Coming soon! I have the pleasure of sharing the “radio stage” tomorrow with my dear friend Bruce Barber, his co-host Duo Dickinson, webmaster Gary Choronzy, and two folks I have never met. The Real Life Survival Guide tapes a weekly show aired on Sunday afternoons at 4:30 pm on CT NPR……as well as podcasts available through a little spot y’all might have heard of called I-Tunes. These free-flowing conversations address all of the little, everyday things that “niggle” at you, and the ever-changing cast of characters contribute their thoughts/answers/queries on a myriad of topics. The recordings take place in and around New Haven, which is a “homecoming” of sorts for me. My mother and her sisters grew up there, and I have a boatload of lovely memories visiting my Gran, an Aunt, and a few cousins who made New Haven their home.
I can’t wait. Any time I spend with Bruce and Gary is fun, from tennis to earthquakes to college reunions. My guess is that there will be miles of laughter involved. I’ll let you know when and how you can eavesdrop on this lively conversation!

OK, so Irene has come and (mostly) gone. Dehumidifiers and fans still going in the basement. I cannot complain. Seventy hours without power. Fifteen inches of water in my basement no biggie compared to a lot of other things…..one friend 8 days no power, one friend blindsided by nasty stuff, many with nothing. Thank you for only giving me what I can manage, with help.
Mr Eddie is now a million dollar man. He is in holistic care and has more supplements than most humans address with their food. I am cooking organic food for my pooch and have a calendar with what day to add what to what food. Coffee/herb grinder now doggie pill grinder. Good news is he is happier and his skin is better after a few days. Now to wean him off the steroid. And get test results. He is my angel boy.
Oh, and did I forget to mention being in an earthquake during the New Haven Open with my pal Bruce Barber? I didn’t feel a thing, nor did Bruce, but Marion Bartoli did! Check out LiveFromCt.com, and the Real Life Survival Guide………..
And then there is me. Lots of balls up in the air. Lots of things to be decided in next two weeks.
Blessed. Loved. Loving. Respected. Respectful. Lucky woman.
