#bethelight – Day 258

Today I worked hard.  At the end of the day I realized I hadn't brought dinner for Lilli.  I found a moment to buy her some dinner.  She is a good kid and noticed I was struggling to get to the end of my day.  So she jumped in and started helping.  She carried boxes… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 258

#bethelight – Day 257

Hard work day.  Today I worked on solving problems at work in a calm and polite manner.  Let me tell you... it was work.  Only 4 more days of CET left... then my tired feet, ankles, knees, heart and brain can rest... and maybe my house can get some chores done too.

Struggling to Keep the Plants Healthy Plant Food

Snap!  It is hard to keep up good eating habits when I am NEVER home!  As a result I end up grabbing things I know are not the most helpful.  But I do what I can and sadly, feel frustrated that I don't have time for better choices. Monday I ate a lasagna I made… Continue reading Struggling to Keep the Plants Healthy Plant Food

#bethelight – Day 256

The best thing I did today was to write a letter to Hannah.  It took me all day, but I succeeded.  18 pages.  I should have titled it The Epistle of Mom.  LOL.  I hope she likes it.  It goes in the mail tomorrow.

#bethelight – Day 255

Long day... and still more to go.  My kind act of the day is to take my teenager to the movies at 10pm.  I'm tired, so it is a little bit of a sacrifice.  However, got to make memories where you can and while you can.  In some ways, we are all each other has. … Continue reading #bethelight – Day 255

Satisfaction Saturday

Satisfied with Lilli’s CET Experience

Today I am celebrating my youngest and the joy she has found in Children's Educational Theatre (CET).  I admit, it is a ton of work for me... but she is worth it!  Seven years ago I agreed to take on Technical Director for CET with the promise that my youngest would be able to participate. … Continue reading Satisfied with Lilli’s CET Experience

4 Weeks of CET down – One More to Go before the Summer Rush is over

Phew!  Summer is moving along so fast, yet, in the middle of the week it feels long.  This week has been so busy! Last Saturday, John, Lilli and I drove Bend for the Celebration of Life party for my Grandma White.  We met Kimber and Ray there.  They had fun "camping" on Grandma and Grandpa's… Continue reading 4 Weeks of CET down – One More to Go before the Summer Rush is over

Theatre Thursday

It is hard to recreate something you built before.  It never quite recreates with the same amazing look.  Although I like how the set for Lion King Jr at CET has come together, but the original set is a work I love!  Click here to read about that show and that set. The director for… Continue reading

#bethelight – Day 253 and 254

OMG!  The chaos has begun.  I am now in the longest 8 day week of my year.  Yesterday I swear I had a nervous break down... it was most likely pure exhaustion.  Through all the chaos, through every road block I hit, through every "fire" I put out, I tried to be kind.  However, the… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 253 and 254

#bethelight – Day 252

Today I took a few minutes and moved the water around my yard and pulled a few weeds in my garden.  Everyone should have a garden.  Grow a garden... even if it is only in a couple of pots on a balcony.  Fruits and veggies and herbs!  Think of all the yummy things you can… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 252
