Today (Saturday) is the day I start early at Guitar Center and am done by 1:30 PM, leaving my afternoon free. It is a cool day today, so I probably will not visit the pool. But I may cycle. We shall see. My first student in Christopher, the Autistic 11-year-old who understands music at a deep level. My main task (from my perspective) will be to get him to spread his fingers out when he plays. He tends to chop at keys with his index fingers. What is on your agenda for this sunny and cool Saturday?

I have no agenda. I am watching YouTube and getting a feel for the idiocy of the administration over the weekend. That is always entertaining.

To me, it's really disheartening.

@celticeagle It is so odd. Trump should be in prison. I have a Liberal lawyer friend who says that Vance actually has some decent ideas. I think they will "get" Trump via the 25th Amendment, not Impeachment.

@TheHorse ........I think that even Trump has some good ideas. It's how he implements them that is asinine.

We drove to Switzerland this morning, had a nice breakfast there, walked for a while and we are resting this afternoon.

@TheHorse It is sunny and nice. We stopped at the free libraries inside the old phone booths and brought home some books.

@LadyDuck We have book exchange boxes in some neighborhoods here in the US. Did you leave any books behind?

I hope it warms up a few more degrees here. I would enjoy a dip in the pool.

Guitar Center was fun, though I was hungry by my last lesson. No music plans for tonight. But I did "jam" with my harmonica-playing friend, John, last night.

Do you feel Christopher is making progress with spreading his fingers? Is he a bit better now than when he started?

Oh, he is WAY better at spreading out his fingers than he was when he came on board. Yesterday, he actually did a half-scale for me with his fingers spread out. Then he made eye-contact with me and clapped his hands. He is really trying.

@TheHorse That's great and it must make you feel really good too. A win-win.
