It's been awhile since I mused on my blog site, since that earlier posting, a year ago, I've accomplished a few new things...teaching art and a credit recovery class at a nearby High School for one. It is a new job for me, and one that I've wanted to do for nearly 40 years...yes, that makes me a rather 'old' teacher! But I find that high school kids are good people, earnest, energetic, enthusiastic, and willing to try new things.

I also did another summer musical show, Wizard of Oz. I played Auntie Em. A small role, but it was the role I requested! This is the sixth show I've been in, and I have 'The Artist's Way' book to thank for helping me discover how much I'd always wanted to be on stage, and prompting me (through the exercises in the book) to audition for the Music Man in 1996.
