Austin Addiction: Blues on the Green

18 Jul Austin Addiction: Blues on the Green 2012

Posted at 19:26h in Life by Deborah Main 0 Comments

The Pillow Goddess is featuring a new weekly blog called ‘Austin Addiction’. Every Wednesday read up on the hottest things to do around this amazing city. Maybe we will even see you at some of these awesome events and places!

Summer is here, so it’s time to celebrate by attending free concerts in Zilker Park every other Wednesday! Thousands of Austinites are attracted to these shows because of the awesome music, food and art vendors and of course the cheap price tag. The shows start at 7:30 pm and all ages are welcome as well as your pets (I even saw some people with their cats!). Bring food and drinks, especially plenty of water since it is summertime in Austin. You can always cool off at Barton Springs Pool if you need to. This concert series started on May 30^th and continues until August 8^th, so make sure you make it to the next one before the summer is over.

Blues on the Green has become one of Austin’s great music traditions since 1991. Amazing musicians from Austin and its surrounding areas have performed on that stage, including Jimmie Vaughan and the Los Lonely Boys. You can find more information regarding Blues on the Green here.This summer’s lineup is:

May 30: Charlie Mars with Max Gomez
June 13: Rhett Miller with Wheeler Brothers
June 27: Ben Kweller with Amy Cook
July 11: BoDeans with Sahara Smith
July 25: Marcia Ball with Nakia
August 8: Quiet Company with The Eastern Sea and Wild Child

This awesome lineup has attracted young and old crowds from all over Austin. So, put together a picnic, grab a blanket and head over to Zilker Park this summer to enjoy amazing FREE music. XO PG

Do you have an Invisible Disability?
.
This week is @invisibledisabilities Week taking place now through Oct 26th.
.
An invisible disability is simple - you can't see it! 👀
.
It includes chronic diseases and conditions that significantly impair normal daily activities. Like the disease I have, Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS).
.
This week I want to help bring awareness to friends and colleagues who may not know that I, and millions others, have an invisible disease. Cause we look normal on the outside. 🤗
.
Scroll through these photos to see what a bad day looks like and how lucky I am to have good days. (And how drab my bedroom was before I transformed it in the @oneroomchallenge 💙)
.
Also, see last Oct with friends @highpointmarket. This Oct I'm in a serious relapse after fun summer travels w/David in Italy 🇮🇹
.
What you don't see is that because of ME/CFS I lie in bed every day. Not to sleep, but to rest for hours, or work from bed, or recover from an activity, or a months long relapse.
.
My blood pressure drops when I sit or stand and brings a host of symptoms that I cannot control. The ONLY way to alleviate my symptoms is to rest. No reading. No music. No talking, etc.
.
The most important things to learn this week are -
.
▶️ Never make assumptions about anyone's abilities.
.
▶️ People with disabilities (visible or not) should never have to live with barriers or judgement.
.
▶️ Show grace, kindness, and understanding. (I've been blessed my family + friends, like you, do!)
.
▶️ Never judge anyone who uses a Handicap Sticker cause you can't see their disability.
.
I know some who follow me here have invisible disabilities too and most of my colleagues do not know I live with ME/CFS.
.
If you see someone struggling with a word cause of brain fog that day, or they need other help, remember they might have an invisible disability too.
.
See Stories for more people with invisible disabilities. Give them a ♥️. Believe and support them!
.
As always, thank you for your love and support. XO♥️
