I spent all day organising theater magic! The kids did choose to do It's a Wonderful Life because they love me. So we had auditions and cast the roles, making sure everyone got one who wanted one. Some of the kids want to be backstage with me, which is good too. You don't have to be in the spotlight to create something great. We handed out scripts and did a read-through and it was fantastic.

I'm doing an overnight shift tonight. We tend to take it in turns and it's my night. I'm feeling a little on edge since getting a wee bit knifed, and some of the kids are worried about earthquakes (and some of the me is as well) but it should go okay. I'm reading the younger kids some Harry Potter tonight. They like it when I read to them because I do voices.

Oh, and Dewi, we would love to have you play piano for the show. Everyone got really excited because usually I do it and I told them my brother was a truly gifted musician. I've been ousted!

I'd better get some food in. I've got a long night ahead of me! Pray for no shaking!
