Day 61 in 2024

At our last Band Festival performance. I cried a little in the sightreading room. Ok, a lot. Sometimes I can't stop the feeling of anger and frustration that comes from having been robbed of two years of these normally fabulous high school activities (thanks to the pandemic), but it just makes each experience we do get that much more precious.
