songspinnerOh dear. I just put a cooking show on the tv at daughter's request (she's tired from a cold and wanted to just veg), turned around less than five minutes later to see her curled up, sound asleep on the couch. My husband is upstairs now, getting the heater going in her room, and then I guess he'll have to carry to her upstairs to bed. It's too darn cold tonight for a California town in March. Hail yesterday (3 times!), rain this morning, and all my students are going cabin-feverish due to having to stay indoors most of the day.
Something cool - got to go hear and see Niamh Parsons live on Sunday. :) One of the two Celtic singers from whose recordings I've learned the most vocal techniques. She has the most amazing, deep, husky alto voice, and a really twisted sense of humor. A couple of songs in the second set were about war, and kept giving me the shivers with how much they applied to current events this weekend. And the last song she sang was one I've sung to my little one many, many times at bedtime. (except I change the name "Sally" in the first verse to my wee one's name :) Got Niamh's autograph on a little poster and chatted for a moment. A nice way to charge myself with energy for the week...
My brain is apparently back on track, and I seem to have two or three stories going at once. Sigh. Typical.
