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!
#bethelight – Day 336, 337, and 338
Holy cow! Tech week is always a cray week. This has been a big project. I knew that it would be going to be. My act of kindness in the past few days has been working my tail off to make the tech day go smoothly and to make my director friend and the kids… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 336, 337, and 338
Theatre Helps a Person Discover Who They Are
Theatre has always been a place of self discovery for me. It has been a place where I could make sense of the world around me. Everyday I help out with the theatre program in my local school. Every day I see kids get out of their superficial cellular lives and start interacting with others,… Continue reading Theatre Helps a Person Discover Who They Are
#bethelight – Day 335
There are somethings that are hard to hear. I am wondering if it an act of kindness to quietly listen and take them in. Then, I also wonder about the phrase, "the wicked take the truth to be hard." Perhaps the real act of kindness is to take the things that are hard to hear… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 335
Warriors are Willing to Row
I came across this proverb and it rang true with me. I am learning that when something worthwhile is not coming easy for me, like most things, I can't panic. It's all part of the plan. In fact, I am learning that pretty much nothing comes easy. It is not meant to be easy. Most… Continue reading Warriors are Willing to Row
