I mentioned here about my job playing Milly, the slave girl. It was so much fun!
I couldn’t have asked for a better first day. I arrived early at the mansion, to get thoroughly briefed and meet the other actors. We were handed a schedule of the times we were supposed to give our speech, three of them in succession. My friend (the gal who recommended me) and I practicing our speeches on each other while we were waiting for the students to arrive.
I was rather nervous with the first group that trudged in, but I think my story came across. They were very impacted at what “I” had to do every day. “Chamber pots? Yuck!” I was a lot more relaxed with the second and third groups, and to use the cliche’, and I really felt like I became my character. 
If I could change one aspect of the job, there would be a roaring fire in the kitchen. It was quite a task to keep warm in there.
Not enough pictures as I would wish, but here are the two that Mom snapped soon after we got there. One of these days, I would love to take many pictures of the old beautiful house.
