Old Age Day by Day November 2, 2011

We're in the midst of a wind storm.  It brought down a huge tree two houses up, but luckily, not on the houses.  We woke up to sawing and machines.  There are huge trees on our property and on both sides, so the wind is nervous-making.  But it's better than the horrendous snowstorm on the East Coast.

Tonight we go to see Lang Lang in concert.  It should be delightful.  We are still basking in the glow of Handel's Xerxes opera on Sunday.  It was sublime.  The voices, the acting, Susan Graham, the contratenor, the sets, the costumes.  I had my voice lesson yesterday and felt improved just from a little musicality rubbing off from opera.  Unfortunately, it may not last.  But for now, I'm singing part of The Magic Flute as I walk the dogs.  We all have our fantasies.

So, on to laundry and cleaning up debris in the yard - but I can whistle while I work!
