It’s that time again – parent/ teacher conferences. And now’s the time to say what needs to be said. I had ten conferences yesterday but only eight showed up. The first one included my principal. A little gal in my class has been bullying the other kids, but she’s convinced the other kids are the…
Here we are again! The snow has come and gone and another first day of spring approaches. I found some hollow Easter eggs for our Easter Egg hunt during our Safari themed Spring Vacation. Should be fun to hunt for THESE eggs. Since we won’t really be hunting animals in our story. We may shoot…
A selkie is a legendary creature – like a fairy or a mermaid. I wrote this short screenplay when I lived in LA. You need to play the following music as you read it. It goes along with the story. I hope you like it. I’m writing EACH of you an episode too. I warn…
In case you haven’t noticed, holidays tend to stretch for me a bit. Friday was St. Patrick’s Day but I’ll probably enjoy “the day” all weekend long. I made corned beef and cabbage for the first time last night. So easy! You just put the beef in a crock pot and boil (yeah, like an…
The show was a smash last night! My boss was thrilled with our performance. Here’s a bit of Irish love for you on this fine St. Patrick’s Day!

Hi Supergirls! My report cards are STILL not done (I’m bad!) But I’m working on my movie and that’s more important right now. I’m finishing up the last few touches: making a bat sign pattern for our new follow spot… I’m also adding curtains to the flat, and finding music to “warm up the crowd”…
It’s been a nice Sunday. We took Grandma out for a few errands and then I dropped big bro off with a friend. Then I came back and sat outside on my porch. I got some work done. Report cards are due Tuesday, so I might get a little quiet for a day or two….
Some people say the best therapy is to sit with someone you trust and tell them how you’re feeling. I’m not going to tell you that doesn’t help, sometimes. But, there are times that it is best to be silent. When speaking means you’ll hurt people you love, keep your mouth shut. I know how…
It’s the Festival of Esther and the Sabbath! The rabbi is going to read the story of Esther in the temple and folks are going to dress up like the characters from the story: Esther, Haman, Mordecai and the King. I think I’ll just stay home tonight and watch an Esther movie. It’s been a…
