Women, starting in January
Started dating a lovely new man.
two shows
First was Death by Design--an Agatha Christie like comedy/mystery. Great fun playing the Irish maid that solves the murder.
next was a family drama about Alzheimer's and dying and end of life choice ( i.e. assisted suicide)
just a little light entertainment...not. VERY challenging role for me as the wife of a man determined to die at a time his own choosing--wonderful work by all involved excellent reviews and audience reactions
next, in May Seymour and I Acknowledged that our relationship had changed to a friendship, not a partnership and that it was time for us to change our living situation to reflect that. it had been a long time coming-- and was very difficult face for me at times-- but has been a very good move for me.
so.. i had to get my finances/employment in order and find an apt all of which finally came together in September and I moved into my own little place. i love i!!! still not completely done moving--i had a lot of stuff at Seymour's and my new place is tiny--but baby steps and I'm getting there
i have been working as a nanny and it has been good but I'm leaving that position to go to Omaha to do a show with the Nebraska theatre caravan--a gig I booked through the auditions in February. more hard choices as I'm not sure what I will be doing to earn my rent when I get back but must have Faith in myself that it will all come together!
And last I've started Dating again--a lovely man Bob, that I have known for several years: we were in Harvey together back in 2011, and then is several shows over the years. when We first met we were both in long term relationships, then his ended, then mine ended and we ran into each other again in late summer and have been seeing each other ever since. Very nice. Weird to be just dating after living with someone--but we have so much fun together it is just perfect for now.
