#bethelight – day 346, 347, and 348

phew!!! Ii made it to opening night.... and the biggest secret I've kept for awhile. My act of kindness over the past 3 days was prepping for my son to move home today and surprise his little sister at her opening night performance.  Her reaction made it all worth it!  I also would say my… Continue reading #bethelight – day 346, 347, and 348

Survived the Third Week of October

It's been a good week.  The week started with a work day... and night.  We started the process of painting rocks... lots and lots of rocks.  We also painted the trim.  Joy and Julie finished the backdrop and moved on to helping get the rocks done.  Jeff and I added finishing touches, like flowers, wall… Continue reading Survived the Third Week of October

Building a Taverna for Mamma Mia

For the last 6 weeks I have been working on the set for Mamma Mia at Central high School.  It has been a huge project. It all started this past summer when my husband, daughter and co-worker went to see Mamma Mia at Broadway Rose in Portland.  My co-work turned to me and said, "I… Continue reading Building a Taverna for Mamma Mia

#bethelight – Days 341, 342, 343, 344, and 345

My show opens on Wednesday.  Every waking moment is spent on getting the show ready.  I guess that is my act of kindness over the past couple of days.  However, I am not sure if it counts.  I'm just doing my job... even if most of it is a volunteer job.  It just isn't giving… Continue reading #bethelight – Days 341, 342, 343, 344, and 345

Be a Little Kinder

It has nearly been a year of me looking for ways I can be kinder.  I can't say I am actually a successfully kinder person.  However, the effort to be kinder than necessary is helping me to see others as God sees them.  That is something.

Struggling to Eat Healthy with a Busy Schedule

I started the week doing a decent job recording my meals via a photo.  Then.... it all fell apart.  Got too busy with getting the show ready for tech.  As tech neared I found it harder and harder to get meals, let alone, take a picture.  All I can say is, I did my best… Continue reading Struggling to Eat Healthy with a Busy Schedule

#bethelight – Day 339 and 340

Wow... with a week to go before the opening of Mamma Mia at my high school, I barely get time at home.  It is hard to blog.  It is hard sleep.  It's hard to get "real" food.  However, I am working my tail off to be patient and to help these hard working kids and… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 339 and 340

Keeping Busy!

The week has been extra busy this week.  Last weekend was packed!  Lilli went on a school field trip to Ashland to see two great Shakespeare shows.  She road the bus with a some of her friends.  They even watched a few episodes of The Office on the bus.  They stopped for lunch in Eugene. … Continue reading Keeping Busy!
