Today's topic? Anxiety!

If training a new employee wasn't enough to put someone in a state of anxiety, I found out today that I have to be off-site the next two days when I had a schedule to complete for training.  To top it off, it was a scorcher today, up in the mid 80's, which is blistering for around here.  

The only thing to do was get pizza for dinner.  Sure, I had to turn on the oven for half an hour but I didn't really have to cook and clean up is a breeze!

I am preparing for directing my third show at our local community theatre.  I love the theatre.  The creativity.  The interesting people.  The long days and nights.  The praying your show is a hit.  I live for it.  

The prep I am doing is answering several Dramatic Structure and Main Questions about the play.  I admit I am struggling a bit.  I am not usually stymied by anything requiring I write about it so this has been very challenging.  But excellent.  An I am learning a great deal.  A very nice man and his wife are helping me via email.  They have been a part of our small theatre before but he is in the military and is out on the boat.  

Spending any kind of time helping me with this has been a dream.  I am not sure I could possibly do anything to repay them for their kindness in helping me.  

This show will be excellent.  I cannot wait to complete my assignments and really get to the meat of it.  Creating the schedule.  Casting the show.  

Ah...the wonder of theatre.  

Stay tuned....Later
