So wow. This has been quite a doozey of a week, that is for sure! I have so much to say and report about it that I'm going to have to split this up. This post is probably going to be mostly update, and my next one will not! haha. I've been in tech and performance for Little Mermaid all week long, so my schedule has been pretty off... All CYT ALL THE TIME! haha. It's been quite the rollercoaster week.
Thursday was really hard for me. Our first shows went well, but after they were finished I felt myself just really start to crumble. I felt emotionally drained and overloaded at the same time, and I just didn't know how to handle it. My heart was in so much pain. It was probably a combination of little sleep and alot of change, but I was so miserable. I was talking with Jamie and I told him that I really just needed time with my music, God, and some positive friend influence. God provided for me in spades! After some time to recharge on my own on friday morning and afternoon, I headed to opening night. It went very well for only being our third show, and I was OVER THE MOON to see my friend Sam (...cheeseburger...) in the front row. Cast party set the tone for my weekend with free icecream and time with Jamie, my Cheeseyburger, & Alex Hallberg (who was very friendly? What? I know.) after the cast party. On Saturday I woke up with a huuuuuuge smile on my face knowing that I would get to see so many friends that I love/miss/value/allthree! In addition to time with my Hersheys and the cast, Sarah Portz, the Payauys', and Rachael came to our 2 o'clock show, and then I got to drive (and finally catch up!) with Rachel Whiteside to see McHenry's show. At Cinderella I got to see Matt, KAT (I may have cried..), KP, Janey, Tina, some of my favorite parents around, Brinnay, Alixx, Cliff, Nicole, Andrew, Alli, Mark, Kai, and NATALIE! All of those people! I love them all so dearly, and see most of them so rarely. It was so perfect. Not to mention Nat, Jamie, and I finally got our 3 Muskamigos time! I was so joyful when I got home, knowing that Sunday would only bring more friends and lovin'. This brings us to today. :) Worship at Christian Fellowship was so good today. And so needed for me. I love worship, because I feel like sometimes the songs bring forth prayer that I wouldn't have thought of otherwise. It opens the lines of my communication if you will. When I got to Huntley today for call, I could not wipe the smile off my face. I just couldn't. I loved my time with Natalie, Rachel, Shelby, Courtney, Jamie, Dustin, Andrew, Kai, Mark, and Megan after the show, and we even got our 3 Muskamigos REUNION! Twice in one weekend! haha. I feel so recharged. I am so blessed in friendship, even if my times seeing my Gems is rare, it's always worth the wait.
