Yes, I am at times, but I am referring to my McCoy Pottery wall pocket. McCoy made lots of wall pockets ~ some I like, some I don’t. My friend Heidi was shopping one day and called me about this little cuckoo clock. It was a great price and she ~ despite my skepticism ~ thought I would love this. So I told to go ahead and buy it. After hanging it on the side of my cupboard, I had to agree that it was a keeper. It is very sweet and I have written before about my love for McCoy’s birds.
This little guy is so cute! How could I resist?
We’re having a good time, husband and I, despite my ridiculously busy schedule. Today is my day off so we have had the chance to actually spend a whole day together. I got a little frustrated over the weekend at my lack of free time. Sunday night I had to attend a preview performance at the same time my husband was to sing some of his songs at a local club. I solved the dilemma by watching only the first act (which was the one I really had to hear) and then I hightailed it over to the venue in time to hear Don! He was great, as were the other performers ~ everyone played acoustic guitar and the songs they sang were their own compositions. There was such a wonderful mix of artists with very different styles and I had a great time. The best part, which made my exhaustion disappear, was hearing Don perform. He is very, very good. And, yes I am his wife, but everyone else thinks so, too! He made me blush when he said in his intro that all his songs were about his wife. Everyone cheered. I was incredibly touched. What a lucky girl I am.
Tonight we watch the season ender of 24 – tomorrow I am back in rehearsal, but Don drops me off and picks me up. What a nice treat!

Don’t you love it when we get reminded why we fell in love those guys in the first place?

What fun. Phil and I spend many nights in Nashville going to the various dives hosting Singer/Songwriter sets. The undiscovered and overlooked talent in the area amazes me. Especially when I hear what is playing on the radio.
Have a happy day

Hope rehearsals are going well. I went to Sacramento this weekend to see my niece, Whitney do a superb job of acting in Servant of Two Masters.
OH my, the cast did ad lib and embellish! Silvio was played by a guy who perfectly channeled Keanu Reeves. HI-larious!
Beth says
Very cool! Didn’t we all dream that the lead singer was singing to us? You are a lucky girl!! Let us know if Don will be taking his show on the road.
