Too busy

Today is a good day...I actually slept well again, which is a great thing. I have been really sick lately. Thursday I just got to the point after being sick for a week, not sleeping for a week and my stomach hurting everytime I ate, to go to the doctor and find out what the heck is wrong with me. Well my doctor was very sweet, he listened and actually seemed genuinely concerned and was willing to help me get better. I had blood work done which hopefully might let me know what is wrong, and he gave me sleeping medication to make me sleep. I'll tell you this, I have never slept so well in my life. It is absolutely incredible! But I find out tomorrow about my blood tests. So I hope there is nothing wrong, but if there is, for it to be easy to treat.

The King and I is going really well. We have just finished blocking the entire play, so now it is time for us to get down to business. We have to have our lines, music, etc., etc., etc. (lol) memorized so that we can get all the movement and everything refined. It looks so good so far. But this 7-10 pm stuff is rough. But I am having a lot of fun. Last night we practiced the last scene in the play when the King dies and it was great, I actually almost cried.
My ownly predicament is getting my hair black. Being a blonde has it's advantages, but not when it comes to coloring my hair. I did that once and dyed it auburn and it came out like maroon, it took a year and a half to get it all out. I even died it platnum blonde to lighten it, and it only turned it orange. It didn't look half bad. I just had strawberry blonde hair for a while. lol. Well, the play is going to be great and I can't wait to get all the stuff done and for the performances. I'm glad I am going on vacation after the performances. I am going to need it because I will be completely exhausted. eeekkk. But thankfully, I don't have work the last week in july, so I will be able to sleep as much as I want after the performances and all during the day to rest for the next show. tee hee. Thank goodness for paid time off. :o)

My family is good, kimipeli is working hard as always and so are my parents. But I do miss them so much, I wish they were closer to me so that I could seem them more than once a year. But that is life, right?

I went down to Victoria during the weekend to see Zac's family. They were all happy to see me and expressed how much they missed me and how glad they were that I came down to visit. I guess it makes it easier for them, since Zac is gone and I am still here. They have one they can hold on to for now, but who knows how long that will last. It was great to see them, I got to see his grandparents and parents and just relaxed, watched movies, ate, and talked a great deal about future hopefuls.

Well gotta run...Later gators!

Rehearsal was great!

Rehearsal last night was so much fun. Red and I were just having a blast. Plus, us 'Wives' were assigned our children last night, which was completely adorable. My child is child #5, lol, and we all had a blast. lol.

This is us last night. But I have to tell you, when the kids were bowing to the King, all of us couldn't help but say, "Awwwwww". And can those kids ham it up, lol. They were great! I was very impressed.

more later....

Pretty Good Day

Today is a pretty good day. Got my presentation done, and tonight is the first rehearsal for "The King and I" in which I was cast as a wife. Which wife I do not know, but it should still be fun. I was actually surprised that I didn't get like the part I was going after, but there are a great deal of people that are soooooo much better than me and have done this sort of thing their entire lives. So yeah, I am extremely lucky to be even cast. LOL.

My best friend and I went out to eat last night to celebrate our casting and it is so funny, we went all out, appetizer, meal, and wine with dinner. It was great!!! We just laughed and had a great time...I miss doing that kind of thing with friends. But I am glad I went with her because we just talked about old stories and experiences. I had a blast. I am so thankful for her everyday and how God has blessed me with such a great friend. And if you are reading this right now, I will say one word to you..."SHMALTZ!!!!!!" LOL.

But I am so excited about being on stage and being in costume and everything. I can't wait to see what the costumes look like, they have to be absolutely FABULOUS! tee hee. We have started naming ourselves, like I am Wife #102. lol. Isn't that great?!?! Anyways, I thought it was funny.



Anyways, things are great, a little gloomy I guess. I miss Zac, I miss my family, and I miss that closeness that I had with Zac while he was here. I guess that is why I have been kind of sad lately. This sucks! Sometimes I think I should have moved with him while I had the chance, but then that would have been a bad move on my part. I'm not ready and I love my home and I love my job. I could not have asked for a better everything. God has blessed me in so many ways that I can't even put it all into words. Oh well...you live and you learn, right?
On with another day....
