Tried driving up Directors Hill in a snow storm. It is a challenge to attempt wiith 4 wheel drive but stubborn as I am I tried it with the minivan. I've lived to say it cannot be done. After sliding a good 15 feet backwards I ended up sideways in the driveway on a steep hill. All was not lost. I cut the wheel hard and stepped on the gas a few times; first in reverse, then drive. Somehow I ended up facing back down the hill and I was wise enough to go in the direction pointed out to me..thanks god! Finally a 4x4 brought me up the hill and I got to our first singing practice. CD's of our Holiday concert were passed out. I dropped mine off to Dad this a.m. He did not make it to the Christmas show. Music makes him cry. I hope it makes me cry when I'm old and fragile as a moths' wing. That passion exists in us right to the very end is what makes us human and real. Signing off with that thought.

It's snowing again this Tuesday. What is it about Tuesdays? It has snowed three Tuesdays in a row and I'm beginning to suspect a curse.. The Voices have yet to meet this year because of inclement weather. Our Spring Singing Sensation is going to be jeopardized if we don't get practicing soon. It's been the most challenging year of my life (saga to be continued)... If I could look out my window and see a butterfly in the snow; I believe I could regain all hope once again...I'll leave these pages with this thought... The Heart Sees What the Eyes Cannot...
