Glenn and I arrived safely at the Bide-a-Wee in Pacific Grove. We checked in, unloaded, and went off to find the wedding rehearsal. I managed to come without a music stand--and almost forgot my violin, but grabbed that at the last minute. We set up in the frosty air for the practice--and I couldn't find the one piece the bride wanted. Oh no! I grabbed the piano accompaniment on the way out of the house. It has the violin part, but it is little teeny print and there is a page turn. Well, let's see, I'm sure the motel will have a copier and I can copy it and cut out my part. The wedding isn't until 3 tomorrow, there's lots of time to fix things. After the rehearsal, I remembered what I'd done with the music--had it all along, safely tucked into the music case on my violin case--just where I put it last night after I practiced with the quartet--also found the number I'm playing with them. It was very cold at the practice. Rumor is that it may warm up a bit tomorrow. I'm still praying for rain and we can go to plan B--inside. I've got a cold--raw throat and cough. I called the Cancer Care center yesterday and talked with my nurse practitioner. She called in a prescription for antibiotics, just so I'd have them. If I felt better today, fine, don't take them. I didn't. I felt worse. So I'm on antibiotics, just to keep this from turning into something else.
There was a meet and greet with the happy couple tonight. We went for a bit to put in an appearance, but came back to the Bide-a-Wee. I'm about to hop into my jammies and hope to feel better tomorrow. I'll do just about anything for a wedding and I had no intention of missing this one. I'm very glad Glenn took the day off and came down with me. He drove. I rarely give up that much control. That's how crappy I felt.
Here's to a better day tomorrow.
