Work

Frank had to go to work today from noon till eight or ten tonight. I guess I’ll try to practice for the concert on Saturday as I have a solo to play on the cello. I have the concert with my string orchestra on Saturday, then we play for the Sunday service at the church where we practice, then I play with the kids at the college that same afternoon. Since Frank has to work I really don’t have anything I’d rather be doing then practice my music anyway. And I will get my parts down perfectly if it kills me. Frank has his job, and I have mine. Much as it breaks my heart to have to spend the afternoon we usually spend together a part, there is nothing I can do about it. I will bury myself in my music as I have always done and hope the next 10 hours go by quickly.

I really need to practice Handel’s Messiah as the next rehearsal is the 3rd of December. I have the next 6 or 7 hours to practice, and if truth be told I really don’t have the heart to do anything else.
