It's been hard....
...to try to keep up with my lovely blog. So last time I posted, I was still in AL and nearing the end of my school which meant lot's of testing. YUCK! Boy, am I happy to be done with that! Met some lovely people, but the whole classroom thing was a bit much for me. NCOA...Check!
After I graduated, Jas and I drove back home making a detour through Franklin (Nashville), TN to visit Aunt Janet and Uncle John which was lovely! They are the best and are always so warm and welcoming, we love staying with them. So we stayed overnight and left in the late afternoon on Easter. It was a lovely day. We went to a park near their house and fed the ducks and then went back and ate an awesome BBQ! YUM! Thanks Aunt Janet and Uncle John for a lovely stay. We'll definitely be back again soon.
So then I got back home and pretty much went right back to work. Rehearsals started and I had a birthday within the first few days of me being back. My birthday was awesome, and rehearsals went well. Then the weekend happened, then rehearsals again and then we went on the road....to Oklahoma. I'd never been there before. It was nice. We stayed in a Residence Inn in (Tulsa, or as I like to call it...Tulsee)...it was nice....like a little apartment. We then went on to OK City. I got to see an old friend that I hadn't seen in 10 YEARS! It was great. One of the 'highlights' was when a woman came up to me in boo-foo Oklahoma and thanked me for bringing some 'culture' to their town. I thought that was bold thank you but a good one. I just smiled and nodded.
Well I got back home on Wednesday evening, was off Thursday and worked half the day on Friday. Yesterday I went to the Cheesecake Factory (YUM) and watched Jas pack because he left today for NCOA :( So it's just me and the cats. I did get invited to a friends house for dinner tonight so i think I'll go so that I am not so bummed out....but really I just wanna sleep...zzzz.....zzzz
Sorry my post is not only 4 weeks late but also LAME! But I have been so busy that I can't really remember a whole lot of stuff...so hopefully my next one will not only be on time, but also BETTER!
But for now, I will leave you with this to think about...I don't know about you guys, but I often see people in the world and think...WOW I would never want t oanyting like that person, and thank goodness I don't have to be around that person. Isn't that sad? Doesn't everyone want to be a good person? Or to be better than you think you can be? I wonder if people just don't know how....Well I googled something about being a better person, and found these few statements here. Take with it what you will, or nothing at all...just a thought.
**How to become a better person**

*Think of other people.
*Don't act for selfish motives.
*Don't waste time seeking praise.
*Don't be jealous of others' success or happiness.
*Don't be attached to a negative frame of mind.
*SMILE!
*Be enthusiastic in what you do.
*Don't FORCE your opinions on other.
*Find Inner Peace.
*Listen to the promptings of the heart.
*Better to make mistakes than to sit idle.
*Don't complain (too much), make a difference.
What do you think can help someone be a better person?....
Thanks for stopping by....

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It is not just in some of us; it is in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."
