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

Of course years later they divorced and John 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.

Johm is their son. The husband is David. I saw him in 1776 on Broadway, August 1969.

DR Laura I am reading about your bad air quality, possibly due to fireworks and wood burning to keep warm.

I'm having dinner: pork, fried cabbage, and mashed potatoes. I wish I'd baked that frozen pumpkin pie.

My wish for 2024 is to see the end of Hamas and for Russia to leave Ukraine.

I didn't know about The Barra MacNeils. Thanks, DR George!

My pleasure.  I first heard about them when that Christmas special was shown on PBS. :)

I have no idea what 2024 has in store for me, but here are my hopes:
    1. Annabelle and Thatch has a successful life as a book; it would be wonderful if something fantastic came from it but I wrote it to amuse myself and a few friends. I hope others enjoy it, too.
    2. The March ballet performances are a big success and lead to more work; I need a steady income to supplement the Social Security and pension which are not enough to survive on in NYC.
    3. My health improves.
My biggest fear: I don't live to see 2025.

A wonderful milestone!

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.

Today, I'm going to my sister's to possibly play Scrabble and definitely have some homemade cinnamon rolls, and then have lunch with my friend Margo.

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
 

Oh, no. :-\

The remote control for my sound bar stopped working after I changed the battery - one of those small round ones about the size of a nickel.

So after all of these weeks, I took the battery out and turned it over.

And now it works.  I had put it in upside down.

Since summer I have had a photo of Greenland on my Screen Saver.  Today I changed it to a photo taken on New Year's Day 2018.
