Saturday

Just a quick update. Caroling tonight from church is on the calendar, and tomorrow evening, the choir Christmas cantata +, with an hour of warm-up/practice before and a special coffee hour afterwards. Somehow, between the end of library today and the singing tonight I must needs come up with a simple sort of scene change for the DCS Christmas musical (Tuesday night performance date) that I have only a vague sort of notion how to create. Should be interesting. And offered to bring some sort of food tonight and have an idea but it will require a trip to the store, which will cut into the backdrop time....
but I'm set I think for ornaments --except for some that need a repainting and that I'm loath to bring back to the painter--black stars! That I'd asked to be dark blue (went a little too far). Which is an odd enough color for a star I guess, so maybe should leave well enough alone...and consider it a happy accident rife with creative possibilities. Worked on all the others last evening finishing up--watched 4 episodes from season 2 of All Creatures Great and Small (from the library!) and an old movie called Since You Went Away, which was a sweet old thing... have any of you seen it? If not, try for it--Claudette Colbert, Jennifer Jones, Shirley Temple, Joseph Cotton...you'll like these people, even though some of them smoke....
