Bitter/Sweet

My friend, Marie, had a stroke over the weekend. She just turned 84. She was on medication for strokes but it made her sick and she stopped taking it awhile back. She’s back home now, but she’s not doing all that well. I know these things are part of life, but I feel bad she’s going through this. She doesn’t sound like herself when I talked to her.

I didn’t realize how sad I was about it until I tried recording vocals in the studio tonight. Things just weren’t coming together and we had to stop working on them. My producer, Robert Eibach, put some great drums down on “Carry Love With You” after that. He is really awesome and did what he could to make me feel better.

I guess I need to become a better actress so I can perform no matter what is going on in my life. Maybe I’m just raw from a combination of consecutive changes that have happened in the last 6 months. What’s funny about it is now I’m closer than I’ve ever been to achieving my real dreams in life. So now I get what bittersweet is about.

Blessings!
Laura
