Just checking in. Dusting off my desktop computer.

520 days without a single puff on a cigarette.

Finished my accounting studies now eligible to study and sit for the CPA exam.

5th year as organist in the same diocese as Pete Buttigieg, which is kind of cool. Our diocesan cathedral married him and Chasten.

I've been singing now that I'm not smoking, as if my legs and hands aren't busy enough. I like composing stuff like accompaniments to prayers in the Book of Common Prayer. Recently I did the traveler's prayer for the Dean of our cathedral who did a hiking tour in Greece.

I'm fat and my blood pressure is up, but I'm seeing a nutritionist and working out so I think that will come down as my time away from smokes increases.

Hope everyone is doing well.

Another day in Paradise.

Working on this in honor of someone over at PW having a dilly of a time with cancer. Trying to make the music I make meaningful.

I need to get away from the facebook crap. I'm so tired of either/or thinking based on arbitrary nonsensical choices. Like if you are for one thing you are also pro something else, when it's just not true.

Yes, I think most of us are in shock and denial about Monica.

Glad you're working on something for her. I may not have my little piece ready on time.
