Hi my sweet gals! My classroom is looking pretty good. I’ve continued with my sketchyscribe theme: owls everywhere! But I also got to make centers for art, music and theatre. Ugh! Too much fun. Well the kids have a half day for their first day of school and then they get a weekend. Pretty cool,…
I know life is tough right now. You can’t even come here for inspiration. But it will be here, when you are able to see it. I confess it’s hard to write knowing you cannot read this. But maybe someone else can read it for you and let you know that I’m still here. The…
Crazy day huh?! Looked up and saw the fire coming straight toward my school. I figure school is going to be closed tomorrow. The powers that be have already closed your school – I know. Anyway, I still have rehearsal tonight because we are being interviewed for channel KVVB TV. We’ll see if that happens….
Some women will tell you that you need to be better than this gal or that gal. They won’t say it in so many words, but the competiveness will be obvious. Let’s say a gorgeous gal walks into a restaurant. She’s wearing a tight hugging green dress and her hair is beautiful and flows. You…
Our matinee went really well. In fact, grown men and women are coming up to us crying that they love the show. Yes, tears are falling from their eyes as they are talking to us after the show. And folks have been very complimentary of me as well. But I’m very glad to have a…

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….
