It is Finished!

Well, it is finished. The Easter Musical Production, that is! It is over and it was great. We had a new Jesus (again) this year and he was excellent. He was the first Jesus that I have seen that smiled and actually laughed out loud. It made him, well.....human! Anyway, music, musicians, actors, tech crew, ushers, makeup people...all of them (us) were fabulous and the end result was a team effort that worked. Not thinking about next year yet but I am sure it will happen again!

Had my hair cut and coloured today. Left it long and more or less the same style. Can't really make up my mind what I want to do with it so best to just 'trim' it and leave it until I do know.

I spoke with a friend who has been suffering from celiac and a bunch of side effects to it who was going for another consultation on this past Tuesday. Have not heard what they decided. It is pretty much the last thing they can do for her. How would you 'feel' if you were in that state. I always wonder what a person actually thinks apart from what they tell others. They are talking about doing chemo (not because she has cancer) but rather to kill the parts that are causing problem and 'hopefully' the good parts will regenerate and recover. Does not sound like something I would want to go through but when your options are limited, well...I guess you go for it. Again friend, be thankful for whatever good health you now enjoy.

I was just musing about friends and family. It seems that so many of our friends have family that live in the same city and that they do the 'traditional' Easter meal with ham etc and family. We on the other hand do not have family here. Oh, we have nephews but they usually go to their spouses or their own families on the farm so we don't become part of their celebrations. I said that we needed to develop a new tradition for ourselves which perhaps includes another family or couple who are in much the same boat. I would like to host this for a change - rather than being the invitee (which I also love and have experienced a lot). I need to think about this more...the selfish part is that I do want to 'enjoy' the meal and afternoon as well so it would have to be someone I felt comfortable with and wanted to know better. Does that sound selfish? Maybe a bit but it's my party and I guess I will do what is most comfortable for me!

We are relaxing tonite after being out every night for the past week and so we are having a nice meal and a relaxing evening. Tomorrow we are off to Mayfield Dinner Theatre for Dial M for Murder. Should be a good evening with friends and good food.
