Saturday

Saturday morning is band practice time. It was a different sort of session today as the beginners worked on their first junior band piece and ended their session playing that piece with the combined junior and main bands. It went well and they all went off smiling so that was a relief! The not so good news is that although we have gained one new player, three others have decided to leave, so overall the numbers are down. This always happens; children reach a certain level and then decide to give up. It's disappointing but that's the way it is!

I arrived home to a letter from the hospital confirming that the recent mammogram was clear and I've been discharged from the emergency clinic. It's what I was expecting to hear, but still a massive relief to see it in writing.

As for the rest of the day, I have a few bits and pieces I want to finish off around the house and then have a relaxing night reading and/or watching TV, aiming for an early bedtime again.
