Waking up for the second time today. The first was spent in crazy traffic and government office lines. This is much more pleasant. Rolling over and squishing the kitty, pulling the cover around me, my husband's music filtering into the room, a cup of cold coffee...
I spent the weekend surrounded by pets, kids, family, and nature. It was very complete. I took my violin. Yesterday I recorded myself practicing, which was fun because my husband figured out why my mic has been receiving a lot of static and background hiss since we moved. Had to do with the massive clump of chords from stuff wrapped around the mic chord....it was colourful, but anyway.
Today I hope to get even more done.
My grandfather let me go through all of the photographs and take what I wanted. It was a nostalgic experience that took hours of sitting on the floor surrounded by pictures. I found some great ones of violin playing. I went through a stage where I liked to dress in um, "theme". Like, for school and all the time. So...playing the violin in cowboy hats and the like. Plus, I watch my violin technique change through time. And how much I remain the same. And then there were the pictures of other things. Like one time he gave us all harmonicas. So we are all sitting there playing our harmonica. There are six of us and I'm the oldest...I was about 13. It's the cutest thing.
Well. I'm going to go wash the sleepy gum out of my eyes and start my day. I can't wait!
Sals,
