getting there

wow! What an interesting week it was!

Did I ever get sick! I got 2.5 days out sick from work sick!

I am not surprised that I got sick, it just sucks. I thought that since I had gone past my "usual" "fall-time illness" week that I would miss it. Not such luck. It was just later. :(

Anyhoos - the headache is gone (finally) the gastrointestinal issues are gone, the sinuses are draining (but not totally done) and now, I'm on to the barking cough. :( As long as it doesn't last more than 3 days, I'll be fine for the next series of rehearsals. If it lasts 3 weeks like last year, I'm screwed!

Rehearsals...not so good today... we went through a full run-through and it wasn't so great for me. I was just way off... and I lost my speaking voice in the middle of it all :(

Ah well... I also lost my focus, confidence and memory... I could blame the meds, but I didn't actually take any today.

I went from the full run-through rehearsal for Chicago and went straight to Tracy's rehearsal tonight...well, with a stop at Tim Horton's along the way LOL!

It went well, but boy! do I have some practicing to do for that too!! :(

So, I've got to memorize lines, songs, entrances and exits for the show, and make rehearsals basically every night of the week (8 - 10pm to start) and each weekend day basically from now until show time. Not really sure when I'll have time to practice the music for Tracy's show, but I've got to get them a whole lot cleaner and faster, so I've got to figure out a gameplan soon!

On top of all this, tonight I honestly missed my hubby!!! I had to call when driving from rehearsal to rehearsal jus to say hello and see how things were going at home because I missed him.

We're not goign to have much time together the next 4 - 6 weeks, so I'm not sure this is a good start! LOL!!

At least he'll have some time to himself to do his own things - I tend to cramp his style in the evenings when I want all his time and attention when we're home together.
