I just came back from seeing Melrose High School students perform in the play Thoroughly Modern Millie. I enjoy watching and this one was particularly great! All the performers were incredible and it was fun to watch the story because I always liked the play Thoroughly Modern Millie. Watching the play today was also nice because it reminded me of when I was in school plays. A lot of the time I did work behind the scenes but it was fun to be part of something that made a lot of people have a good time. I'm always glad to be part of music and happiness!

A wonderful weekend of singing and music!
I just came back from an awesome weekend with the Harborlight Show Chorus (all women barbershop acapella group)! Our chorus competed in a regional competition. We have been working for months practicing Georgia On My Mind and Rockabye Your Baby and sang the best we'd ever sung before! It was super fun! We stayed at a hotel with a symphony hall next door where we sang. It really was lovely. I want to congratulate all who competed!

I got the feeling
The singer James Brown was born today in 1933 and to celebrate him, I thought I'd share a song he sang called "I got the Feeling." It really does make me feel like dancing and I figure days are always made better by dancing. So when I listen to the song, I can't help but have a good feeling!

Somewhere only we know
It's the Singer Lily Allen's birthday and she sang a lovely cover of a song called "Somewhere Only We Know." Listening to it made me think about how nice it is to have somewhere to go (even if it's just in one's mind) where people feel like they belong and where they escape to in times of need. It's nice to have places to go!

One thing I'm glad I learned how to do
"Read in order to live."- Gustave Flaubert Read more at: https://www.brainyquote.com/quotes_of_the_day.html
Of all the things I've learned in my life, one of the things I'm very glad I learned how to do. I'm glad I learned to read not just because it allows to avoid falling off cliffs and other dangerous things that warning signs tell you not to do. I'm glad because there are times when I feel like I'm happiest when I'm reading a good book. Throughout my life it has been really comforting to know that whenever I want to, I can go somewhere I couldn't ordinarily travel to, all I need to do is read a book. I hope that everyone has at least one book, magazine, website, or blog (even if it isn't this one) that they really like to read and that they can escape into when they feel like it. I'm also grateful to people who take the time to read this blog, just because I like the idea that it is possible for me to provide a place for others to escape and feel happy.
