Fabulous daydream life

Day 259 of practice.

Do you ever daydream about a life where you have no obligations and can spend all of your time on creative pursuits? I know I have it easier than most because I don't have a dayjob or kids, but sometimes it gets so annoying to feel like I'm going to have most of the day wide open for dance and yoga and jewelry and costuming, and to instead spend it running errands and cleaning the house.

Well, at least I got a lot of cleaning done today.

And I shimmied while I cleaned. And my zills turned up.

But I'm tired, and I didn't get to do yoga like I wanted to, and by the time we got back from our late dinner with a friend we hadn't seen in forever, I was too tired to do a dress rehearsal for tomorrow's performance, which means I have to do it tomorrow before I leave, and if something doesn't work I won't have much time to replace it with something that does work. I don't even want to think about everything I have to do before I leave tomorrow. Uuuugh.

Little practice

Day 161 of practice.

Ugh. I'm so tired of juggling so many things. I'm a dancer. Why can't my life revolve around dance? I got a lot done today but it was stuff like making jewelry and cleaning the house. I didn't have time to practice until now, and all I did was run my solo really quickly. I guess I'll work on some isolations while I do more housework before bed.

At least some of what I did today was dance-related... I repaired my dance shoe that keeps breaking, and made myself a new bindi, and looked up directions on how to get to the hafla tomorrow, and got some opinions on a dance name, and even found a new song that I want to perform to. I just didn't get to actually dance much.
