I've been crazy busy. In the past 8 days I have attended 2 first read through rehearsals for 2 different productions: Lion King Jr (our next after school production) and Noises Off (our next class production).

#bethelight – Day 46
Yesterday was a wash. "Life" kept me moving and I struggle to get in the suggested activities. Perhaps today will be a more successful day.

#bethelight – Day 42
Yesterday I was so impressed with my nephew. He saw families sleeping on the sidewalk in 26 degree weather... a 3 year old hopping up and down to stay warm... and sprang into action!
