Music. I'm not sure where I would be without it. Especially today. I needed my ipod to get through an early morning workout at the gym. I set my ipod to shuffle throughout my entire music catalogue, and every once in a while I get to laugh out loud as 30 Seconds to Mars transitions into the Wicked soundtrack, or a Haydn Mass. I got to drive a friend to the airport in Denver today so she can go home and visit her family for Thanksgiving. It's about an hour and fifteen minute drive. On my ride back to Colorado Springs, I turned up the volume on my ipod (same shuffle set up as at the gym) and sang. It was a great day for turning the music up and singing at the top of my lungs. My day continued with choir practice. Our Christmas concert is in a week in a half - already! We are performing Haydn's Mass in Time of War and a Christmas cantata by Daniel Pinkham. Rehearsal today was exhausting, but great. I have a lot of practicing to do, but I love how singing Christmas music makes me feel peaceful and excited about the upcoming Christmas season. There was a slight cheesecake incident this evening. It's amazing what some good music (and a glass of wine) will do to help me relax, take a deep breath, and start over. So, today, especially, I am thankful for music. La, la, la!
