Packing clothes is relatively easy… but what yarn/needles do I pack? I have too many choices… but this is a high-class problem.

I’ve been emotional all day. I did not realize until now, how much this particualr performance meant to me. It is a major hassle (and expense) to go to NYC and find a place to stay, parking, clothes that are just right for stage, plan food and knitting, and make plans to be away from my normal work routine (what I do does not allow for a substitute teacher).

Right now I have to say that I am OK with the inconveniences. Singing in New York? That was my childhood dream. I’m living my dream. How cool is that?

I’m so glad my dear friend April (and her family) is literally next door. I know the home front is well covered while we flit to a near-fantasy gig. Well, wearing formalwear for hours on end, three days in a row, is not my idea of fun, but all the rest is great by me.

I’ll write here when I can get an Internet connection, but I may not be as dependable as usual.
