Letters to Ben Cross (Number 63)
Dear Ben,
Hope you've been well. I know I haven't written in sometime. You know how it goes...everything's on and off.
A few major happenings have transpired over the last couple of weeks.
First, someone hit my car in the parking lot of the autobody shop I went to. All I wanted was an oil change. Of course the oil change turned in to new tires. That all turned into a huge dent and scratch on my right passenger door. At least the auto body shop is paying the deductible on my repairs but at the end of the day it's still on record for my insurance. Fortunately this is not going to result in an increase in my premium but it irritates me a bit. Having said all that, it could be so much worse.
That happened last Tuesday. The worst thing that happened last week was I was let go from my job. I won't get into details but suffice to say I am upset about the loss of income as I like having my own money. Don't we all? Fortunately I can still go to the dentist Friday and can go to career counselling tomorrow.
I kind of know what I want to go into but it will make me too little cash to make it worthwhile. Which is unfortunate but that's the way the ball bounces.
Had a bit of a set back today but what can a girl do? Go with the flow and hope everything turns out alright.
Had a show last weekend...we rocked it. I have to admit, I was a bit worried after rehearsal last Thursday. Even though I had lost my job earlier that day I went to the dress rehearsal. The show must go on after all. I was a little concerned about the event on Sat. But heck, I was worried about just about everything that day.
First rehearsal backstage on Sat. was concerning but I'll tell you, once we got on stage we ROCKED IT! I couldn't believe how well we did. Very pleased and I hope that our instructor was genuinely pleased.
I had a gentleman caller over as well...so it was a win win. I was hungover Saturday for sure :)
Watching Raiders of the Lost Ark for the 2nd time today...the first time I was distracted.
I got my severence and I have about 2 months leeway for rent and utilities...thank goodness I overpaid my utilities. A little less stress...a lot can happen in 2 months.
I'll keep you posted.
Gail
