Old Friends and New!

Hello Blog readers!  I'm sorry for the delay in posts.  It seems my existence here in da Harbor is a little more demanding than I thought.  I love my job at the fort and everyday I try to add some new material to my performance.  I learned quite a few Civil War songs, now it's on to more tall tales from 1870.  I also have written a script for some evening tours, and I must say I'm quite pleased with it (didn't I say I was going to write in Copper Harbor?).

Mr D came and visited me, and of course he took up my attention as he always does.  He seems full of kindness and love, and I felt blessed to spend some time with him.  Though we are facing some complications, it's always good to know that you have a trusted companion who knows your faults and loves you anyway.

My roommate and I have quite the system for chores around the sauna in which we live.  We alternate doing laundry once a week and plan out our meals together so that we can grocery shop and split the costs.  Yes, that's right I have been planning what I eat more than a week a head of time.  I have never been so organized in my life.  E certainly has made a new woman of me.  Of course, I've had my effects on her as well.  I have her on an exercise regiment.  Of course we always reward ourselves with ice cream so I'm not certain how useful it really is!

In short I miss my friends and family everywhere else and wish they would come and visit, but, like always, my friends here are becoming so close and dear to me, I can hardly imagine a different existence.
