And a few notes from the Are-You-Kidding-Me section of my life:
1. Kid 1 has been going to a seriously awesome conference over the past 3 days at BYU for high school theatre kids, and she is in drama-queen heaven. In fact, I haven’t seen her much at all, and certainly not in daylight, and I’m missing her, because this is kinda what it’s going to be like when she moves out which day is very far away but steadily coming closer.
2. 10 days without sugar and white flour, and only one cheat. Yay, me! (And thanks to Kid 2 for sharing that shake with me.)
3. Did I mention that I’m in NUNSENSE in March? The musical comedy starring 5 nuns? Where they have to raise money to bury the last 4 nuns that died on that terrible day when Sister Julia, Child of God, poisoned everyone with her vichyssoise? And did I mention that I’m playing Sister Hubert, the novice leader? That’s it. The 38-year-old white Mormon mom of 4 is playing the Black Nun. Sell it, Sister!
4. Famous people are milling around our little town in the Frozen Mountaintops because of the Sundance Film Festival. And I stay inside altogether too often to run much of a risk of bumping into anyone.
5. Husband’s film project that I told you about a few weeks ago is going strong. Yesterday Mr. Vai Sikahema wrote an excellent article for the online Deseret News, and people are getting excited about jumping on board. Also, I want Mr. Vai Sikahema to move into our house. I grow fonder of him by the hour. What a gentle, lovely man. Also, a darn fine writer, which I’m not sure you can say for Every Single former NFL player.
6. I loved John Green’s The Fault in our Stars and read it all up in one day. I dream of the day when I’ll be so clever in sentence construction. Also, I may have a tiny fangirl crush. Is that even possible if I’m WAY older than he is? Can you still call it Fangirl?
7. I got a pulse-reader app for my phone, to help Kid 3 with her science fair project (yes, I still hate the science fair). It told me, on the day I first tried it, that my resting pulse rate was 53. Pretty normal. Then, the next day, because it’s fun, I measured again, still resting. 113. 113? 113. Huh. How science-y is that?

Way to go on sugar & white flour freeness! (How do you manage it as a bread-lover?)
We saw a nunsense musical at Christmas once. They’re fun and funny! I hope you have a great, great time!
So glad things are going well with the film project! Crossing all fingers and toes!
I have a fangirl crush on John Green, too. He says such beautiful things.

Becoming Sr. Hubert may be the thing from your huge range of discoveries and accomplishments that reflects most on me. What must we infer about Father of Hubert?

That is so great that you’re in NUNSENSE! Sounds like you have a really talented family! Good luck with rehearsals and everything–I know you have the heart of a black woman deep down!

Wow! So many good, good things, and I feel I should have something clever to say about every single one of them. But honestly, I’ve something clever to say about nun of them. Get it? NUN of them?
Ah, I kill me sometimes . . .

Just finally got my Kickstarter stuff together and did my thing. Sorry I spaced it for so long. I shall blog it soon.
Also, I have a SIGNED TFIOS waiting for me to get to. Yay!
