Yesterday was a long and awful work day.


I was at a health care facility that had an owner which went into bankruptcy. The state took over in receivership, but eventually decided to close it down - couldn't find a buyer. So they are desperately trying to find places for all the resident patients, and all the healthcare workers are losing their jobs.


I didn't have to tell the employees that they were losing their jobs, thankfully, but I was trying to help them sort out their health insurance options. It was very grim. And stressful.

It sounds difficult.  Are you done there or do you need to return?

Terrible DR SINGDAW!  I am sure you were a great help to them in their time of need.....they certainly have many more options than they used to.

I agree DR TCB.  The only people excited about it are the people on the board who want to play parts in those shows......it is always thus.....

Thanks to all for the vibes for rehearsal last night.  Everyone did a good job....especially for begin gone for three days.

Sonora's blonde hair looks nice, and her mother had ALL of her costumes there...and they really are great.

Tonight is "family" night wherein families of cast members can come and take photos and see the show....a dress rehearsal.

INTO THE WOODS is not supposed to be in rehearsal center....they have been a pain in the neck during the last two weeks.....but we only have to deal with them twice more.....  I am sure they feel the same way.

I also bought some disinfectant air spray for the Men's Dressing Room so it won't smell like old tennis shoes.....and some BLACK socks for those cast members who need them.....I bought four pairs....which tells you something.

Tuesday morning greetings!  I had a 9am breakfast meeting with the AAUW fill-in treasurers at the home of one them, after which I did a little Target shopping.  Home now to catch up on my usual morning routine and stay out of the rain that's predicted.

What kind of a musician contingent do you employ for the musicals, DR Jrand64?  I'm wondering about 1776 in particular, which of course you may not know yet.  But generally, how many pieces, etc.?

I just took a sh load of books and scores (yes!  finally!  scores!) to the dropoff place so they can be included in the local library sale this fall.

This was the easiest and run-of-the-mill stuff to donate, mostly opera vocal scores that were going to continue taking up valuable space without EVER being looked at again.  Stuff that's easy to listen to and appreciate without following along.  There is, of course, a host of "good stuff" that I'll never part with.  But I need to lighten my burthen, and this helps immensely.  I have other music that's more unusual and expensive that I'm willing to let go, but it needs to go to some individual or organization who I KNOW will have the appreciation and use for it.  Not that that can ever be guaranteed, but I'll do what I can to get it to good homes.

I will wait to see how my recover comes along as I might want to take a trip to LA, but I want to make sure I will be able to fly those long hours.

My car is packed for my house-sitting gig.  Will stop at cleaner's on the way there.  Weather is supposed to be nice this week, so I'll really be enjoying the deck and view.

That's terrible! :( I can't imagine having to deal with that.  And hopefully, it all works out for the patients and the employees!!

Don't know yet. Nothing scheduled immediately. I am hoping I don't have to go back. Too depressing.

Today's title, "The Tired Notes," seems to be leaking some attitude onto today's posts.
