My orchestra played for a church service today, and that went well. As soon as the service was over I had to run to the Appleton Museum and play with Miss Rosa’s college kids for their concert. Both engagements went well, and I was out a total of 9 hours. I am so tired from running circles all day that I got home, took a bath, am writing this real quick, and am going to crash. Frank didn’t have to work this morning, so I left the man in bed when I left at 9:15 this morning.
When Frank and I re-arranged out room, he never got around to plugging in the DVD player. So after I’m done with practicing music and my chores, I’ve been reading a lot. I enjoy watching movies, but it gets a bit much after a while. So I’ve just been reading a lot instead. Reading is better anyway.
I usually write more, but I am so tired from today – it was draining to say the least. I would gladly do it again though.
Tomorrow is the last rehearsal for Handel’s Messiah, so when Frank leaves for work Monday afternoon, I’m going to have to get on the button and PRACTICE! There are a few spots here and there that could use some brushing up.

You are performing Handel's Messiah? Is it just for a Christmas performance or what? I've wanted to see that, but I don't know if any orchestra's perform it around here. I've looked around Christmas time, but with little success.
Yes, I am playing the 1st violin part for Handel's Messiah this year. It is usually performed at Christmas time here, and I am so happy to be a part of it this year. California is not big on orchestras, so you might not find one to perform Messiah. You'd have to contact the local orchestra and ask them to perform it next year.
