02-16-22 Fun chores today
I did have a lot of work, including assisting a client in office figure out some differences in her books. But! Who can resist when a puppy comes to visit. The newest addition to the co-working space is Wren. She’s adorable! A friend posted a picture today of the concert I took Jake to in 2011. Ween was in Vancouver and I really wanted him to see them but had to wait until he was old enough to. They are not for the faint of heart. Unfortunately one half of the leads, known as Gene Ween, had a complete drug and alcohol fused meltdown on stage and the concert ended. It was truly the oddest stage gig I have experienced. And I paid a lot for our tickets, lol. My friend was there as well apparently, in the front row.
I left work in time to pick up my picture I had framed. I love it and didn’t want to just throw it away after finishing it so now I have a new Halloween and Christmas decoration. I had it framed so I can hang it both ways. After that I stopped by the Blind Pig pub to arrange a gathering on closing night. The place is gorgeous and they promised to keep the kitchen open for us. I am looking forward to hanging out with everyone and celebrating the success. The reviews came out on E-Know, an online paper and in the Townsman, our weekly print newspaper and WOWZA. I really couldn’t have paid them to sum it all up so well.

There was a time when I stopped auditioning for shows unless they had a message that needed to be delivered or were for a good cause. They take up so much of your time. It needed to be worth it. I was surprised that I agreed to Produce this show after one read but I wanted to redeem myself for quitting a show in the fall of 2019. There were good reasons, and I don’t regret it but it became important to me to see this show all the way through. I didn’t know at the time what the big picture of that would look like but I sure am glad I took it on.
I can definitely go out with my head held high!
