Focusing On Things I Can Do During This Pandemic
I have done some serious yard work this week. The new grass seed is growing. The yard work in the front is about finished! I trimmed everything and swept every brick lol.
Yesterday I saw online that my favorite idol has had to cancel all of his 2021 concert/ tour dates. I was so hoping that maybe this next year I would finally get to meet Roger Hodgson! I have been hoping to for so many years! Of course, I wonder if he may end up retiring? I don’t know if he will ever want to tour after being away for what will be 2 years by 2022. Awwwww darn! I won’t give up hope but the likelihood is not looking favorable through a meet and greet… Darn darn darn!!! “Don’t Leave Me Now” Roger!
It’s amazing what you can accomplish when you have a lot of angst and things to think through. This pandemic just keeps going and surging and making life difficult for all of us! It’s definitely taking a mental toll. My days are filled with projects, this was today’s. Projects to keep reminding me of what I can do rather than the things I have no control over. Projects to keep my hands busy rather than longing for an opportunity to play my keyboard. The house is taken over by a home office/ work. I have to keep the house quiet. Omg it’s driving me crazy tip toeing around here. Ugh. “Calgon take me away”!
*I also have not given up on playing music either. I still have songs to cover and to write! Here was fun moment I had just last year with Amelia! She was such a good sport!
My Cover of “House”, written by Sir Elton John 
This is a song I chose to cover a few days ago. The song reminds me of fall and of Thanksgiving. I love this old Gordon Lightfoot treasure. I always smile because I’m not very confident of my French Canadian translation here. I’m hoping that I’m close enough to do the song justice?
Nous Vivons Ensemble – We Live Together written by (my cover) Gordon Lightfoot
I hope that you are enjoying fall and getting ready for Thanksgiving. I will be cooking a feast. It will be low key this year. I am however going to enjoy the traditions and recipes that I have made for my family for years. Stuffing, cranberry jello salad, mashed potatoes and gravy, broccoli-cauliflower casserole, yams, turkey, rolls and of course homemade pies!
