Mon 30 Mar

Predicted to be another lovely mild day today before getting cold again, potentially snow again Thursday. This is Holy Week, so much singing, church-going, etc. Choir practice tonight, practice for Holy Thursday tomorrow night, service on Holy Thursday, 2-hour rehearsal Sat morning for Easter vigil Saturday night, choir Mass (7:15 meet) for 8 am Mass on Easter, and cantor at 10:30 on Easter. Praying that my voice holds out through the whole gamut. Mary Hofer said she might come cantor with me at 10:30 if she doesn't end up doing anything with her kids; would be nice to have her support. Food: 7:50 am 123 g concha, 105 g blackberries, coffee

Sun 29 Mar

Cantored for Palm Sunday Mass last night for Kathy B as she suddenly got an illness which stole her voice. Hope she gets it back quickly as she is scheduled to sing for most if not all the Holy Week/Easter services. And I sincerely hope it doesn't hit me or Bob with all our commitments for services as well. Food: 7:50 am Chocolate Hazelnut croissant, 103 g blackberries, coffee

Sat 28 Mar

Walked to the indoor Farmer's Market this morning and loaded up on fresh-baked pastries. Also a dozen eggs and some chocolate sugar cookies. In a couple of hours, we will march with the No Kings rally with our newly-made signs. Mine says: GOVERNMENT Of the People, by the people, for the people, ALL the people." Bob's says: "Votes for all" with No Kings symbols. Planning to go to church tonight so we have tomorrow free if either Laura or Axel gets back to us regarding a visit. They have Spring Break this week, so might either or both be headed elsewhere for some R&R. Food: 9:00 am 149 g fruit/cream cheese danish, 103 g blackberries, coffee

Bob spent quite a bit of time fixing the weather station yesterday. Apparently the battery wore out in the outside unit, but getting it to work again with the inside display was complicated. Seems to be working fine again now. Chilly this morning, a little warmer later. Food: 7:50 am 105 g Costco peach pastry, 103 g blackberries, coffee

Tues 26 Mar

March is winding down quickly. Weirdly warm this morning if our thermometer from the weather station is correct - 68° Bob thinks the battery must be going. I'll check Wunderground to see if it corresponds; it says it's 42° which is much more likely. Food: 7:50 am 40 g caramel apple pastry, 23 g mini beignet, 103 g blackberries, coffee

Wed 25 Mar

Should be nice again today. Walking to HSP for the Spirit Lunch in order to hear Gregg Hansel speak about Partnering Together. Hoping to pick up some more current information since the pipeline is not very reliable. Food: 7:50 am 108 g Costco peach croissant, 103 g blackberries, coffee

Tues 24 Mar

Milder temps for a couple of days at least. Need to take my books back to the library today, as I didn't get to the library yesterday. Food: 7:50 am 43 g caramel apple pastry, 63 g mini beignet, 100 g blackberries, coffee
