Happy Merry, everyone!!!!! I hope you get lots of rest, lots of fun & lots of water this holiday season!!!! Don’t ask me why I look like I was going to slug Santa in this photo! 🤷🏻‍♀️🎄

I’m excited to be doing an hour of standup for International Day of Disabled People 2025 next WEDNESDAY DECEMBER 3rd from 7-8pm. Produced by & — you can watch the performance LIVE on the Disability Pride PA YouTube channel. It’s going to be a FUN one!!!!

Oh Donna! Last night I finally headlined DONNA’S backyard comedy show. {video evidence in my stories}I did an hour of material & stories about growing up Italian/growing up a maniac. I got to see a bunch of the parents of kids I graduated with from and it was amazing. I truly saw human beings who were building blocks for my foundation & I was able to thank them for being my village. Donna, you are one of the kindest, most generous people I know. Thank you for bringing me into your world of wonderful humans. I tried to film myself but I have & forgot that I tried to film myself so I didn’t stand in front of the camera. 🤪 This is why I create in DONNA!!!! I love you, lady! 4 rain dates later and it was worth it!!!! 🇮🇹🍝💚❤️🤍

It’s truly an honor for me as a performer to be invited to do standup at a giant, Italian family reunion. Especially a historic 75th Family Reunion. 150 of the Santeufemio clan gathered in a pavilion at Clever Park and I was the entertainment. The generosity, kindness & meatballs were flowing. I even convinced a little girl that I actually had a meatball baby. Her eyes were 👀. 😂 Thank you for recommending me to the planning committee. I had so much fun & I feel very honored to be included. 🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹
Next up? Donna’s house party! She better have a tent!

I had the opportunity to visit the yesterday. I’ve been a huge fan of this National organization for years having presented at a Pennsylvania conference back in 2018. (Shoutout to my favorite ) I had no idea we have a local branch. It’s an incredible environment, I immediately ran into a bunch of old friends. One of whom is this guy in the photo. Connor who is a staff member & former intern. I met him back when he was a 3rd grader at Wilson Elementary School. (Shoutout to another favorite ) Apparently back in the day Connor even danced on stage with 🤯. It was a beautifu, full-circle experience and I can’t wait to go back and visit again! If you or anyone you know is making that transition from a mental health facility back home, is an amazing resource that helps members make connections, gain experience and find opportunities for employment in the community.
