We had a good long practice tonight. It was very different playing in another church. The shape of the room is different and the sound system a whole lot bigger. And I was miked for the first time. We don’t have enough capacity for that in our system. So it was a good and different and a learning experience. I really wonder what I sound like – maybe it is better not to know – just play along and not worry too much about it.
We are providing the music for the combined Good Friday service that several of the churches in our city get together for. So, O God, make my fingers play the right notes!
Christian was anxious to get home to study for his Chem 30 test tomorrow. That didn’t take him long – I hear him downstairs drumming now. Think we may have to remind him of our noise bylaw – no drumming after 11:00 pm!
And speaking of bylaws – Leo was not happy with the changes made in the city’s bylaw for smoke free places. The councillors kind of gave too many concessions to the buisness people and smoke free won’t happen in bars till 2006. WIMPS !!! Money is more important than people’s health. Well I guess that will keep me out of the bars!!
This is turning out to be a busy week – I guess it is the most important Christian holy day. And of course we don’t treat it so much as a vacation as Christmas. We just fit it into the busy schedules of our lives and life just keeps going on. Although I must say, I am very happy that our office has decided to take the Friday(which is a stat holiday here) and the Monday off. We’re almost as proliferate with our vacation days as government employees! And so my sisters who are coming with their families and my family will take a little bit of time to get together at my dad’s.
