In the Trenches—Day 12 Year 2: Refreshed!

Day 12 Year 2:  Not gonna lie, last night was dicey!  I had three moments where I was teetering on the edge of a meltdown.  What brought me back from the abyss?  The reminder that I need to save the drama for the screen!  I can’t waste my tears and freak outs in my real life.  Right?  There’s too much on the page.  So, I reeled it back in every time.

But this morning, I have woken up feeling refreshed!  I’ve got my to-do list primed and ready.  The day begins at SMILE where six pounds of hair will be waxed from my body at 8:30am.  From there, I’m going to Staples to buy some props and make some copies until Loehman’s and the mall open at 10am.  Then it’s back to wardrobe.  I am on a mission!  I will find the perfect power suit and everything on my list.

There’s more stuff on my list but I can’t remember what it is.  That’s why I made a to-do list!

Woo hoo!  Let’s kick some serious ass creating from what we have today!

Until tomorrow, create from what you have…to-do lists.
