I've had a lovely day and managed an awful mood for most of it! It's a talent of mine. Church was good. I took away the need for prayerful reflection of who I really am before God. The priest emphasized that change (ie. improvement) can come only with help from God. It was no Oprah episode.
I bought a cashmere wrap that I'd been thinking about for a long time. But, now that I've bought it, I'm thinking it's not worth the money on my salary. If it represented a smaller proportion of my salary, I'd say yes. But, as it is, I need to prioritize. I already have sweaters, sweatshirts, scarves. As lovely as the wrap is, I can't justify it. It's good to know. And, I'll return it next time I'm in SouthPark. I guess I got a hankering for an elegant shawl while at the Symphony the past couple of times. Ladies look so lovely and gently polished in a shawl. Upon reflection, it'll take more than a shawl for me to attain that level of elegance.
I attended a concert this afternoon. I stayed until the intermission and heard some of Handel's Arias and a section of Bach's Brandenburg Concerto. It was amazing! The musicians played the harpsicord, viola de gambo and all these older (almost obsolete) instruments. Pro Musica joined the Charlotte Civic Orchestra. It was enjoyable.
I cam home and took a nap and awoke to two inches of snow, and it's still snowing hours later. The County has already cancelled school.
