I’m glad I’ve got a production meeting next week for Kendall’s fall show and a new gig in November to put in my calendar. I was beginning to think I was nothing but a housewife and that I have nothing to think about but cooking and cleaning and chaperoning My Kid. It was Greg DeSanto’s [...]

Once upon a time, the fact that I watched the lunar landing (You know, “One small step for man one giant leap for Mankind.”) marked me as a modern child growing up in an amazing time.  For the adults in my world, especially my grandparents who had grown up on farms with horse drawn farm [...]

I suppose the grandparents want to know how the little princess spent her birthday.  And incidentally she loves what you sent!

My Kid and her longtime friend (from playgroup from when they were still in diapers)–they went to preschool–but different preschools–and then when they were 3-years-old we planned their terribly photogenic joint pink-and-yellow themed turning 4 party at the park where all the little kids threw water balloons at her older brother (because it was a [...]

OK so Fresh Direct sent me yet another friendly reminder–reminding me to place my next Fresh Direct order–except that I haven’t thought through the upcoming week and have no idea what I would like to eat/cook/serve my family during the upcoming week…

I got an e-mail recently “When do you want to perform”?  So I am wondering what do I want to perform?  Something old?  Something new?  Something borrowed?  Something blue?  I don’t know.  How much time to I have to think about it before I must claim a performance slot before the offer is rescinded?

Self-induced Frustration

I woke up this morning to the sound of a young female grew-up-in-Montana writer being interviewed about her collection of short stories on NPR.  Hey I’m a young female grew up in Montana writer.  I checked her blog.  In an interview she said something about making time to write everyday.  I thought to myself, “Hey I’m [...]
