Found this blog post in the drafts! Never got published! Written on May 13… oops! Better late than never, right? Or totally out of context and boring? Oh well…
***************************************************
Just home and winding down from our “Over the Back Fence” radio show premiere! Take Note!, our singing group, performed three songs, and the whole thing was such a blast! We sounded great at sound-check and in the little room we practiced in and during the singalongs and during our songs. And there were many laughs at the expense of Norwegians everywhere! Tonight’s show paid tribute to both Cinco de Mayo and Syttende Mai. What a great little show. I must try to get there again – and for sure try to listen more faithfully. I naively thought it would be broadcast live but it is simply recorded live – played later. It was a great night leading into a great week of music ahead!
On the other hand, I haven’t been getting as much reading done! Book reading, anyway. I’m so far behind in my magazine reading but I’m feeling better about that, so I started reading “Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet” this week. I finally made some headway today. I am really liking it! I thought it would be all heavy and sad and ominous, but it isn’t. It’s about children. So I imagine there will be sadness and heartbreak ahead, but it doesn’t seem like it will tear my heart out, so that’s a good thing.
Well, as I said, a music-filled week ahead! Our big spring concert (with my solo!) coming up on Wednesday, Thursday a performance for a church family night, and Saturday we are performing at Minnesota City days! It’s been such a great spring with the choir. Can’t wait for the next adventure!
Well, off to read! Happy weekend all!
