Framing it together with music

Goal: pin care and listen to MUSIC

Yes, today I continued on my path of rediscovering MUSIC!  After breakfast, pin care, and a morning movie, I moved back into the bedroom to lift my spirits with some tunes.  I first listened to a CD made by one of my ortho techs (thanks Tony!); it was a mixed CD complete with jazz, indie, and R&B.  That CD really put a positive vibe in the air.  While debating what to play next, I glanced over to right and, I SWEAR, I noticed my clock RADIO for then  first time in months!  (A RADIO has been an arm's reach from my bed since I positioned it there seven years ago, and I haven't thought to turn it on in two months -- what the hell????) After I tripping out for a few minutes,I turned it on and suddenly, the room was filled with my old friends:  Mary J. Blige, Luther Vandross, Stevie, Usher, and many others. Listening to music and surfing the internet -- feels like old times! *smiles*

It was four o'clock when I made my way into the kitchen.  I decided to make my spinach/crab dip.  Although this would take some effort, I would have more than enough for tonight and tomorrow.  A hefty portion of warm dip, tortilla chips, and something to drink will fill the tank every time.

It is now after 7 PM and I have eaten, watched a movie, and cat napped.  I have now made it back into the room, where I'll stay for the remainder of the evening.  I'll listen to some more  tunes and review my scripts for the feature shows I want to record next week. I feel like I am on the road to finding myself again. I hope my assessment is correct.  I'll just promise myself to take baby steps every day.  At the very least, I'll report my accomplishments or lack thereof in this blog.  

In all honesty, I am happy that I did not feel alone today.  Today, I heard the music and it caressed my heart.  Today I let the music in, tomorrow another day will begin.
