Tuesday Night

Tonight I have been obsessively listening to "November", by Max Richter. Beautiful, haunting.
If I could have anything in the world, I would ask for my daughter and her school orchestra to play this.


Needless to say, if you have read my blog in the past, when I start with the excessive replaying of intense music it's quite possible I may be struggling with depression again.

So, this blog still exists. Not long ago a friend of mine asked me to blog again. She missed me. Over the last couple of years I have thought a lot about what it used to be. When I started blogging back in 2006 it was exciting to have a personal space for whatever I wanted to say. Personal blogging was all the rage back then. Things have changed since then. It's all about Facebook now for my generation, and Instagram (and Snapchat, Kik and who knows what else) for our kids. There are still lots of blogs out there, but for many of us, posting on Facebook has largely replaced blogging as the way to connect to others, to express ourselves.

I'd like to use this space again.
