My soup-coolers at rest. LOL
1. Resting my voice. Even though I still talked to my family, etc. my voice got a good rest… especially today. I don’t think I’ve talked a total of 10 minutes today. My voice should be stellar tomorrow.
2. My emotional health. I’m not what the AMA would call the poster child of emotional well-being, but I appreciate that my head is on straight enough to know when something in my life needs tweaking. That and having the ability to set my ego aside to listen to my loved ones when they notice I’m overworked or distraught.
3. Public Television. I’ve learned so very much throughout the course of my life, but especially as of late. I’ve learned about the Mexican Braceros, which consequently was never taught in any of the schools I went to – and I went to some good ones! I’ve learned there are Afro-Peruvians thru a dancer who lived and studied around Peru for a year. Those are the two that stick out but I’ve learned so much more.
4. Unexpected praise out of the clear blue sky. After not talking most of the day, I now have a lump in my throat, attempting to hold back a torrent of happy tears. Brandon is an amazing writer. His writing really touches me. Even though it is genre fiction, his ability to connect emotion to the fantastic is astounding.
5. Being too flummoxed and overwhelmed to go on…
