A sore throat kept me away from singing this afternoon, not wishing to share any germs, but I did make a lemon cake for tomorrow’s volunteers.
John Dryden has the right idea here, live each day for itself. It’s a skill I am trying hard to master.
I like checking Sandi Toskvig’s Almanac from time to time. Here is today’s entry and a link to the music Sandi suggests. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_1OJvqKNGg4

Dryden is spot on …. and you are right, not an easy skill at all.

I do try but I do let worries about things I can’t control get inside my head. đŸ™‚

Missed you at choir today, but really appreciate that you wanted to keep your sore throat to yourself. Take care, and hopefully see you next week.

Thank you. Good to hear from you and hope you all had a good sing. I really hope to be with you next week as it’s not good to miss friends or singing! xx
