Ok, Ok....I changed things a bit-but so has my life.

Ok-so I am getting away from the Janet Planet thing.....and to my faithful 3 followers out there....I just changed the name and I realized that I need to keep up with this thing called blogging and life. My life has taken a fulfilling joyful turn that has flipped my life upside down....I work with senior citizens-many with demetia. Drum roll please.....I teach drama and improv.Life Enhancement is what they call it. I get blank stares from people when I tell them what I do....in a nutshell-I make people who are at the end of their life laugh and have a good time. This is it for them-many of them have died already and those who are still here don't have much in terms of family.....but I have a mission....I gotta make 'em laugh while there is still time. I love my job....not everyone can do this. I work with people everyday that still don't know my name....they meet me for the first time every day. There are some days where I call Bingo like I was on Broadway-just to make them laugh. I wear a different flower in my hair every day-just to make someone with demetia notice. I make hot chocolate mixed with coffee-because that is what they like and look forward to this treat every morning. When someone's slipper falls off....I act like Prince Charming when I put it back on their crooked feet and call them Cinderella because that makes them smile. There are some people that think I am an angel...what do you think? I just do what I do and it makes me happy.
