Recovery day to let my old aching joints heal a little. I wasn't planning it that way, but it was too icy and cold (in the teens) for me this morning so I stayed in bed, and then I worked through lunch and didn't make it to the fitness center. After work my daughter has a dance performance at the Festival of Trees, and then I have band practice, so I won't be running tonight either. For the curious, band practice is for a band that is being put together for my church congregation's Christmas party in a few weeks. Most of us in this band were in band in high school or college and haven't played for a decade or two. I will be playing my old (1914) silver tenor saxophone, which I've now polished most of the tarnish off. Our first practice is tonight...should be interesting. |
