I am sitting in a book/craft/internet cafe in Port Hardy in NW BC. We're staying at a delightful place right on the water in Hardy's competitor Port McNeill. For the last 2 nights I've had a room to myself which is a treat on a TYA tour!
I stayed at some friends in Chemainus who have very cute twin girls. They told me that the girls said a prayer for me to, "be able to walk, like Rebecca" Rebecca has cerebral palsy. They are so sweet.
I guess it worked because the next day I walked out along the boardwalk outside my room. WALKED. On my walking cast. I didn't even realize I'd left the crutches in my room. Every day I feel stronger and stronger. I feel like I almost have full use of my leg now. Although when I see someone jump, or run, or play basketball like my co-workers do before each show, I realize I still have a ways to go.
In the shows, I referee. I introduce the show and bring out the players. I always explain my foot off the top. I crutch around and take part in most of the scenes. Arms Expert. Pillars. And I play a lot of kids.
We have 2 more shows tomorrow, nothing friday, a public show on Saturday night and a driving day on Sunday. I sleep so much. And I didn't bring my laptop. Trying to get a little work done in between, but mostly resting, stretching, and thinking.
Lots and lots of thinking.
