It’s been a long week. My brain was pretty much mush today. I tried to rehearse my show in tiny bite sized pieces in between work emails the best I could. I ran my lines while washing the dishes and doing laundry, but I was mentally fried. And tomorrow I have my solo performance class where I think I will run the first 18 minutes of the show and then rehearse the rest of it at home while hunkering down and hibernating for my Sunday morning call time. Yikes. Theatre in the morning. I hope my adrenaline kicks in.
After work I needed to decompress, so I headed over to the Redwood Heights neighborhood to search for a geocache or two.
FOUND IT
The one on the left was hanging on a high branch in a tree. I could barely reach it but was successful in the end. It’s amazing what we can do if we set our minds on something. I know I need to be that disciplined in other areas of my life. Geocaching is very symbolic and at the same time practical- it shows me what I am capable of.
And then afterwards I went by a local restaurant and treated myself to a meal. All in a days work.
I’m wiped. Good night.
