I'm trying to find a life after Moody. I've been attending a Grief Support group run by UNC Hospice in Pittsboro. I'm not sure the exercises we do really help but I'm fully participating. The tennis has been really fun and I am improving with the clinic sessions. I have been substituting so have been playing about 3 times a week.
Our Pollyfonix group performed Yiddish and Jewish songs at the Havurah Dinner Tuesday night. We were well-received and it was fun. The Voices rehearsals are in full swing for the Faure Requiem and other "heavenly" songs. That concert will be July 13. Soon after that I have my summer progress to New England with Zoe and Zelda- it should be fun. I also had my first rehearsal with Irina to sing duets at various open mikes. We have a rehearsal Wednesday with the guitarist, Stan, and plan to go to an open mike that evening in Durham.
Tonight I went to a Swing Dance in Carrboro. There were lots of people there and a live jazz band. While no one asked me to dance, I asked several folks to dance and held my own. I left after about 2 hours.
Tomorrow is Sunday so I will go to Chapel in the Pines, then in the afternoon I have a Voices board meeting in Chapel Hill where we will discuss all the finance and budget stuff (using the report I prepared). Later in the afternoon I'm going to Pittsboro for a beginner fiddle jam session.
In the meantime, this week I had a nice dinner with Robert and Kathy P who were visiting the area. I also paid off my mortgage, met with a financial planner, had my knives sharpened, weeded the garden, and walked da girls multiple times every day. Robert said my calendar was extremely busy and he is correct. I imagine I have bit off more than I can chew. Thursday was Moody and my 32nd wedding anniversary. Seems like yesterday!
