The title assumes the concept that once it’s begun it is heading for a finish. With all the projects this ADD senior starts, I never consider them lost, just resting, ya know? I’m a fan of alliteration. Besides, ‘on-going projects’ is just too cumbersome.

Second dragon is almost finished.
One of my “One more thing” projects. My brother and I split up a Lucky Bamboo Plant into two parts. I watched a YouTube video and decided to try my hand at propagating. That’s only half.

The “Ilo” team still loves each other. Milo and Shilo. Sammy plays with them but doesn’t get in on the groom. By the way, we still only have two buttons. Sammy found and understands the ‘Water’ button. Milo has only once volunteered to hit the ‘outside’ button. We are still in the process of getting him to understand his responsibility. Definitely a work-in-progress.
I’m still having fun with Duo.

I’d throw in pics of my knitting and crocheting, but with only a row or two every couple of days, progress doesn’t show much. My shoulder and thumb joints have been objecting to too much yarning.

My piano time is growing. I have quite a collection of songs in the process, from starting to learn Natural Woman, through trying to memorize Music Box Dancer and Gymnopรฉdie. I think there are about 20 tunes in rotation. None perfect, but all fun for the challenge and the process.


What have I been focusing on this week?

I’m pretty proud to have received this today. Whoopie!
Nearly 2/3s finished with my second dragon. This one isn’t so naturally straight as my last one. I can see so much needing the straightening tool before I finish.
For nearly two years, I have worked on just sight-reading and trying to enjoy music. My progress is slower than I’d like, but I think I am nearly caught up with my 12-year-old self. But I’m still not near my music major days of my 40s. So I have been working through the next book. By the way, I learned piano and reading at the same time, so Music is my first/second language. I think that is why I love Italian.
The last chapter I read yesterday suggested practicing the bad parts 10 times correctly before moving on. When I was a child, my mother would have 10 buttons on the left side of the piano. Each time I played a piece or section, I would move a button per attempt. I hate to admit Mom was right. And I found myself balking at the thought of going through that again. I wanted to play! Today I chose to try to stay with my energy. I will gradually move into that rhythm of practice. Today’s reading led me to see other ways to get there. Shorter practice times with breaks and naps, and always a good night’s sleep. Okay, maybe I can handle it. I’ll keep reading. Eventually, I will have to take notes. Meanwhile, my goals are not to teach or play in concerts. My goal is to enjoy it and, hopefully, get loved ones to enjoy it too.

Because of my arm/shoulder pain, I am not knitting or crocheting so much. That means lots of games on my tablets, I like the escaping blocks type games. Any suggestions while healing?
