Got home and checked my mail which I love to do. Actually received , a personal letter-rare these days and an invitation to donate money which is not so rare. In fact, that I think that I receive invitations to donate several times a week. I do donate but must decide ahead of time who will receive money. Many worthy causes but I can not give to all of them. Now back to the mail. There was a package which seemed to be larger than the norm: it is a book. I was one of the first 100 responders to a Random House draw. How nice is that! I won a book, A Memoir of Mothers, Daughters, and the Breast Cancer Gene. Not a very happy topic but I will read the book.
It is things like this that encourage me to keep doing draws and the like.

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
