It's play season, which, for me, is 6 out of the 9 months I teach. But I'm currently in the Heat of play season - we're in performance month. That means my life is a series of lists...
Things to buy:
Things to find:
Things to make:
Things to get in the costume box:
Things to paint:
Things to print:
Things to create:
and somewhere at the bottom,
Things to do:
But if it makes it to the Things to do: list that means I'm not sure if I should buy, find, make, paint, print, or create it...it just has to get done.
Tomorrow we learn the finale - the last big number - with all 150 kids involved...Singing, dancing, acting, and moving on the stage AT ONCE. So I've listened to the music about 1000 times and I can see it in my head, but I've learned over the years that what I see in my head is not always the same as what comes out on the stage. And with just me to choreograph this number, and teach each of the parts to the respective groups, it could be interesting.
So here it is, the night before, and what am I doing? Not dancing, not blocking, not even listening to the music; instead, I'm blogging and then going to take a bath with my love while I eat ice cream. And then, maybe, I'll have the strength for the rest.
