No snow yet, thankfully

I am doing the Oregon Bach Festival book club again, and this month we're reading a book about Beethoven. Each chapter has a corresponding work for us to listen to and think about. I have extra time for listening to the referenced pieces, too, because J's gone to Portland for a big Magic tournament this weekend. D's qualified to play in the main event, and J and DG will try to qualify tomorrow; if they don't make it there are plenty of fun side events on Saturday and Sunday too.

Meanwhile, focusing on my posture and symmetry while walking is paying off; I've now been on several walks with no return of the sciatica. A win for paying attention!
