Yeah, I don’t know how you missed it seeing it was up for all kinds of awards, yo’.

Seriously, I love Tina Fey. I’m almost finished with Bossypants. Hiliarious! I something consider kidnapping her and forcing her to be my BFF. Cuz, I’m a good friend like that.

Thanks Charlotte! That is my grandma playing the grandma. We went to a river casino for a night the week before shooting for and stayed up late “rehearsing”. A great memory.

I’d would love to see pictures of you working out at Mt. Rushmore. You, Debs, and I are kindred spirits! xoxo

Wow Deb! Thank you SO MUCH for the kind words. Next time you come up or I come down I’ll bring it.

So fun learning more about you. I had no idea you were such a crafter. The eighties are back I guess the frilly photo albums didn’t make the cut!

I would LOVE to see the whole film- I can tell that it’s the kind of film that I love- those Indie-cool films. I can see that you are a talented actor. Soooo cool and yes, what discipline it must have taken to do that.

I do have discipline and usually catapult myself 110% into something that I love at the moment. I am fickle however, so the flavors of the day do change re hobbies, exercise preference.

I used to be crafty-creative like making photo albums (actually padding them and making them all frilly- ack- it was the 80s and I actually sold a bunch at a store in the mall). I have dabbled in knitting, sewing, scrap booking, gardening, rubber stamping, jewelry making- again- dabbled- not perfected!

Tips: I think it’s hard to tell someone else how to get disciplined- sometimes I think it’s a hardwiring thing- either you are disciplined or you aren’t, but I’m sure there must be tricks as some of your other readers have mentioned.

LOVE this post- let me know when or how I can see the film.

Oh I want to see this now!!! You look so adorable! (And if that’s you with an extra 20 lbs then I want to be you.) Loved the music and your sweet, earnest face and whoever was playing the grandma! I had no idea you are an actress although it makes total sense now. so fun!

PS> Loved your “craft services” workout too – I took my KBs on vacay with me and did an impromptu workout at Mt. Rushmore!
