[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 60477, member: 1991"] It does sound like a lovely relaxing family day. You're certainly getting a lot of reading done! Good luck with the piano - don't expect too much of yourself to begin with, this is going to take time. Keep to slower pieces without too many fast arpeggios. You may find some fingers weaker than others so chords will be tricky, but are probably the easiest to get back into. You WILL get there. Maybe "Moonlight" by Beethoven? We've had a quiet day at home. difficult child 3 & I were feeling a it unwell. I'm a meanie, I got difficult child 3 back to schoolwork again today. He's a bit behind with a couple of subjects, one of them we'd brought with us to New Zealand and I thought he'd done it there but it was a misunderstanding (not his fault at all). Today, he got it finished so I could put it in the post tonight. easy child 2/difficult child 2 had to drive to the mainland to collect BF2 after work, so I took the school envelope with us to drop it into the larger regional post centre, it should get to the school much faster now. Tomorrow I have to keep difficult child 3 working, also get difficult child 1 doing some labouring work in the garden, also chase up difficult child 1 & easy child 2/difficult child 2 as far as applying for more jobs. easy child 2/difficult child 2 has an audition opportunity on Wednesday, but she needs to email the people to get details. She wants to do it but is really bad at organising herself. And somewhere in there, I have to get on with working on the book publishing. Not sure if it's tonight or tomorrow night - an Aussie comedian/chat show host went to New York to film his show. There is a possibility you guys could be getting him more permanently from next year (you lucky people!). He's already been on Jay Leno once, is back on tomorrow your time (I think). His name is Rove McManus. True. Not a stage name, either. Watch for him - I hope you enjoy it. He's going through some life decision times at the moment, his wife Belinda died last year of cancer, she'd been fighting it for ten years or more. It was very hard on him and he just cancelled everything, for about six months. There is talk of him moving to New York permanently, taking his show there. He looks like a clean-cut teenager but has a mind like a steel trap. Keep your eyes peeled for Rove. Our loss will be your gain... Marg [/QUOTE]
