“[My grandparents] had this wonderful stone cottage on their farm, on their property that I think originally had been a slaughterhouse,” she shared on Julia Louis-Dreyfus‘ Wiser Than Me podcast. “But it was made into this really cozy cottage. And that was my first memory, in that little cottage.”
“I have decided that I am going to end my days in that cottage,” Glenn added.
She noted that it was stone, and “it had ivy on the front. It had a, literally, a white picket fence around it, in the middle of a hay field and woods. So I decided when I was building this house, because I’m living my life backward, that behind the house I was gonna build a cottage, a stone cottage. Because the happiest and most inspiring years of my life was in that place.”
Glenn revealed the cottage will have two bedrooms, one for her and one for her caretaker.
“And that’s where I’m gonna die,” she said. “Happily.”
“I think the stone part is built. And I think this week they’re starting the porch,” she added of the construction. “There’s a little porch that goes down onto a terrace that’s between the cottage and the bigger house. It makes me so happy to think that.”
While she may already be setting plans for her death, Glenn shared that she still feels very young.
“Oh God, I feel probably around in my 20s. Maybe early 30s,” she dished. “When I think of how old I actually am, it just amazes me. So I don’t think about it much. Cause I don’t think I fit into whatever people expect you to be like when you’re 78 years old.”
The first season of Glenn‘s Hulu series All’s Fair recently wrapped up, and it’s already renewed for season two.
She also stars in the knew Knives Out movie, Wake Up Dead Man, which debuts THIS Friday (December 12)!
