Life is crazy

Whew! I have been so busy lately that I sometimes wonder where I find the time to breathe. I have been busy at the Virginia Theater in Shelley with our current production of Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream. Thankfully, our last performance is tomorrow night. It is a bitter sweet ending as I always enjoy performing on stage and hate for it to be over, yet I am always extremely happy to return to a somewhat normal schedule with my family.

I have also been helping a friend of mine open a restaurant in Shelley. It is right next door to the theater and it is called Lazy D's. I will be cooking there on a fairly regular basis. I never knew how much work goes into the opening, managing, and maintaining a restaurant. I've cooked in several restaurants before but haven't been involved in any of the administrative aspects of it before.

Getting a second job to be able to better provide for my family is a win-lose situation. Win because I can bring home more money and make sure that my family has what they need. Lose because I miss out on a lot of my kids life and activities. Oh to be independantly wealthy.
