people challenges different
Everybody has their challenges; I couldnt say that we have more challenges than other people, theyre just different.
editing needs very-good
I'm not a writer, but I'm very good at editing. That's my specialty. I can read something and tell you everything that's wrong with it and what's great about it and what needs to change, but it's hard for me to organize my thoughts.
talking parent support
I never questioned I would have any trouble doing what I wanted to do. I'm not talking about getting to a certain position - or to success. It was just that I knew I wanted to act, and that I would make my living that way. Having the unconditional support of your parents is really freeing.
winning giving way
When something's got to give, family always wins. I couldn't live with myself if it was the other way.
social unnoticed retard
I'm not a social retard, but I prefer to go unnoticed.
home long ready
I'm a bit of a homebody. It doesn't take long for me to get to the point where I'm ready to be home again.
people ashes tables
I wasn't a very good waitress, always spilling things on people and forgetting things. I once spilled ashes all over Mike Wallace's table.
worry live-in-the-moment outcomes
Worrying won't prevent the worst outcome. I've learned to live in the moment, which is not my natural tendency. I've always thought that if I worried about something enough, it wouldn't happen. I forgot to worry about Parkinson's.
amazingly both great grew marriage michael normal parents passed role stay strong though together tough weathered
Michael and I had great role models. Though his father has passed away, his parents had an amazingly strong marriage, as do mine. Both weathered really tough times. For us it has been normal to stay together through difficulties. We grew up witnessing that firsthand.
everybody happiness kids priority self-esteem
Happiness is definitely a priority in our household. That the kids are happy and everybody is comfortable. Self-esteem is very important.
challenges everybody
Everybody has their challenges; I couldn't say that we have more challenges than other people, they're just different.
