I Can Read!
Think of me...think of me fondly when we've said goodbye. Remember me...once in a while, please promise me you'll try... Julia sings.
Oh - hi there. I got distracted singing my favorite songs from The Phantom of the Opera. This was my obsession starting at age 14. I've seen the musical twice and own both the highlights and full versions on CD and I own the movie. I also know the entire musical by heart. When I was in college I was a voice major for a time and my goal in life was to be Christine in Phantom. I think being an editor in Minneapolis and singing in my church choir is as far away from that goal as I can get. But that's okay. I have RobbieMax and Will, which is MUCH better.
What was I talking about? Oh yeah - reading. I started reading a book this evening and am 37 pages in and no headache! Hooray! I've been so worried that it was going to take a long time to be able to read again. Which would suck because as you all know, I read for a living. So being able to read 37 pages is a HUGE step.
The outing yesterday went well. We went to three furniture stores and even had dinner. And we ended up getting some furniture too! Tomorrow our new kitchen table and chairs and new chair and ottoman will be delivered. I can't wait! It will be so nice to have some new furniture in our house.
THEN, RobbieMax and I are heading out to the Mall of America to meet my mother-in-law and Will, who will already be there. We're going out to dinner and then seeing the movie, Lady in the Water. (If you've seen it, PLEASE don't tell me what happens or what the twist is. I hate knowing ahead of time. Thanks!) It's good for me to get out of the house for small periods of time.
Only 12 days until I start cardiac rehab... (C'mon, you know I have to be counting down to something.)
