I'm thrilled when I get nominated. I don't count how many and I don't remember how many I've had. I just know it's a lot.

You have to embrace getting older. Life is precious, and when you've lost a lot of people, you realize each day is a gift.

When my children were very young and I was working I had someone cooking for me. I don't have a cook now, I haven't had one for a number of years and I do it myself. But when they were all little it was hard to pay attention to everyone's homework at the end of the day and make dinner.

I have a very good life - I'm lucky enough not to be deprived.
