Sunday morning greetings!  I'd planned to stay home all day today doing Christmas prep, but Rebecca has an extra ticket for a holiday concert and offered it to me.  It's at the Fitton Center in Hamilton, where DR Elmore gave his Sondheim lecture a couple of years ago.  The featured vocalist is Nancy James, whose name might be familiar to DRs Elmore and JRand.

We made our patrol.  Annabelle's sounding congested, so there may be a vet visit in her near future.

DR Elmore, I'll wait to see if DR JRand knows who Nancy James is before telling you about her...

Ugly...

But I’m dressed and almost ready to leave.  By skipping church today I was able to get the piano decorated with our Advent wreath and my angel collection, while listening to the Cincinnati Pops play Christmas music.

And that helps.

This morning at 7:30, Nick and I discussed the pros and cons of getting out of bed.  We both promptly fell back to sleep until 8:30.

In that extra hour, I had a very depressing dream, which left me feeling out of sorts and rather down.

Either that, or I am just down because I have a matinee today.

A very unusual attitude leading up to a performance.

I'm up, I'm up - six hours of sleep - finished the final set of liner notes, the blurbs, and my work is done - all before going to bed.

DR GINNY of course I know Nancy James.....but I think she's older than either of us....but if she's still singing - good for her.....she always could get off a zinger or two when her co-host would shut his big mouth.....

We were overheard by our retired Pastor who is now a member of the congregation and got hugs from he and his wife

I am on the run today. I was up at the crack o' dawn to drive up past Poughkeepsie to play a church service, substituting for a friend. Now I'm home for a bit, but before too long I'll have to head out to the wake for our deceased buddy. And then I'm off again this evening to the same church to hear the first of their two (or is it three?) Christmas concerts.
