Semi- Normal
Life is getting back to normal....almost. The Musical closed last night. It was very good. Hayden did an excellent job, so did Jenna. As for the Production staff I think this was one of the better shows. Angela did a bang up job as Director and Producer. The Dancing was great thanks to Mom- Sheri, Melinda, Megan and Aaron.....I guess that gene didn't find me. I had a tone of compliments about the costume design....so I guess over all it was a great show....now on to the next one.
The painting is done in Nelson's new room.....but it now needs to be furnished. Gary and I went out looking to buy this afternoon......and we were successful! Now for the put together part. We still need a mattress and a few other things done before next Tuesday, but it will happen. Yes I said Tuesday. I want it all ready by Tuesday so don't have to worry about it on Wednesday.....the excitement is getting crazy!!!
I am extremely busy for the rest of this week, but then what is new. I am glad to be busy on one hand, on the other I wish I had time to do a bit more.......oh, well, life is what it is.

All in the Family
What a crazy week/weekend. They say if you higher one of us you get us all. That was true with Creative Arts Academy production of High School Musical.
Creative Arts has hired my mom Sheri and daughter Megan to run their Musical Theatre Dept. They in turn hired my niece Rachel to help them with their large classes. They all do a fabulous job. Probably because they are passionate about musical theatre, and want their students to to learn to love it as well.
This year they produced, directed and choreographed two full musicals. The Jungle Book, with 20 kids ages 6 to 9, and High School Musical with 48 kids. The average age being 11 years old.
As I said, you hire one you get all. In the Call family we have decided that we will attend and help with each others projects, period. So, the production of High School Musical had the whole family helping out Megan, Mom, Rachel, Hayden and Jenna another niece (all but Nelson who is in NZ, but he would have and has been right in there in the past.); performing, costumes, set up, tear down, programs, lighting, moral, critique, moral support, etc..... And this kind of family support and help doesn't just stop with the Call family, there was support and help from my brother and his family, my sisters and my dad. All jumping to help out when and where they could.
What a great family I come from and have! It is nice to know that you can ask, and sometimes don't even have to ask for help and your family will be there to back you, good times and bad.
Today at the Call home we are in a worn out stupor. We gave it our all to help out Megan and the show. Tomorrow we will look towards our next family project. From theatre to football, yard work to doctor runs, the Call family does it together.

Sew, Sew, Sew
Just because I know how to sew doesn't mean I want to sew....I especially don't want to mend and fix and alter....not fun, not fun at all.
I am fixing Cheerleader Uniforms for HSM....why? We all know that cheerleader uniforms are small and tight, but these are ridiculous, where they are too small is not around the waist or bust, but the Arms Eye. It is too small and tight....these poor girls are having their circulation cut off at the pit. They are so tight that they are very difficult to even get off. Cutting a new arms eye is not a possibility because we need it done now! So, for now so I am letting them out by releasing about an inch from the side seems, in the under arm...not a perfect fix but a fix none the less....I bet we still hear complaints from the whiners.....who knew you could sing "fat man in a little coat" to cheerleader types?
I am also altering my own clothes...I don't want to complain because it is really great, but I have to take in all of my clothing. The big problem is I don't feel comfortable taking in some of the clothing because of the design, or fabric....what if I ruin it? Yikes....but why should that matter, if it is ruined or too big either way I still can't wear it....Taking in darts and tucks are one thing but when an item needs re-cutting I should just stop...... I will just have to figure this one out. Now if I were sewing something for ME, from scratch, that would be different. I love to create and to make from the flat fabric a movable creation that looks fab.....I'm dreaming of a yellow summer, flowy, dress.................

Monday-------
Well, I didn't exactly get all my weekend projects done, but I did have a nice productive weekend.
This is a crazy week. We have High School Musical playing this weekend May 22 & 23. If we were just attending or just a single performance that would be one thing, but we are not.....no the Call family is totally involved in this project. Hayden is playing the part of Ryan. He does a great job. Megan is the head director choreographer, property mistress, costume designer, set and lighting person, etc.... Which means that the whole family is helping out. When you get one Call you usually get us all.
As I said, this is a crazy week. We have rehearsals every night and we also have to figure out how to fit in Book Club, Scripture Group, Institute and working at the theatre......ah life!?!?!?!
Went to the Doctors today. Just to check up on things. He can't believe how well I am doing with the diet and exercise...Yeah for me. Everything looks good health wise. He did however caution me to drink a lot more water. I have a tendency to dehydrate extremal fast.....
Besides the regular stuff and the musical this week I also have to write a script for the Girls Camp Skit. It is to be based on Happy Birthday To You by Dr. Seuss.....not every Dr. Seuss book is good. I have to get a flyer made for the Memorial Day flag ceremony and presentation at our Church, and I have to get the plans finalized for our ward Family Picnic that is 3 weeks away....how can you have 100 or so people all participate in a baseball game? If anyone has any ideas, I am open to your suggestions.
Life in the fast lane.
