I forgot to post this some time ago...
South End Patch Article
While a formal dance company update will follow at some point, we had a very successful performance at Boston Center for the Arts (Movement at the Mills), and I wanted to share this article.

woes of construction...
Ok, as a preface, I love being a homeowner. I have lots of space, there is a fenced in yard for the dog, I am getting everything just the way I like it, and I am just enjoying it!
HOWEVER...
I, Hate. Dust...
and it's everywhere!!! Knock down one tiny wall and BAM your house is covered in it. Put up another wall and BAM there it is again. Don't even mention when you have to joint compound the new wall, and then sand the joint compound (bam?).
This last weekend was the worst, I left for an 8 hour rehearsal for the musical @ babson college, and I got back to the gutted remains of the walls and ceiling around my staircase, and grey nasty plaster dust coating everything. Even the dog. Cut to 2 days after, and I am still sweeping. Russell and I have probably both put in 3 hours apiece on controlling this dust, and it keeps blowing around and resettling...it is very stressful, and I hate feeling it on my hands and in my hair.
End dust rant.

Last chance...
First of all, this blog desperately needs a decent title. Suggestions? I have been completely striking out.
Also, this is definitely my self-imposed last chance at blogging. I am doing it mainly for myself (to work out ideas, share creative process, record things to look back on)... but if this is another failed attempt at journaling my life I'm going to quit for good. I swear.
Things that will be coming soon...
-Pictures of the new house, and the crazy process we are making in flipping it
-Dance company updates (www.Luminariumdance.org - it's really ALL i do these days, but I am ok with that)
-Ritalin-deprived ramblings
-Proud puppy-parent bragging
... and that's all I can think of. Now it is time to find out who else I can follow (without making myself late for work, it's a challenge)!!
