New hobbies of 2020

New hobbies of 2020

During the time at home for those few months this year, I tried and did not succeed in learning how to play the piano. It has been a bucket list item most of my life. When I was a kid in Norwalk, we had an organ that my mom would play by ear. She would be able to hear any song once, and play it perfectly. I have a long time friend like that now, Pete Salant. He can sit down and play any request. So fun at parties! It always amazes me how people can read music and play an instrument. It’s a gift. Cheers to those of you who can pick up something and play!

Have you been dining out?

Have you been dining out?

So, here we are again, Phase 2.1 is in effect for the State of CT. More restrictions for some things. But, if you feel comfortable, these next few days will be perfect for checking out your local restaurants. Outdoor dining, sweater weather, fall, and the guidelines. It took me a while to be able to dine out, and I am still not fully used to seeing people wearing masks, but, it sure would mean a lot to your neighbors and family or friends who do own restaurants to let them know we got their backs. So, if you feel that you would like to venture out, the one thing that won’t be in your way will be the weather.
