I have today and tomorrow off before a solid week of work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last Sunday the Plague of Players performed A Christmas Carol. It was an awesome production with everyone bringing their A game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Peter was the Ghost of Christmas Present. I made him a holly crown with lights in it and a green robe with white fur trim. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

My challenge was creating Ignorance and Want. I decided to create rod puppets. My idea was to make ghostly versions of the characters. The bonus was that with the background they would appear and disappear given them a more ethereal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(For the VI: These are two rod puppets with Caroline holding them up. On the left is Ignorance with a light blue face and wild grey hair. He is wearing a black tunic and a dirty grey vest. On the right is Want. She has a light blue face and long blond hair. She is wearing a dress that looks very distressed and dirty.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am very proud of these and it gives me an idea for more of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The bonus is that we can wear holiday hats at work. I plan on wearing the holly crown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am working on two projects that will be presents for people this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I like that my creative brain is in overdrive again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I also have a project that came out of something I was going to do for Anime NYC. I can use it for so many other things as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our circulation pump in our heating system gave up the ghost. We had it replaced and the house is feeling warm again all through the house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s nice to not have to bundle up. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today Caroline and I are going to have a Mommy\/Daughter day after she gets her schoolwork done. I love spending time with her and want to spend as much as I can before she goes off to college.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am grateful for heat all through the house.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
