Bee was a bit concerned about the family on Facebook today. I told her that both Grandmas are safe right now. She mentioned she was worried about you both too. I think my post will make her less concerned – at least about the fire. The air is so smokey, isn’t it?! I’m right…
Production week has begun. A gentleman from the local paper came and took loads of pictures for the newspaper. So they’ll be pictures of our production of Steel Magnolias in the Entertainment magazine insert in Friday’s newspaper. See if you can see it online. There is also a rumor that the local tv station is…
