It’s Friday. Good.
Chilly again but things should start improving.
Stay well.

So the first puzzle of the day is finding the daily thread....
Good morning. I'll miss the church service today but at 1:00 I'll have outdoor coffee with a friend. That should be enjoyable.
Have a good day.

Happy (?) Good Friday. As my mom says when things look bleak, "There's always a Third Day," referring to the events of Easter Sunday. I cannot imagine what things must have looked like to Jesus' followers on the first Good Friday.
Ramblings from a lapsed churchgoer, who nonetheless still believes very much.

Good good Friday morning.
23F-50F cloudy
Shop time this morning right after I get some breakfast.
Got half a fret job done yesterday which is pretty good. I will finish it up today. It's EVO wire, gold colored and a bit hard on tools but far outlasts standard wire and looks really good. Then a nut, tuners, pickguard, pickup and setup. One more Harmony under my belt. The best part is it's already sold.
No fish tonight.

Bonny and I are playing a show today at a Memory Care Facility. I didn’t realize I was booking a show on Good Friday when I was hired. I thought about pulling out as I am feeling guilty about playing such happy music on such a day. Scott reminded me of the joy that our music brings to those we share it with and how outside entertainment is most likely all some of those folks have to look forward to. I know he is correct. I will, however, take the money I make today and buy baby items for our Church’s donation box. That will make me feel better.
Bonny and I are on a roll. We are playing 23 senior facility shows in three months. I did a marketing blitz in January and it worked. We have been playing one-two shows per week. Several facilities have rehired us for Fall events. I am THRILLED. It is my desire to pull out of playing Beer Gardens in Milwaukee for a number of reasons. I am finding playing senior facilities so very very rewarding. I thoroughly enjoy not only playing our music but interacting with the residents before and after the show. Perhaps I am missing part of my former life as a therapist.
I wish everyone a very Blessed Easter.
Jan

"A measly 4 yesterday and now this? Should we be worried?"
I think everyone should be paralyzed with fear. But I notice that james didn't find this one a cinch, either.

Morning.
It is going to be another late planting season in the North. Early has already passed and I don't see how we can make middle unless everything breaks to perfect, so put your money on late. We got away with it last year, we shall see.
It's always something.

Just arrived in San Jose. Our connecting flight leaves for Kauai in 45 minutes, give or take. Hope I can catch some sleep on the plane, didn’t get much last night. Can’t wait to be in warmer weather.

On this day:
1724 Johann Sebastian Bach's "St John Passion" premieres on Good Friday at St. Nicholas Church in Leipzig, Electorate of Saxony (now Germany).
Gear costume!

Yesterday was 2.
Finishing off revisions my latest book today. It’ll go off to beta readers in a bit, and I’ll start outlining book 2 in the series while I’m waiting for them to get back to me. Feeling good about it.

We got away with it last year, we shall see. It's always something. Will you get your potatoes planted today? The weather is finally shaping up rather nicely around here, and us Iowans are looking forward to a very pleasant week coming up. |
