I had a grand time yesterday.
I had choir in the morning - walked from Billings down to First Ave, singing all the way, and then walked back afterwards.
Didn't get the solo in the Surexit Pastor Bonum (my voice has a really strong vibrato and, as such, does not blend very well with anyone else's), but I get to do a verse in Song for the Myra (not nearly as impressive, but still damn pretty - and I'll take damn pretty. ;-) so that's nice enough for me. Plus: I don't need to blend with anybody. Mwahahahaha! :-)
Picked up groceries, and mailed the CDs + Sheet Music down to my aunts in Ithaca.
Finished my t-shirt dress (it's a bit short - not by current clothing standards, maybe, but compared to what I normally wear? It could do with another two inches. Which I may or may not end up adding. :-) It's a drop-waist, pleated skirt, sleeveless thing with an asymmetrical neckline.
I'm thinking I may add some sort of buckle-like ornament to one of the, er... 'straps' isn't the right word... But you get the idea.
Basically a hacked-up version of those 1920s sailor-suit-based dresses (the kind that the CGIT middies were based onshe said, for the benefit of the one person reading this who knows what she's talking about minus the sleeves and the blue flappy-thing that says "sailor" very loudly). Gee, that was unhelpful, wasn't it? :-)
Spent the evening over at Ami_B's, eating chicken and berries and drinking wine (more than I should have, I suspect), and munching on CAKE! :-D Which was, after all, the purpose of the evening. :-)
Walked from the transit way to her place, too. :-) (Yay-yay-yay gorgeous weather!)
I think, in total, I walked about two hours yesterday, which was wonderful.
Sadly, while my feet are pretty much fine and dandy (and I love ankle socks - they mean I can wear my transitional shoes (still need new sandals) - without over-heating my legs. Life is good), my legs (particularly my calves) are quite tight today.
Which is a sad, sad commentary on my physical shape given that, five months ago, I was on my feet for more than that, pretty much every day, and doing fine (other than the joint problems).
Still. The summer is young (hell, it's not even born yet), and I can get more walking in during that time. :-)
In other news: I think it would be awesome (and convenient) to have something like this. :-D
Perhaps I shall have to go snooping around that second-hand bike shop on Gladstone avenue (eventually - currently getting the piano tuned and getting a new pair of sandals are much higher up on my priorities list than a trike). :-)
That said: There is a bike path that runs out near Walkley road (I pass it on the train every day), and I can't find a goddamn map that will show me where that path runs.
[ETA: In other news, my husband hath a blog. :-)]
