Singing in the rain! Or while waiting for the doctor... (Patreon)

I promised you some embarrassing out takes, so here goes!

There was a glorious purple wall bathed in tangy florescent light. 

We had been closed in this room for almost an hour but it was starting to feel like many days. Oscar already had time to throughly explore the room, tried to escape by hanging his full body weight on the door knob, and read three books at least ten times each.

Luckily, there was one clear sign the doctor must have planned for this moment! 

There was a HUGE wheel full of paper placed conveniently at the end of the table, on a free spinning spool. That MUST be for the sole purpose of Oscar unraveling it and filling the room with the glorious crinkly stuff. 

Not so luckily, Mom just didn't understand that that's what the paper is clearly there for, and kept trying to stop him. Unreasonable! And unacceptable! 

Remember how I told you we we had a new song in the works that came about during morning coffee time? It's about sitting still and seeing what's all around in the room. 🤗

I surprised myself with attempting some high notes and Oscar loved it! Totally captivated, he thinks the high notes are really funny. 

So that encourages me to keep trying! 

So this was my last resort to survive till the doc arrives without a total melt down. I busted out the morning song with some new lyrics about sitting at the doc office. 

The seemingly barren room actually had a lot of Inso to draw on for these "lyrics" hah!

A few minutes in I thought of you Patrons and hit record. It made me shakier but I pressed on in hopes of capturing a bit of what goes on when no one is listening.

Just some silliness to fill the time. 

Grateful you have me on this path! Without you I don't know if I would have taken the singing course, that lead to opera attempts over coffee, that lead to this rambling melody that turned a mission critical moment into an enjoyable way to pass the time during one of life's common little moments. 

Thank you!! May this weekend be sprinkled with some glittering magic in places you least expect it.

More soon,
Jenny
