Well I did come back surprise surprise!! 

What a week! Daughter burned with hot oil, a week in hospital, me nursing her at home, wonderful to be needed by her again. 

I had the privilege of teaching my mother-in-law how to use her new computer and learn how to email, I have probably created a monster I will live to regret :).  And my mum is on her first ever trip to London by herself as Dad died last year, so big big thing for her to have confidence to do it.  My brothers will look after her tho.. three months holiday, what that would be like..... sighhhhh

I am looking forward to an uneventful week to catch up on my sleep....  keep singing like nobody can hear you

Singing differently now I am 40

Well 40 something :)....I started singing earnestly when I was 15 because I fell madly in love with a man in an Army band and he said he would teach me to play guitar.... I bought my own guitar and discovered that the world of music was a deeply screwed up place but I wrote song after song after song of broken hearts and maudlin stories that I was far too young to have a clue about but we all know that the world is a terribly confusing place in our teens and tho he broke my heart by leaving without saying goodbye I have played and sung ever since..... my clothes have changed, my life has changed but my deep abiding love of singing has improved with age.. I may not have a five octave range anymore but I know how to sing with all my heart and soul.... I wonder if I will ever revisit this blog ever again.... Probably.. I have been inspired by the movie Julie and Julia which I have just watched for the second time and loved it even more... I may not want to cook in Paris but I do want to sing in Italy... Bonn Appetit
