I am Ginger!

I am Ginger Grey, daughter of Matthew and Cassandra Grey, granddaughter of Tom and Starr Grey. My sister is an actress, my aunt Kate is an actress, my aunt Antonia was an actress, my grandmother was an actress. I want to be a housewife like my mother. I want to live in a home and take care of my family, cooking and cleaning are my hobbies. Now that I am a teen, perhaps mother will let me cook dinner sometimes. I've been reading about some wonderful recipes like roast beef and huckleberry perserves. We are moving to a new house the next simday. It's smaller and the whole family seems upset about it...except for Marilyn and I. I think it's a quaint home, hopefully I will inherit it. O, do you like my dress? Mother brought it for me from A.Pentragnani. I love it!

I'm Ready!!!!

I am going to conquer the world! How you ask? I don't know yet...but I will. I might become a pirate, wouldn't I be a cool pirate, maybe I could run an illegal operation, or perhaps I'll just work for a local business.


Daddy laughs at me when I tell him me dreams of domination, he says "Marilyn, slow down, enjoy life." I'm ready for life to be NOW!!! I want to rule the world!!!

Courage

Things change so quickly. One minute you're enjoying time with your parents, a large home, prestige that comes with fame and then the next minute, you're mourning your parents' death, moving to a home less than a third of the size of the current one and feel as though you are now the bottom of the barrel. *sigh* I must be strong, for the children. Ginger and Marilyn don't care about prestige and reputation (they just had thier teen birthday as well as you can tell in the photos-Matthew is blocked by Hazel Starr), but Hazel Starr...she feels like her life is over, collasped. Hopefully we will get enough from the sale of the home to pay off the back taxes, otherwise I would have to get a job...I can't do that!

Moving

This is it. We are moving. We're selling the house to pay for the back taxes, then we're going to move to one of the affordable homes on Fuji. Cassandra is beside herself in grief over losing the family home, and Hazel Starr...well, she can't believe that she is going to have to live with the "commoners". The house is a two bedroom home-all the girls will share the second bedroom. I have to provide for my family, this is a blow to my ego, but I don't want to go to jail and then what? Cassandra doesn't work, the only income is my salary from the coffee shop and that's been reduced as I'm no longer the manager, just a cashier...maybe I can look into working at the bank. There's an opening for a teller/manager. I could maybe make more money there. But not enough to pay all these bills-$50,000 in back taxes! YIKES!

Grandmother's Ghost

I still see grandmother...I wonder what she's trying to tell me...maybe to continue my acting and not to let what's going on hurt me...I've been considering auditioning for MMAM2 with my bff Etta Leigh, or maybe I could move to a bigger city, there are no opportunities in this small town anymore. Pooh!
