Verdi Rock Fest
Twenty-six weeks today!
The Baby rocked and rolled during the entire chorus practice last night. We are singing The Verdi Requiem which I grow to enjoy more and more each rehearsal. It's really a beautiful piece of music and enjoyable to sing especially because Verdi uses the entire range of each part which means that as an alto, I get to sing higher than an octave above Middle C.
I'm familiar with strange pregnancy dreams but the last three mornings have been something else. I've been in a bad mood when woken up each day. Twice it was because I resented The Husband for waking me up before concluding the dream and then this morning I was grumpy because The Husband was a jerk in the dream itself. Let me state that I am so spoiled that I no longer have to be awoken by an alarm but rather by my husband who says sweetly, "honey, time to wake up." This is because he gets up much earlier than I do to go to work. For me to wake up grumpy is a severe injustice to him and I will try to do better. Regardless, those dreams are crazy.
I'm fretting my glucose test daily. I take it on the 5th. I know that there's nothing that can be done about it if I am positive and it's just something to deal with but I'd really like to remain in my "low risk" category. I'm terrified of unnecessary medical interventions and I'm terrified of making the wrong decision for myself and my child. There, it's said.

What a beautiful piece of music you get to sing! I wish I was blessed with a good singing voice...which unfortunately I'm not. So much for lullabies!
