Spring is still in the air and in the blood. There is giddiness all around as students and staff suddenly run or hop on their bikes. The roads are clear and we all have dirt under our nails.
With this burst of energy, however, still comes fatigue and tiredness. We're productive, but still sleepy at the end of the day.
Which reminds me to go shower the white streaks out of my hair from the show and go to bed! Sigh. It's so late. --But I wish I could stay up late and watch North and South again by the BBC. So great! (Elizabeth Gaskell novel put to a miniseries... I can't get it out of my head!)
I at least had to post these shots of my beautiful children, rose-cheeked with "hotness" as Weston calls it, and full of new skills. They're like bears out of hibernation and are running, jumping and riding with more agility in their longer bodies after their winter nap.
They're eating more ferociously too! Bed time snacks of cereal!
'Course, Dave and I have to join in... only I snitch chocolate and roasted pecans!
This last crazy picture is of Lettice and Lovage. Yes, that's me in the wig and beard, which totally spoils one of the surprises of the play, but it also makes me laugh. You know how pre-show production photos go: wrong costume, cut the wig, etc. That makes me laugh, because I'm usually wearing my big black cloak (backwards) and my executioner's mask over all this, and Marie doesn't even wear this costume.
I should note that Morris took this picture, and Steve Waldschmidt designed the costumes and set.
Still, it's a funny show and my beard has never looked so good!
It plays until May 16 in Rosebud, Alberta in case anyone can come out our way.
We're here. We're surviving. And we're enjoying the spring, which has finally sprung a leak just in time for Easter.
