Unfortunately, in the middle of it all, she has computer trouble, and isn’t able to be in touch much. Not what she needed at all. She does however know about all the wonderful supportive entries here, and says she is very grateful for all the support and prayers. She had a very hard week last week, but she is staying positive and optimistic, and hopes to be back here soon to talk to everyone.

yesterday, I was ust trying to find people to talk to for different articles and couldn’t get hold of anyone who had anything to say, very frustrating. Today though, I found a good source for one article and finished writing that, got hold of another guy to talk to for another article and did a long phone interview with him, and made arrangements for several other interviews later in the week. Very happy about that!
Nothing much gets done this evening, I’m going to the opera to see Andreas Scholl and Concerto Copenhagen in concert, very much looking forward to that! Then I’ll have to write a review, which is very scary because my editor also has tickets to this concert, and he has been living and breathing classical music for 50 years, so he really knows what he’s talking about. So I’m freaking out a bit about getting it all wrong and him thinking I’m a complete idiot. He actually stayed home from work today though, because he’s a bit sick and his son has the swine flu. Must admit I’m kind of hoping he’ll stay home from the concert too.
Either way, should be a great concert, and this is one which I asked to be allowed to go to and write from, and the editor said yes, quite happy about that initiative too!
- I finally managed to sit down and get some seriously boring paperwork done, that I should have done a while ago. I hate that stuff and procrastinate like crazy, but now it’s done.
- Paid some bills, also something I tend to procrastinate on.
- I did 15 minutes of relaxation exercises, which for me is quite excellent.
- Did some strength excercises
- Hid dog treats around the appartment, a very popular thing with the canine division of the curlychaos household.
- I’ve had no diet sof drinks at all today. I love them and tend to have quite a lot, since there are almost no calories. Lots of other nasty stuff though, so I’m trying to cut back.
- Now I’m off to practice some piano, take Cora out for her evening cat chasing session, and then a little time to relax before bed!
