Happy Monday to you all. So what did I do at the weekend? Dusted corners I never knew existed, varnished doors that had been unvarnished for far too long! I sorted out my wardrobe…well some of it! I put some of my filing away; I mastered part of a level on my VR game! (Yes, really!) Watched quite a bit of TV, read and relaxed. And I can tell you I don’t normally do all that in a weekend.

So, here I am back at my desk…choirs emailed, zoom meetings scheduled, lost income recorded, but I have also sat in the garden and read a couple of chapters of my book. It’s quite strange taking things out of my diary, but its nice when work for 2021, 2022 and 2023 comes in! It will take a little while for all of this to settle, but it will settle and we will get back to normality! But, in all honesty, I don’t want to go back to normality….I want to remember the time we made for each other and ensure it continues. When we are back in rehearsal, I want the singers in each of my choirs to speak to members they haven’t spoken to before. We are all, at the moment, just a little more caring for each other, and for our family’s health and well-being….and I want that to continue.

I have always believed in allowing myself time to reflect; some might say we have too much time at present, but perhaps we don’t allow ourselves the time in the busy worlds we create? I will finish with the simple message Her Majesty The Queen gave last night ….”We will meet again”
