MAKE IT A GREAT DAY: Memorial Day, Monday

My weekend moved too quickly, and I wish I could grab it all over again.

Saturday was one setback after another, but it finally pulled together by 4 PM when Laura pulled into my driveway to take Mama Kay and me back to her home for a Chinese dinner she had made. And she made a sugar-free white cake with icing and decorated it with blueberries and strawberries. Delicious!

After dinner, we retreated to the front room to chat for several hours. It was such a nice respite from frustrations with deliveries, aging and ill pooches, and the continual stress of body issues.

Early Sunday morning we were greeted with the thunderstorms we were promised. The morning was blotches of rain showers and was cleared for a few hours, only to return by 3 PM.

Sunday afternoon and evening were filled with lessons from hardworking and dedicated students. I am so grateful for their commitment to studying voice and piano. Two students from Denver, Colorado are preparing to begin rehearsal for a fairly newly written musical, BETWEEEN THE LINES in which they have lead roles. Another student has been called back for an additional callback audition for the national tour of WICKED.

I’ve spent most of my day on the deck with the dogs lounging and playing. Chief has been much better, and Harrigan, although not out of the woods, has been eating and acting less lethargic.

It’s almost 4 PM and now on to the Monday lessons.

Make it a great day!
