Workplace juggling, carpool shenanigans, leaving orchestra, returning to orchestra, fundraising successes (go us!), and me as a singing Christmas tree do. Plus, a recounting of what I didn’t accomplish. GO ME!

One of the joys of having about five followers, especially when I don’t post on social media, is that I kind of get to do/say what I want on this site without much recourse. (Eye-rolling isn’t a recourse, Anna; it’s rude and hurtful.) Sorry about that! Anyway, WordPress and I are in a bit of…
