Monday was a big day for my family – several birthdays and anniversaries, so congratulations/happy birthday all!

My friend Christine from NEC in Boston came by last night, and it was wonderful to see her. Of course, I look crazy pale compared to her nice California-vacation tan.

I had my hair done today (picture above), I’m a red head! I’m trying to look presentable for my auditions in a week and a half (ahh!). I’ll be in Orlando for a few days and then to Albany. I was glad to hear that family is doing ok after the hurricane in FL – hopefully they will all be like this one.

This weekend is our church choir’s retreat in San Juan Capistrano, which is also the closing ceremonies for the Olympics. We hope that Steven will be able to participate and not have to work like crazy.
