Some more changes have been made to the music2work2 MySpace page. The logo that you will now see associated with music2work2 is the water drop rather than the notes. I love the water drop; I think it is perfect for the sessions of music2work2. I also put up a clip from Paul. This session was composed at the end of last year. I had a hard time knowing where to end the clip - the entire session is so good. But, I finally just chose a section that is a particular favorite and hope visitors to our MySpace page will like it also. It is a really lovely piece of piano and strings.
One of our new MySpace friends is Douglas McCann Music from Carlsbad, California. The music is listed as Classical, and the sound is slightly similar to some music2work2 sessions. The music is a combination of piano and violin, with one of the pieces available on MySpace, "Love Rules" featuring the violin as the prominent instrument. I enjoy listening to this lovely music. I think my favorite of the four musical pieces is "Les Anges Voces." It is very interesting to read the profile about Douglas McCann and the music. You might want to check out this musician's work.
I pretty much took the day off yesterday, in celebration of my birthday. That is the reason no blog was posted. Birthdays are strange times when you reach my age..........depressing on the one hand because you realize so much of your life is over. I have gone through many really horrible times in my life, so I should actually be thankful to have made it through all that and to have reached this age. At times, I am kind of amazed that in spite of too many surgeries to count and all the pain I have lived with since I was born, that I am actually still here, keeping on keeping on.
The good part about birthdays, even at my age, is the realization that so many friends care enough about you to remember your birthday and wish you well. I am extremely grateful for the friends in my life, who have gone through so many of the bad and difficult times with me; and for my family who has been a part of them all, who has stuck by me, made accommodations for me when my physical limitations have been a problem, and who take on additional work doing things for me, as well as what they need to do for themselves. A great deal of credit goes to friends and family that I have managed to reach this age..............No, it's not 80, 70 or even 60 - -- between 50 and 60 - - but at times it seems like 100!
