Just finished unpacking and sorting after returning from a wedding in Ottawa. Drove there and back by myself, I know that is hard to believe but I did it. People who know me know that I do not enjoy driving on major highways. Have been known to do some driving on the major highways but prefer quieter back roads. That is what I did today and I am glad that I did because a couple times, I hit some very heavy rain and would not have wanted to be driving full speed and barely able to see.
After putting things away and dealing with paper work, it is time to reflect on the wedding. The bride was lovely, her dress very tasteful and the groom of course handsome.
I know that there are customs associated with weddings but one I think that I would like to see changed is having the friends of the bride on one side and the groom's family on the other. Why not mix them up and then there is some chance that they will get together at the reception. Just a thought.
There are things that I find fascinating about weddings such as relationships between the two families. Most often it is a challenge integrating the two but it can be done.
I wish this married couple all the best and look forward to the next wedding.

Che ce'di nuovo: from our Italian classes-what's new. I hope to write about what's new in my life and also what I find of interest that is new. Will be interesting to explore the everyday and look at it with new eyes.

About Me
- Bassoon Woman
- Despite the fact that I have been playing the bassoon since I was 13 years old, there are people who will be surprised by the name Bassoon Woman. Some of these people would be my tennis partners who only know me as an eager opponent on the tennis court. I am living proof that you can get better as you as age. At least, I think that I am playing better (they accepted me on one of the club teams last year.) Members of the garden club where I attend sessions designing florelle centre pieces, are always surprised to see me at performances. My next performance is at Colborne Lodge in High Park, we are playing a return engagement celebrating spring on March 20. Hopefully, it will be springlike. These are just a few of the activities that occupy my time. After 30 years of teaching fulltime, I now work part-time teaching music in a high school. Wonderful experience. I am looking forward to exploring the many experiences fill my days. noramr2@gmail.com
