I had my piano lesson at 4:45 p.m. I think the lesson went well and I now have a new song (Amazing Grace) to learn.
Afterwards, I chatted with neighbor T, took the trash cans to the curb, and chatted with my daughter. She sent me the drawing for today. She had sent me yesterday's drawing, too, but, I had already done my post by the time she sent it to me.
Day 18: Trap

| Day 18: Trap |
According to my daughter, in anime/manga, a trap is a boy who is mistaken for a girl (until it is revealed that he is a boy) and a reverse trap is girl who is mistaken for a boy.
Day 19: Dizzy

This is a pokemon named Spinda who is always spinning around.
In the evening, I watched some TV ("Dancing with the Stars") and chatted with friend R.
Today, I am grateful for:
- My cousin's daughter driving me to the eye appointment and back
- The eye appointment went well
- Afternoon naps
- The piano lesson went well
- Video chatting with my daughter
Today's joyful activity was napping in the afternoon.
I am afraid I didn't do a lot of the things on my to do list for today. They are all being carried over to tomorrow.
Tuesday's To Do List:
- Blood test in the morning
- Change bed sheets
- Load of laundry (bed sheets/towels)
- Dust living room & dining area
- Dust family room and my bedroom
- Water the garden, front and back
- Water the house plants
How was your Monday? What are your plans for Tuesday?
You are moving right along with your piano lessons. I'm impressed, but you seem to do most things well.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Live and Learn. I am still perfecting two pieces from earlier, working on the two pieces from last week, and, now, have the new piece from yesterday (learn only the right hand, this week). I find that I seem to require a minimum of 4 weeks to learn a new piece, but, some pieces take even longer!
DeleteThat's good news about your eyes. It always surprised me how long my eyes to to return to normal after dilation.
ReplyDeleteHow did The Entertainer go in your piano lesson? Amazing Grace is lovely to play - I hope you enjoy learning it.
Thank you, Eileen; yes, it seemed that, this time, it took longer to recover. Maybe I am getting old! :D
DeleteThe Entertainer went well. I surprised S because I had managed to play both hands together on my own (I found it was easier for me to keep count, that way). It's still painfully slow and labored playing, but, I hope to improve with practice. :)
I really do love seeing your daughter's drawing and seeing how she interpreted the prompt.
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a wonderful day!
Thank you, Anne. :) Hope you, too, have a good day, today.
DeleteMy Monday was great - I collected my new specs on Saturday and it really is noticeable how much more easily I can switch focus from far to near etc. I LOVE Amazing Grace, one of my favourites. I cannot play any instrument apart from the CD player.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad your new specs are working so well for you. :) Amazing Grace is a lovely hymn, isn't it? I think knowing how to play a CD player is pretty good! :D
DeleteI'm glad your eye examination went well and that everything was found to be OK. X
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jules. This was an appointment that was scheduled for March of this year, but, got postponed due to the virus! I'm glad I was able to get it taken care of!
