I love being able to take a nap in the afternoon.

I'm a very ritualistic, routine-oriented person, and I discovered over the years that I love working Monday through Friday.

I love to hand sew. I sometimes make clothing for my children, which of course they grow out of in a matter of minutes. I thoroughly love it.

Being a single mother was the right thing for me. But I have a tremendous amount of help from my friends. They're in love with my kids, and my kids are in love with them.

I have this dog named Marley, and it is a kind of love I had never known. I have a hard time believing Marley did not come from my body. I know that sounds insane, but I feel that connected to her. She made me realize I wanted to adopt children.

I was able to support myself by acting alone about six years ago. Until then, I was just scraping by.
