Saturday report

[mrissa]

I'm breathing much better. My speaking voice is strong again, and my singing voice is getting there--missing some of the upper register still. When I wake up in the morning I'm able to do stuff rather than feeling really run-down right away.

The feeling really run-down waits until afternoon to kick in.

So as a result of that, and also as a result of trying to do some time-sensitive stuff quick, before time runs out, I am behind on e-mail and behind on my to-do list. If I owe you e-mail, it's not you, it's me. If I don't comment on an lj post or come to a large group social event or whatever, it's not you, it's me. We're doing pretty okay around here. We're just really tired and trying not to start another round of sick and trying to keep on top of the stuff that absolutely must be kept on top of. Which is a weird mix of productivity and tea-drinking.

Take it from someone who knows: don't, do not, force your singing voice. Don't even try the top until the middle is perfectly back. Really. Just don't.

Is singing a fully volitional activity for you? I understand that I should try not to try the top, and I will. But there will always be times in any given day when I didn't intend to start singing, I just did it. Or in some cases didn't, if I'm the wrong kind of sick.

It is now, to my sorrow. Just--you can tell when a note's not there, and you really shouldn't force it if it isn't.

I say tea-drinking *is* productive.

Very glad to hear you're feeling better, and hope the trend continues.
