Marilyn Maye Dispatches My Case Of The “What-Does-It-Matter-Blues” ~ March 27, 2023

She started singing in 1931 and has never stopped in spite of being sidelined more than once. Marilyn Maye has lived through more crap than most of us will ever see. Talk about opportunities for having the blues. And yet she chooses the crow’s nest as her permanent home.

    Love this, Tulis. Marilyn Maye has pulled me out of the blues more than once, although I do have a few technological challenges waiting in my home office, ready to pull me back in. Thanks to you, today I will ignore them.

    Cheer up, dear. You will still be doing your shows in 2045 when you are 95. I’ll be there to enjoy your talent then as always.

    Tulis: Friends of mine were at that performance and loved every minute! Next time she’s in NYC, I’m going with them. I LOVE everything about Marilyn Maye–her voice, taste in music, appearance, etc. but especially how she lives from a place of gratitude. A true role model! xo Maureen

My Father Was An April Fool ~ Monday April 3, 2023

My Father was born on April Fools Day. Our relationship was rocky. Dad wanted things his way because he was the father. I know this because he told me. I wanted things my way because I was the daughter. He knew that because I told him. We drew our lines in the sand, and we waited for the other to blink. For me it was very simple. My father was usually wrong, and I was right.

March Madness – And The Women are WHERE Exactly? March 20, 2023

Is it possible that the women are not given equal opportunity to be seen on national television because they are, well, just women athletes? Good Gravy – could that be? Could something as blatant as public media snubbing of hundreds of college athletes be allowed to happen? And no one is commenting on it? Not even Scott Simon?

A Budget? You Kidding Me? March 13, 2023

Do you have a budget? I have never had a budget. I don’t know from budgets. I don’t want a budget. But I find myself being cornered into making one – whip and chair in hand. We call this – Wake-Up Call: The Advanced Course. I will be leaving my day job within a few months. I have seen the wagons circling for quite a while, but it is a different ball of wax when everyone parks it and hops down for a chat.
