In honor of my birthday this month, you should please excuse the pun! Yep, it’s time to celebrate. I’m putting away the tax prep work and taking a break from teaching. No performances are booked in the near future. I’m through planning photo shoots & studio time, and happy leaving my You Tube Channel as is, for now. It’s time for a little birthday vacation. My Darling Sweetheart, my beautiful “Labra-dobie-dor”, and I are heading for a cabin in a densely wooded area up by the Russian River. There will be nothing better to do than stare at the fire, relax in the hot tub, put a jigsaw together and eat Shelly’s practically world famous lasagna casserole and some See’s butterscotch squares. It’s a tough life, but somebody’s got to keep the vacation rental industry alive and well.

First, I swam a long way singing standards wearing the cap of a piano bar entertainer, cabaret artist, singer for a bebop influenced group, and then as a…
Creative Space
ByCynthiaIt’s that time of the year when lesson cancellations run rampant. Summer vacations definitely take their toll on my teaching income. That’s o.k., life is full of trade-offs. When business is overwhelming, there’s lots of money. But, if it slows down to a dull roar, there’s more personal time. When I was young, I worried if things were slow, then complained that…
Chance To Share x 2
