#bethelight – Day 304 and 305

Yesterday was a busy day with work and with teaching voice lessons.  A crazy schedule didn't stop me from stopping to listen when a friend needed a hug after getting bad news.  I didn't stop me from catching up with my best friend when she called to chat.  It didn't stop me from chatting with… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 304 and 305

#bethelight – Day 302 and 303

Wow!  Yesterday was a very long day.  I worked on the set for 9 hours.  When I got home, I was so hungry.  I didn't get a chance to eat lunch while I was working.  The trouble was, I didn't have something "quick" to eat.  My daughter and her family were at my house too. … Continue reading #bethelight – Day 302 and 303

Summer is Over, School is Here

Holy cow!  What a week!   This week marked the official beginning of school.  However, we started the week working at the school over the Labor Day weekend on the set for Mamma Mia.  Everyone still living at home went to the school for hours.

#bethelight – Day 300 and 301

I'm not sure how I missed posting about lighting the world yesterday.  Too much happening.  And I really should be in bed as I type this now.  Yesterday was the first day of school for freshmen.  Today was the first day of school for all students.  Yesterday and today I went the extra mile.  I… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 300 and 301

Designing Lighting for Savannah Sipping Society

I had the opportunity to design lighting for Savannah Sipping Society, which was a part of the 2018 season at Pentacle Theatre.  My friends, Jeff Witt and Dani Potter directed this delightful comedy with more sass than a glass of fine French wine (or so I'm told since I don't drink).  When I read the… Continue reading Designing Lighting for Savannah Sipping Society

Warrior Wednesday

It is a moment of crisis that your true character appears. Be honest. Anyone can be patient, understanding and cooperative when things are going well. A Warrior behaves with grace and compassion, kindness and understanding when times get tough. No matter how many times a Warrior is knocked down, they keep getting up and trying… Continue reading

Starting the School Year: Attitude Is the Difference

Tomorrow students head back to the classroom in my town.  This little saying popped into my head as i thought about how to help my own student create a successful year for herself. Why not make school your next great adventure? Maybe you have heard this saying before: Your attitude determines your altitude. Your attitude… Continue reading Starting the School Year: Attitude Is the Difference

#bethelight – Day 299

I have a fun idea.  Next time you fill a punch card at business you frequent, hand it to the person behind you.  Surprise them with a free drink, sandwich, yogurt, or whatever.  sounds like a fun way to make someone smile... easy too!

#bethelight – Day 298

I need to work harder at this kindness thing.  Today I got a little short with my husband as he was trying his best to help me with my big project at work.  I let myself get super frustrated.  We often have troubles understanding what the other person is saying and I let it get… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 298

Ending My Summer, but Keeping Plant Power!

Okay... I really need to make more time for food.  Today I had trouble finding the time to make and eat food.  So much to do and so little time to do it!  I am happy to report that I didn't cave and eat crappy food just because I was starving.  Last week was a… Continue reading Ending My Summer, but Keeping Plant Power!
