11-19-21 Endless Summer sounds!
Stacey gave me a tree that I took to work for outside of my office. It is a bit misshapen out of the bag but Cindy came and did an awesome unfold and fluff service. It will get more decorations soon and I will take another picture. I love that it came with lights, berries and cones.
Today was pretty productive on the paid and unpaid front. I arranged Lukas to come help at the theatre tonight, handing out stickers. He did such a good job. I wish I had taken a picture. I was there with several hats on tonight. I scanned tickets at the door, took pictures and videos for our archives, tended bar during intermission, emceed during the last break and then stuck around to clean up the green room afterward. Got home at 11:30 after Dave graciously took all the things to return to Maureen. I have zero complaints as it all went so smoothly and the whole crew that put it together was awesome, from the planning at Board meetings to the gathering of supplies, staging for the bands to charming intros by Dave, crewing by Jamie and cleanup by all. The bands left happy and the audience even happier. I must say it was lovely to hear the audience hoot and clap for our sponsors as I read them out. I am so grateful to the team members who apply for grants that allow us to put on these concerts. To have the theatre sold out at half capacity for free to eager, music loving folks is such a thrill after all this time.
I also had a great highlight when my besties in England filmed themselves with the seasonal items I sent. Gosh they make me smile. So much love both ways.
Woke up this morning to snow and a bunch of inflatables laying down on the job. They also make me smile. Cheerful things take the sting out of any darkness, brighten any week filled with loss, make a day better.
The three bands that played tonight were Shiva, Tall Timbers, and Pretty For the People. Three cover bands that covered from the 60s to the now.
