Not the Best Week, But Hanging In There

What a week!  I opened a show and I think I was home to sleep.  That was it.  Man!  It is hard to eat well when you never see a kitchen. For breakfast I had a smoothie.  One day I ate mixed veggies.  I was craving my mushroom, onion and spinach thing and didn't have… Continue reading Not the Best Week, But Hanging In There

Theatre Thursday

Herding Cats – Backstage with a Large Cast

As you sit down to enjoy your next live theatre performance you may have no idea how much coordination and activity goes on during the performance behind the scenes: rapid costume changes, set changes, lighting and sound cues, mic adjustments, and chaos.  Sometimes the "show" behind the stage is just as entertaining as the show… Continue reading Herding Cats – Backstage with a Large Cast

Family Friday

Another Opening, Another show

  The best way to describe the past week with the Boyack family this week is a mad dash to opening night of Lion King, Jr. at Central High school.  From finishing touches, to long rehearsals, to opening night and sell out houses, it has been a full week. First, the beginning of the week… Continue reading Another Opening, Another show

#bethelight – Day 120

Today my act of kindness is for myself.  Today I will rest. It's been some long weeks.   We could all use rest.  I believe that is why God created the Sabbath.  I will be writing some too.  But that is rest from my usual activities.  I've skipped a few days of writing because I have… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 120

#bethelight – Day 119

Wow!  Long day.  Two shows and a lunch with characters at school today.  Today I share nearly $120 worth of wraps/ace bandages.  I bought them so that I would have what I needed for my daughter's foot to be protected during the run of the play.  I ended up using nearly everything I bought on… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 119

#bethelight – Day 118

Today was a great day for service.  Helped a couple kids with hurt ankles.  Helped teach at school.  Helped kids get ready for our second show of Lion King Jr.  Helped a great friend celebrate his birthday.  Seriously.  It was a good day!

#bethelight – Day 118

For the past few months I have been sharing my knowledge and love of theatre with 63 cast members and 16 crew members.  Last night was opening night.  Last night I sat back and let them take the glory and the spotlight.  I am proud of these brave kids.  It was a great opening night.

#bethelight – Day 117

Today for my act of kindness and efforts to spread the light I want to encourage you to spread the light.  My awesome daughter and son-in-law are adopting a little boy with disabilities.  They want to give back to the facility and people who have cared for the little boy that they will be bringing… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 117

#bethelight – Day 116

I got home late yesterday and didn't get to report my efforts in kindness.  Yesterday I mailed a box of silliness to my missionary.  Missionary life can be hard and a bit lonely.  I just want her to remember how loved and supported she is.

It Can Be Done – Even on Busy Weeks

This week I drank a smoothie every morning... along with my apple cider and lemon juice water. I had a salad for lunch everyday.  The hours I keep are rough around the time I am trying to open a show.  Thankfully, there are pre-made salads in the veggie section of the store.  No chopping involved. … Continue reading It Can Be Done – Even on Busy Weeks
