I have always enjoyed the brisk weather of January – although this January has been pretty mild – the only thing that I have to begrudgingly put up with is having to deal with the snow forcing the school or library to close and having to reschedule. I loved snow days as a kid… somehow they lost their luster when adulthood came rushing in. I still make the best out of the havoc the snow causes but still, I miss being a child and enjoying the bitter cold day of freedom that the snow allowed us.

I will continue the Building Stories Workshop on Saturday at the Plymouth Library at 1:00pm. Call (508) 830-4250 to register today! There are only a couple of slots left so please register as soon as you possibly can!

Also, if you would like a show in the new year please give me a call at (508) 641-5336.

Writing the title of this post felt odd enough… 2016! I have now been telling my tales for 16 years. That’s quite the accomplishment. Allow me to take a moment to feel some pride! I’ve been able to turn something I love to do into a way of life – and I love every second of it!

I am shocked there is no snow yet – even more shocked that the days have been sporting 50 degree weather! I like the snow but I know it sometimes plays havoc with my schedule so it’s always a conundrum for me – my love of the snow or my love for things to continue swimmingly.

Here is the final week of summer shows and while I am looking forward to the small break afforded me in September I am always sad to see the summer events end! I had probably a total of 70 or more lobster rolls… and I’m not kidding – those things are so delicious! Autumn is one of my favorite times of the year, though, so all I can envision are pumpkin and the taste of pumpkin in everything, cool fall nights and the leaves changing. It gets me so excited!

I can’t imagine this summer being any better! I’ve been so busy but also so enjoying this past couple of months! My favorite part thus far is being able to have my daughter join me for some of the library shows. Tonight, while saying goodnight, she told me she really loved the Drive-In. This was fantastic to hear because it is a tradition to visit the Wellfleet Drive-In – one that I am pleased to have my daughter join me.
