The list is getting shorter, I got so much done today. For a Thursday, it was very satisfying. As I finished each file that I would not be working on again due to my contract ending on Oct 31st, I emailed the client, thanked them for our time together and assured them they would be …
I had a decent sleep dispute the fireball attached to me. I have always been a hot sleeper and now I have a hot sock and boot to enjoy. It’s garbage day so I texted Matt. His response was the best! Keri picked me up, bless her heart. There really are so many sunny sides …
Slept much better, set no alarm hoping to get all the sleep I needed and then get working on a file from home. My connection to the remote computer wouldn’t work so I contacted Phil their IT guy and he eventually got me going. By then I was scheduling my day to take advantage of …
I am my own worst enemy when it comes to giving my body what it needs to heal. I had three major hand surgery in 11 months and I barely had two days off total when it was supposed to be 6 weeks each. Now I’ve been told to rest and make sure this toe …
Set out to do some gardening. Got my whole bulb bed redone and then everything went sideways. The previous owners left a very heavy concrete lion. It has been a topic of conversation but I wanted it moved. I picked it up and started moving it when suddenly it fell sideways onto my foot. It …
A young lad asked on Facebook if anyone needed chores done as he was raising money for a new bicycle. I hired him today to help me in the yard. The first impression was that he was smaller and younger than I expected. Turns out he’s been boxing for 6 years and is strong and …
Worked so hard on a tough file, met with Maureen about CCT treasurer stuff, went and bought my appliances and got some great deals. They will start arriving next Friday! super grateful to get to theatre early and have time to fix the things Pepijn and I discovered wrong. The special effect over the stage …
Octo means 8 and i find it interesting that October is the eighth month since we became very aware of COVID-19 and all the changes in our lives began. It is also the day that the Trumps announced their diagnoses. This doesn’t bring me joy but it does feel like, well, it’s about time. seemed …
I worked for most of the day and then headed to The Dainty Nail for my first set since February. Krista works in an office across from mine and is learning to do nails in her home. She charges a lower rate and is continuing to learn her skills. I am pleased and able to …
Arrived at work to find my daughter Rae-Anne just walking out and we had a great parking lot visit on a stunningly gorgeous Autumn morning. Seems she had dropped off flowers! I will admit that flowers are part of my love language. I had a husband once upon a time Who wouldn’t buy me flowers …
Headed out to jump in my car this morning and found the deer had partaken of the salad bar I provided. Rise buds, sweet peas, hydrangeas, sun flowers, dahlias, etc etc, all gone. The joy in the day was getting a parcel from Amazon and transplanting my wee spider plant in the office. And then …
I had secured the services of a young local man to help me put away my pool and mow my lawn as he was trying to raise money to buy a bike. at the 11th hour or there abouts last night I received a message he was running a fever and wouldn’t be able to …
I was on Lake Titicaca with an amazing group of human beings whom I still call friends to this day. Nigel put together a slideshow and with credit to him but no permissions I am sharing it. I remember being amazed that Bolivia was across the water My day here in the northern hemisphere was …
A day of satisfying reconciling, lunch out with the crew at Firehall, meeting about future board issues, making lists and getting to the theatre for opening night. I am tired now so my communication will be short but suffice to say much was accomplished and I am happy to support the actors who left their …
Awoke to a beautiful thank you shout out from the show director. To work early, nose to the grindstone. I finally got what needed to be accomplished done in time for the deadline and then felt like falling into a hammock. Instead I went and did some errands and then headed to the Campbells as …
Another 14 hour day. I’m not the only one. It’s the world of community theatre, we volunteer our lives for art. And as a tech person, for other people’s glory. But tonight I am tired. Apparently this has been a busy month as I only noticed this today I finally hung my picture, I committed …
I worked a crazy long, eat between keystrokes kind of day and was stressed but grateful when it was time to race home, feed George And get to the theatre for final dress rehearsal. as I went to turn off my scentsy light I decided to empty the wax so there was room For a …
Today was just a normal intense work day for me. I admired all the beautifying things in my garden before they are gone. After work I came home for a relax, watched Ellen while eating some shrimp. Don’t want to eat or drink too much before heading to the show got myself to the theatre …
This morning came with weird weather, on the edge of a storm. I did laundry and lounged awaiting time to go to the cue to cue rehearsal at the theatre. I have mixed feelings about it because I’m excited to be a part of theater again and also worried about the sound part of it …
