Sigh. That's not a good sign. Also not a good sign was the onset of spasms in the middle of the night, prompting me to gulp down a couple more Robax. They did the trick and I slept hard until the alarm woke me up at 9:25.
After brekkie, I tried various ways to access the mini-webcast, but gave up in frustrated blindness. I'll try again during the week when I have better sight. Instead I alternated between reading a book and lying in bed with pain (sigh, again). I also sent out a cancellation notice for the blind group. We've cancelled a lot of events for the next few weeks. Definitely not fun.
There was nothing to watch on TV. Last night's SNL was a repeat so I switched to the French music channel. I was enchanted to hear the Papageno aria and Papageno's and Papagena's charming duet from "The Magic Flute" sung in German. I'd hoped they were playing the entire opera, but it was a mixed bag, with "As Time Goes By" on classical guitar inserted between a couple of Mozart's Piano Concerti.
Didn't have much to eat today, so dinner was yesterday's cornbread heated up in the microwave then slathered in soft butter. And a Coke. Wow, such a feast. /sarcasm. I'm also considering ordering groceries to be delivered this week. I think that they are taking steps to prevent shortages. In any cases, I just need basics like organic juices ... and ice cream! Okay, back to beautiful music!
ETA: One sweet note on FB regarding church: two of my friends - a mom and her grown-up son who was one of my fave deacons - watched the service online together.
