Deb took me to WICKED at the Kentucky Center for the Arts as an early birthday present. We met KK and Kyle for Mass at St. Louis Bertrand first. Then Deb and I went to the play. It was WONDERFUL!! I highly recommend it to anyone who likes THE WIZARD OF OZ. This is based […]

I’ve decided to write short blog posts. Maybe I’ll write every day that way. I am heading across the pond on Wednesday. I promise to let you know about the wonderful trip that Caitlan, Kyle and I are going to take. Anyway, here are a few highlights from this weekend and the past two months: […]

“I Wish I Were in Love Again” by Lorenz Hart The sleepless nights, The daily fights, The quick toboggan when you reach the heights— I miss the kisses and I miss the bites. I wish I were in love again! The broken dates, The endless waits, The lovely loving and the hateful hates, The conversation […]

Yesterday was not a happy day, at least not at first. I had to take off work to go home and search out all my info on what was in my stolen purse so that I could cancel and/or report everything. But somewhere in the interim, Dana called me to say that Lee had two […]

Jerome called me yesterday on the way back from Danville. Mombo and I had just enjoyed POLLYANNA at the community theatre and saw Bruce and Lee perform.

I never travel without my box.. . . I love “Amahl and the Night Visitors.” It was the first operetta written for television. By Menotti in 1951. I don’t remember seeing it then of course, but not that many years after. And every year after that for many years. John and I used to go […]

It started out that I was going to teach half the group in the morning and the other half of the group in the afternoon.  The main teacher would be the reading remediation teacher because this was a reading remediation program (now called literacy). We would have 12-15 kindergarten and first graders the first week, […]

Adventure Number Two: Within a week I have had the opportunity, thanks to Deb, to see both Neil Berg’s 100 Years of Broadway and Man of La Mancha. They were both at Norton Centre–the cultural hotspot of the Western Bluegrass. I was mesmerized. I want to play the piano like Neil Berg (http://neilberg.com/). I want […]
