I am thankful that I can do things for myself.
Our dishwasher has died. Repair man comes Monday, so till then, it's dishes by hand. Oh, well. It is a wonderful modern convenience but not a necessity. However, my roommate seems to think it's the end of the world. haha! We'll survive. ;)
Speaking of my roommate, Alexa had her recital last night. She was beautiful and sang very lovely. I, of course, played lady-in-waiting the whole evening for her while she freaked out about. The roles shall be reverse in a month's time when I give my recital. ;)
Sang in recital hour this morning. Oy. It was fine but certainly not one of my finest moments. Oh, well. $%&# happens. (I gave up swearing for lent...not sure if this is breaking the rules or not...I've already caught myself slip up a few times...I'm a work-in-progress...) Needless to say, it was the premiere of a new Mozart piece, one that you won't find in print anywhere. haha! Sometimes, you just have to let it go and laugh. Still disappointing, though.
Fencing is kicking my butt! I am definitely out of shape...and I hurt. A lot. Spending an hour in a plié position, walking that way forward and backwards, then adding lunges into the mix, all while thrusting a 2-lb. foil in the direction of attack...2-lbs isn't much, but after awhile, you start to feel it's affects. Thus, my thighs are screaming...it's been too long since my ballet days. But I got to play with my sword today! haha! "Play" probably isn't a good term to use in reference to a weapon...better to say "learning to maneuver my defense." ;)
Meryl Streep marathon tonight with my friend Haley. Meryl is like ultimate actress! Haley and I are fans...esp. after watching Julie & Julia. That movie is definitely in the mix tonight! :) Very sleepy, so hope I can summon enough alertness to make it through without falling asleep.
P.S. Happy Birthday, Mommy! :)
