I'm adopted from an orphange in Russia and have some birth defects, my sister too, I used to say we came off the "discount rack" haha!

More appropriately, the irregular rack. 😄

And all that energy. WOW !! I got out of breath just trying to listen and keep up.

[@JM-wu8bh]

I bet she accepted this gig right away then re-arranged her set for the audience/venue. Being a comedian is one of the toughest forms of art, but Nancy hit a home-run with this one. Very impressed

Besides being a legitimately funny lady, that last story about her son truly touched my heart.

[@deborahmichele]

I'd never heard of this woman before finding this video this evening, and I have to say: she's really good. I hope she finds a wider audience, but even if she doesn't, she seems to be spreading joy wherever she goes; she certainly gave some to me. Thanks for the laughs, Nancy!

[@nancynorton2854]

Wow! Thank you so much Deborah!!! It is a long story, but I have only been able to let my light shine to smaller audience because of some unhealthy childhood belief's I am still trying to correct. You are motivating me to clear those blocks. So thank you for the encouragement!

Nancy actually had me laugh out loud. Not an easy task. I have ADHD as well. (no Dachshund, but a crazy cat that runs around as if his butt were on fire) I also have depression and watch a ton of comedians to try to feel better. Rarely do I laugh out loud. Thank you Nancy.

I agree with you. I do exactly what you do, I battle with depression and watch this to help make me laugh. Take care! 💜🤗

[@pennys2881]

I am there with you as well. Laughing is good for the soul. Nancy, is wonderful & no cussing !!! It's difficult today to find an amazing comedian that relies on their talent to stand on It's own without using the "F" word etc. I love her !! She should definitely have her own show !! 🥰😅🤣😂

[@cryptonaire2123]

Same. Force myself to watch comedy to find the funny again. Nancy had me chuckling early on!! And she should be on Broadway with the panache and voice!! Stalagmites come from Ground the G Stalactites C Ceiling

Yes. Very enriching. Who knew humor could do that. Impressive.

[@strongheartwoman1931]

Thank you and I am so glad you're day was uplifted by watching my special... feels so good to know I am on my life purpose. When I do live shows, I try to remember to put out this prayer, "may people leave feeling better than when they walked-in." Thank you again for sharing

[@jolenewitzel7919]

[@WMHinsch]

Nancy is a great example of the difference between comedy and humor. As Grady Nutt - one of our favorite humorists (RIP) - noted, "Comedy is the fun you make up. Humor is the fun you observe." Indeed, great humor can arise from the toughest, darkest moments of our lives, especially when we learn to laugh at ourselves in those situations rather than lashing out at everyone else. Having a sense of humor is not in most lists of virtues, but it is, and one that is desperately needed these days.

[@nancynorton2854]

Thank you for your thoughtful and kind words. I am preparing to start a pod cast called "Tromedy" to help folks isolated with trauma join in the conversation and spin our traumas into humor to help heal. Stay tuned.

Yay! Shout out to all the Ozark vegetarians. There are at least a hundred of us and we grow our own! What she says is so, so true about the Ozarks. We put our very first "tiny home" underground--for temperature control and tornado protection. We still use it as a root cellar now that we have a real underground house. People in the Ozarks are survivors.

Dry bar comedy is gold in that sense; comics that rely primarily on telling humorous stories rather than simply swearing where most people wouldn't.

Such a complete Joy watching and listening to your twist to the trials of your life. I, too, at 64 am a firm believer that laughing and having a sense of humor is one of the important things in life. It will be 3 years in September without 1 day or 1 hour off, of 8-11 hour days. If you think that doesn't require a sense of humor, the patience of Job and great Faith...... Laugh til you cry, or through your tears. All that to say, Many Thanks for a break at the end of one more hard day.
