Tuesday, bad rehearsal

     We had technical difficulties last night and the rehearsal was a mess.  It is hard to keep kids focused anyway but this was beyond my nightmares.  Then we had a parent send a nasty gram.  So I spent time talking new owner down off the wall. Poor darling.  By the way the kids didn't notice anything was wrong they just spent time messing around.  But running a big show is a learning curve and things will be fine, they just were not last night.

     I came home wiped out and had three more clients after 7:30.  The shop was busy yesterday with pick-ups and drop offs. I did not get as much done as I would have liked, I will blame it on Monday. Hopefully today I can get things a bit more organized.

     Just sent Hub's off to the dump with the crap from the garage.  We also have to return a carpet shampooer to one of D#2's old boyfriends.  I have given up them ever coming to get it and I really don't know how it ended up here. I thought it had been returned by daughter, but there it was behind some boards in the garage.  So I will run it over to the house later today.  I just want it gone! Funny how large things can hide out of sight.  Might be a dead body in the shed for all I know.

   I just checked on mom and asked her to make a double batch of her Swedish sour cream cookies.  I will help frost them with lemon icing and we can freeze them to take to the lake over Father's day weekend.  We also have a bunch of bananas that need made into bread.  I need to give her chores so she has something to do and feels useful.  Although I will have to be heavily involved.

     Mom misses my sister who has now been gone 6 days and will not return for another 6 days.  When she does get back she will have to play catch up at work so mom will still not get her attention.  I just need to keep her active and busy.  Lil Sis plays with mom and I do not, I am hoping that with the studio out of my hands I will eventually have more time in the evening to play.

Well the work is waiting so I am off......

Have a great and productive day!

  1. You made me snort water with the dead body! LOL That is the way I feel about our property - could be a dead body back there, especially since it was hunting grounds. I would love to have those treats! Y'all bake all the time!

    I hope letting go of the studio gives you time. You really, really need it!

  3. Be careful joking about finding dead bodies. My hubby and I did indeed find one some 20 years ago. One of the absolute worst experiences of my life.

    1. Yeah we had that experience, but it was the neighbors back yard. I don't think my neighbor ever recovered.

    2. I've often wondered about the family of the girl we found. Cannot imagine being on that end of it.

  4. I may find dead broccoli instead of a body. I lost a big head of it when J cleaned the refrigerator. I cannot imagine having a body or a shampooer hiding. I am quite sure the production will come off smoothly. Rehearsals are for working out bugs, right? So, that is done in rehearsal. I think you should home bake and sell the goods when you are home all the time. At least, you might not consume so much.
