This, of course, is a never ending goal, but I have made great inroads, becoming more familiar with our local public library than I ever thought possible. We’re also blessed with a wonderful (free) interlibrary loan program. If you are working on this goal and short on cash/stuck for a place to get the books you want to read, see if your library has an interlibrary loan program in place.
I’m not counting states I’ve simply traveled through or had a layover in.

Things have been fun here, and I’m finally settled enough and focused enough to truly post.
Morning Pages: frustratingly slow, but at least I’ve started them.
Artist’s Date: During tech week, I had plenty of time to myself, as I was the only one who hadn’t moved into the regular cast housing yet (we have rehearsal housing because the prior cast was still in the regular housing). So I had a lot of time! I focused on lots of healthy stretching and exercise. This week will probably include a trip to the Edison and Ford estates, which aren’t too far from the theater, which I’m looking forward to!
Book Exercises: Since I’ve done this before, I’m pushing myself to do each and every one, because I sloughed off here last time. And an idea for any Christians who may be tackling AW as well: use scriptures for affirmations!
Synchronicity: Nothing as of yet, but perhaps I’m still too overly focused to really see anything yet.
I’ve actually done AW a couple of times before, and am being led to work through it again, but know I want an extra kick in the backside that working through it with others will bring. I’m traveling to my summer gig, and read through the introductory stuff and Chapter 1 (A Sense of Safety) again, started the notebook by writing out and signing the contract. MPs are interesting to try to complete first thing, as I’ve had to get up and get on the road for the past 2 days, but things will improve. At least I’m working with blurts and affirmations again. I really need to do that every day – I’m good at beating myself up :-) I look forward to getting to know you all!
