While I was here at work, I was able to watch the (paid) streaming of Bandstand.  I love this show!

I always laugh when I watch What's Up Doc? and hear Howard talk about his IDONEOUS rocks.

Next week, we're going to start learning music...virtually. :o That's going to be an adventure.  The show is supposed to run June 12-28, so there's plenty of time to learn things.  They're also going on the assumption that things will be better by then.  Hopefully they will!!

Have fun rehearsing.

Thanks, Jane!  I hope I will.

I do have access to work email. Apparently a special project I have two of my team on for the rest of the year has had spectacular success in its second month. First month had a lot of work but the results were spotty. Now I can show them off. I love it when that happens.

Congratulations!!

Ditto!  Congrats, John!

Went to Rite Aid - the ice cream counter is closed until further notice.  I ended up getting two packages of Klondike Bars - on sale - two for five bucks, and two bags of Jelly Belly jelly beans, tropical flavors.  I tried a few and hate them, I must say.  Don't like anything about them and thinking back on it I'm not sure I ever liked jelly beans.

Klondike Bars, on the other hand, are right up my proverbial alley.

And now, I'm leaving work.  I got 5 1/2 hours in, so that's good.  I'll come in earlier tomorrow and Friday.  I won't need to come in on Thursday.

Be back later.

We received a two month photo of Freyja today.  Oh, she has such a beautiful, joyous smile.  G_d I want to hold her.

Thank you, all. I still can't log back on to work, which is stressing me a little.

DR George, since you're already getting paid not to work do you get some sort of compensation for the hours you are working?

I liked in my minds eye very much, also the Lil’ Abner videos.  I also saw the first half of LA now and then before my IPad ran out of juice so I need to try again tomorrow.

Everyone is getting concerned that the credit will get tight and rates will go up so they all want to close on their loans before it’s too late

I must say, I'm fascinated by almost every woman classical composer I discover these days.  They're all so good.  Currently listening to the music of Henriette Bosmans, a Dutch composer who led quite a fascinating life - a renowned pianist who played with such renowned conductors as Pierre Monteux and Ernest Ansermet.  Born in 1895, died in 1952.  She had both male and female romantic relationships.  Anyway, I'm enjoying what I'm hearing but so far that's only one piece.
