twirling Opera: Santa Fe Style.

There’s always a lot of drama and a prelude to the story of an opera. Lately there’s been plenty of drama for all. Yesterday a terrific acupuncture session brought great relief and insight. My ailing knee moved into healing. A brief walk reinfroced my progress. Ah-h-h: life minus extreme pain? Spectacular. Woke up early: too early this morn. Went back to sleep. When I got up confirmed swim time and was reminded that this week was the week for a senior driving ed class by AARP. Swam. Grabbed a lunch.
Lunch wa at a relatively new restaurant, cafe called “the flip”. Small, located on Second St. Crepes in many forms are their speciality. Bathroom is not handicap accessible, but there is another restaurant next door that might be a little better. Food seemed “light” for what I ordered, however with the $0.50 grilled portabella mushroom side, it was very tastey. What I got, a spinach and feta crepe had no heavy sauce and was very good. More on this restaurant later.
4 hours of class. Tiring. Fortunately my friend brought extra munchies. I did not have time to get anything this morning. Rushed to class, and made good time, even in rush hour. My Feldenkrais class is just what I needed. A good workout which relieved various tension and tight spots. I was suppose to be at the Obama Headquarters, but needed sustanance. A friend and I went to Back Street Pizza. I thought a pizza would be fast, however they were very busy and had a birthday party with many young school age kids. Getting the pizza was VERY slow. Pizza was good. Also on Tuesday nights a group of ever changing musicians show up and jams. The music tonight included mandolin,violins, guitar, and various other instruments. Blue grass and country. Very good. Great company and conversation.
KSFR public Radio is in the third day of its fund drive. Contribute or change stations.
Made it to the new southside Obama for America. Big push here to get the hispanic voters out. All but one volunteer tonight was anglo. I didn’t get much completed tonight because of odd computer difficulties. 9:25 PM MST, after 12 hours out, I said good night, and came home. Decided to tkae a walk to strenghten knee, and so glad to walk almost painfree. It’s been over a year where most of the time walking has been a challenge.Such a blessing, came in took care of cats and then to the computer. Normally days are mellower here. tomorrw AM, I have a meetingat 7:30 AM and a lot to do before my 5:30 PM shift at VC. Just a little drama from all I encountered.
On the way home I listened to an OPera on KSFR: Tuesday night at the opera…support public radio please.
