I mostly had a great time in Toronto, gang. Wayne and I really had fun together and then after he left on Monday morning, the final day of my trip just dragged and dragged. (No pun intended, of course, regarding our play “The Guide to Being Fabulous”!!)
Anyway. I’m home.
And the flight back took forever, because they changed my flight at the last minute and I literally sat in Pearson International Airport for 5 hours, instead of 2.
However, my dear friend Cathy was completely flexible and picked me up in Columbus right on time. And we had a really lovely ride out to Muskingum County. (I’m an hour away from the Columbus airport.) The weather was beautiful and the fall colors were mostly still hanging in there.
My sister blessed me beyond belief by showing up last evening to drive my mom back home, so that I wouldn’t have to do about 5 hours of driving today. So, me, Cathy, my mom, and my sister hung out together for a while last evening, had pizza, got caught up on my trip and on the play — and KonTiki of the Great Outdoors actually came inside and hung out on my lap in the kitchen, while the rest of us chatted and laughed , etc.
So nice to come home to that.

I have no news, really, even though it does look like everything imaginable is cranking up in chaos all over the place!
Phil had some very cryptic coded intel yesterday that I couldn’t decode for the life of me. Neither could Cathy. So I still have no idea what he said. You can try your hand at it HERE, if you haven’t already.

Other than that, I’m just taking it easy here today, even though I have to do laundry and drive into town to get the groceries — and stop in at the health food store, where I used to work, because all the gals I used to work with there, signed a fantastic card for me and got me a little gift (that I love!), to celebrate the play finally opening in Toronto. It was so sweet of them to do that and it made me so happy. So I’m going to stop in there today, too, and give everybody hugs.
(And my co-workers at the train station were just incredible, too. They texted me all during the opening weekend of the show, with happy wishes and smiling faces, and it was just so nice.)
Anyway.
Here is a link to the only free newspaper review of the show in Toronto, if you care to read it! The Toronto Star.
And if you’re interested, here is a 40-second trailer of the show, from Soulpepper Theatre:
Again, I am just going to say, I have creative issues with a lot of these “changes” to our script, but the audiences in Canada love the show and the reviews were very, very good. So on we go.

Oh, and my bank! I had to download a new app for the new “digital banking” experience and it is quite different, indeed. Super fast!! So we shall see where this all goes, gang. (To the RV, I’m guessing!)
Okay. Have a great Wednesday, wherever you are in the world!
Thanks for visiting. I love you guys. See ya!

Some of my “back home again” morning music, while feeding my many happy cats today!! Enjoy!!
