Solo

There was a time in my life when I considering pursuing a performance career. Just about everything surrounding a solo artist career appealed to me...traveling, up late, sleep late, sing, wear crazy things that people think are 'cool' just because YOU have it on (even though you look like a fool who can't dress herself!).

Time has changed a LOT of things for me.  Crystal was talking on Sunday night about how she used to not think anything about getting up on stage in front of an auditorium full of people and now she just wonders what was wrong with her. I have to agree that the same is true for me. I mean, I still like to stay up late (I am a night owl) and I like to sleep in (currently I would take 7AM rather than 5AM), I like to travel and I DO like to sing....some things just aren't the same.

I don't want to be gone 24-7 and not be able to remember where home is or what my bed looks like. I am quite fond of my bed! I still think it would be fun to set fashions trends, but that seems to be Ronnie's strength...he predicts that nylon wallets with velcro will be the new hip must have items for guys within 6 months because he just bought one!

So, I have to sing at this benefit tonight for my friend and fellow teacher, but I am just wanting to pick up the phone and insist that Kate and Crystal join me. I feel naked and very uncomfortable without them. It is like when you forget to put on your favorite necklace, or your watch. Something is just missing!

I listened to the videos on our church's website of the three of us and God totally rocks my face off! All of us are talented, but there is NO WAY we would sound like THAT without Him! Pray for me girls and if you don't have anything to do, come and join me at 6PM. My co-dependency beckons you....COME! :-)

I really wish I could but I have to work tonight! I will pray though. I have no doubt in my mind that God will use this benefit for something awesome for the community of Cairo! You will have to fill me in tomorrow at Wednesday night dinner.

Co-dependency is not a personality trait that I wish to encourage :)

I would, but I can't. There is a "family" birthday party tonight and I have already committed myself to being there. You'll be fine though. Remember: ceiling, floor.
