Delayed reaction

Tuesday was long and intense, from early morning colonoscopy (with lingering aftereffects) to evening choir and ensemble rehearsals.

I felt like my normal self on Wednesday, but it was another long, non-stop, super busy day.

I guess that’s why today felt like a delayed reaction. It all seems to have caught up with me all at once, leaving me tired, lethargic, and achy in my gut.

One short rehearsal tonight, then off to bed early.

The marathon begins

Our Christmas music “marathon” is off to an early start this year.

It’s usually not until the second week of December starts that I have the sensation of drowning in non-stop details and events, but here we are — barely reaching the end of November — and the feeling is already very much with me.

True, we just had a wedding, which doesn’t usually happen between Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Of course, it was beautiful and inspiring. BUT…now that that’s done, it’s “all hands on deck” and “full speed ahead” to Christmas!
