In CT again, playing Florence Nighthgale to my mom, then off to a Sea Music Festival in Mystic, CT. I'm on my laptop, which is almost impossible to type on, but just wanted to say a few brief things.....
Lama- what an incredible essay!! I really enjoyed it, and appreciated the time and energy you put into it. Twin brother Mark- I am so, so very sorry to hear about your cat. :-( Kakki- Great review of the CPR concert! As always, every well written, and as always, I felt as if I were there! Thanks! Vince- Sorry to hear about your parishoners. They were so blessed to have you in their lives. Lindsay- I am so behind in mail, and see that your Oud question was already answered. I "almost" bought one last summer, but opted for the mandolin instead. Thankfully, one of my sons decided to take up the mandolin, because I was too busy to even start figuring it out! The Oud is a very cool instrument, and one of these days I am determined to get one a learn how to play it! To all the nurses and caregivers out there in JMDL land- you are thebest of the best. Each time I run down to CT to do my duty with my mom, I marvel at how WONDERFUL, caring, funny, and amazing each and every nurse has been. Thank you for choosing a difficult job that you probably rarely hear "thanks" in. Lastly, unfortunately there have been a few cancellations for Jonifest, thus I have a few rooms that have opened up. If anyone is interested in coming, or upgrading from camping/yurt or wants a single room, please let me know as soon as possible. That's it for now. Still catching up with posts., Hugs, Ashara
