Just a quick note this morning as I have to leave for the city soon.

Thank you so much for all the wonderful and kind birthday greetings! You made my day.

It was a nicely quiet day, warmer than usual and sunny! I spoke to my best friend and my sister and Don was adorably attentive. He prepared a delicious dinner, we had some sparkling cider in my grandmother’s wine glasses, he somehow found a sugar-free lemon cake – it was lovely. I plan to celebrate all weekend long, but in the meantime, I have to do some coaching today. And days in NYC are long.

Don’t forget to read Wednesday’s book review and leave a comment if you’re interested in entering the giveaway.

More tomorrow.

Happy Friday.

      I know this was a spell check typo “horribly”, but it’s making me laugh out loud!

    Good luck with your city day. Hope it’s just how you want it. (If I were going, I’d high-tail it to ABC Carpet and home and hope for their Christmas decorations to be on display!)

      I’d love to do that, but I never have any spare time when I go into the city to work!

Welcome!

Welcome!

I live in a little cottage in the country with my husband. It's a sweet place, sheltered by old trees and surrounded by gardens. The inside is full of the things we love. I love to write, I love my camera, I love creating, I love gardening. My decorating style is eclectic; full of vintage and a bit of whimsy.

I've worked in the theater for more years than I can count. I'm currently a voice, speech, dialect and text coach freelancing on Broadway, off Broadway, and in regional theater.

Thanks for stopping by.
