I was wrong; they didn't move. The noise went on until around 3 a.m.

Groan.

I am personally responsible for a fraction of the increase in posts as I was not around for 2022.

That may be the case for me, too.

Yup, welcome back.

Today, a day of rest and continued recovery. It’s just so wonderful to wake up to the feeling of a lousy cold having left the building.

Yay!

I had a phone call this morning a bit after 8 a.m.

I was invited to New Year's Day lunch at my cousin Debra's!

Hooray!

Now to shower and shave.

Hooray, enjoy the company.

My hope for 2024 is a smooth closing on our old house and less upheaval than we had in 2023.

Smooth house selling vibes!

It would be nice if my new play - nearly all written - got some attention this year.

But mostly I want good health for all of my family and friends.

I hope both of your wishes come true.

JohnG, it was wonderful to hear that terrific Gretchen Cryer and Nancy Ford song again.  So glad you linked it in last night's posts!

There is a really bad version of the song on YouTube that Gretchen sang live last year. Her voice is shot and off key. It was rather painful to watch
 

I knew Gretchen Cryer. I liked her very much. The last time I saw her, she was moving to California to be close to John. I arranged "Old Friend" for the cabaret act "Just Good Friends," and the New York City Gay Men's Chorus recorded it on their album "Love Lives On." It isn't on YouTube, but the Orlando Gay Men's Chorus performed, although I am not credited for the arrangement and that pisses me off.The arrangement begins 1:24 into the video.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WuQtLOLFMoM&t=263s

The arrangement was "inspired" - if that's the correct word - by my friendship with actor Time Winters, my oldest living New York City buddy.

I met her once. I interviewed her about a business she started up in the Hudson area. It was a gourmet frozen food business. She talked about the business and was surprised O knew her stage work. I think I had an autographed copy of The Last Sweet Days of Isaac.

Am I reading the numbers right, that you're closing in on a major posting millstone, too?  Only 30 posts away.

Gretchen Cryer met her husband David when they were both students at DePauw.

Of course years later they divorced and David married Britt - a lovely dancer he met when they were doing a Broadway play with Ray Bolger.

When he came back to DePauw years later to receive some kind of honor, Gretchen & Britt were both with him.....he stood up and started his speech with:  "I am the most nervous man here tonight, my wife and ex-wife are sitting together in the front row."

Of course back in 2012 I did THE CRUCIBLE with David & Britt at....DePauw.

Guess I'll do a little writing - although I'll admit to having written two pages before going to bed - and then start preparing the spaghetti sauce.

Yesterday Keith got Wordle in three because he went with the word that is the name of our beloved upstairs dog.
