It’s Sunday, the beginning of a new week so that means it’s time for a Bloggin’ Recap. A feature inspired by A Bookish Heart. Every Sunday I’ll get the chance to tell you what’s going on in my life, what I’ve posted for the week, what to expect in the upcoming week and posts I enjoyed from other bloggers.
In the Real World
It’s been pretty busy in the real world, as you probably guessed from my silence over the last couple of weeks. Work, school and my play have been keeping me running around to the point where I literally fall into my bed and am instantaneously asleep.
In case you don’t know already, I am directing a play called Bus Stop at my local community theater. It is my directing debut and my oh my have I had to jump through hoops. I’ve had to recast two characters, two LEADING characters but I’m still hanging in there. Actually, I’m really enjoying myself and know that the show is going to be great. It’s just so mentally tiring being the director and knowing the weight of the play is on your shoulders. (In my case, sunburned shoulders).
You may ask if I’ve abandoned my beloved hobby that is reading, but I have not! I may not get to read as often as I like but I am still reading and in fact am almost finished with The Stand by Stephen King. So expect a review soon!

Some great posts on here!
Yup, the blogging world is never a boring one!
thanks for highlighting my post! nice to see you posting again, I missed reading your daily musings 🙂 don’t work too hard and good luck with your play! 🙂
It was a great post! 🙂
Thanks, I missed this place too!
I was wondering where you had gone! I missed your lovely face on my dashboard 😀 Sorry to hear about all the bumps and bruises (and burns) of your directing – I’m sure it will all be worth it!
I missed being here too, thanks for the kind words! 🙂
Best of luck with your play! I am only costuming for my school’s musical and even that is stressful enough. I can’t imagine directing a whole play!
I am looking forward to reading about publishing ploys. I definitely think they are out there, so I am interested to see what you have to say about them.
That’s so cool that you are the costume designer, that takes a lot of thought! How fun, you’ll have to let me know how the play turns out.
I’m already working on the post about publishing ploys and the research I’m turning up is very interesting.
Haha, actually I am only one of the costumers, not actually in charge of that department. But, I will let you know how it goes. We are performing The Sound of Music.
Can’t wait!
The Sound of Music? That’s awesome, I wish you the best of luck with that! 🙂
I’m glad you’re back! I hope the play goes well!
Thank you, I appreciate that! I’ll let you know how it turns out!
Good luck with the play! I’m sure you’ll do a great job. Thanks for the mention!
Thank you I appreciate it! 🙂
I’ve missed reading your blog over the past couple of weeks but then again, I completely understand that life can get in the way. Nevertheless, I hope everything goes well in your directing adventure. Glad to have you back!
Thanks for including me in your wrap up.
Thanks, I’ve really missed blogging but life likes to make it difficult to do the things we love. Thanks for the kind words, it’s nice to know I was missed. A part of me was worried there would be no one waiting when I came back, but boy was I proved wrong. Thanks for reading!
Nice to see you back! I’ve been less than diligent about my blogging as well as of late … I blame boys. Well, one in particular 😉 Work too, but that’s not nearly as much fun. Thanks for the link to Greywalker! 😀
Thanks, it’s good to be back! Boys are always to blame. Always! 🙂 Thanks for reading!
I can definitely understand not fining time to blog. I am actually amazed at myself that I am finding time to post on a regular basis!
Anyway, I wish you all the luck with your play, and I would totally come and support you if I could 😀 I’m sure you’re dong a wonderful job, as you are so creative!
Thank you so much, I really appreciate that! It’s been so much fun but I have to admit there’s been a time or two where I felt like pulling my hair out! 🙂 Thanks for reading!
I’m sure it will all be worth it on opening night! I can’t imagine how awesome that will be for you 😀
That’s okay, Lindsey ^.^
Thanks Chiara! 🙂
