(not necessarily in that order)
I don’t want to celebrate too soon, but I think something might have shifted between me and the flute.
It’s not just that I’ve practiced three days in a row. It’s that it felt like real practicing — exceedingly brief, yes, but real.
On the second day I even did slow scales in all twelve major keys, through the entire range of the instrument. (I think I hadn’t played a high C in fifteen years!)
I’ve also felt like doing it, which at this point in my life is strange and unusual behavior. 😄
Yep, as of tomorrow we’ve only three days left before getting on a plane to fly back to the States.
That means it’s time for lists…many lists!
Lists of borrowed items to be returned; final purchases to be made; items to give away; things to remember at the last minute; decisions about what goes in which suitcase; comfort items for the flight; and so it goes.
We’ve been gone so long that I can barely remember how I packed originally, so it feels like being back to square one.
We’ve been in Sacramento since Wednesday — not quite three days — but it feels like forever.
One of our Village friends stopped by after a trip to the airport and I found myself wanting to ask him all the latest news. But how much news could there be in less than three days?!?
Pretty funny.
