One upcoming concert by Music of the Baroque has music by Purcell. I adore his "Music for a While" choral work. I had the music for it but who knows what box it's in. Sheet Music Plus has it for download though (for a fee, of course). Maybe I could ask my voice teacher to let me sing it when I need a break from Italian. (Which might be soon. My teacher picked a long song with lots of sixteenth notes and high Fs. I'm battling with it, and it's winning :)) Zara came by to check out the piano. We almost had a "kitty on the keys" piece.

I think that I need an accordion file to separate my voice, piano, and guitar music. Ordered.

The problem with practicing before I go to bed is that it gets me all energetic and buzzy. Oops.

Hmm. Andrea Bocelli will be singing in Saint Louis in October. Tickets are not cheap, but I'm sure that it would be a memorable concert.

The guitar instructor had the J&J COVID shot yesterday and is having side effects, so she canceled class. Oh well. I can nap then.

My mom called and told me to call my aunt to wish her well tomorrow for her surgery. She said, "After all, you'd call me." I had to bite my tongue to keep from saying, "But I like you." Yes, I'll call later.

I found some really nifty cruises by Windstar. Expensive though because it's a small ship. But a Greek islands cruise is on my bucket list. And they also have a cruise around the Tahitian islands. That would be awesome. Hmm, I found a Greek Islands cruise by another carrier for around $1300 single occupancy. That doesn't include airfare and shore excursions, but it's in the realm of possibility. Airfare is around $800 booking separately.

Took a nap. Woke up with a sore throat. Then I called my aunt. She's anxious to get the hip surgery over with.

I'm trying to figure out the rest of the day. Walmart is open until 11PM. I need to get the garbage out, although the garbage people might have a holiday tomorrow. I need to practice and do math. And decluttering. And get to sleep at a decent hour.

Threw myself together. Got the garbage out. Ran to the store. Came back with food and garbage bags.

Need to get cracking on night-time tasks.

Logged on to check my work calendar and found a reminder to turn on a library's interlibrary loan service tonight. I'm thanking myself for the reminder.
