Singing in the choir good for my mental health

I’ve always loved singing ☺
Singing in the choir is one thing that makes me happy. Good to learn how to sing properly, learn a new hobby, take yourself out of your comfort zone, helps mental health and to meet new people, whilst having fun with friends.
We have 4 Christmas concerts coming up, so practicing Carol of the bells and Winter wonderland with the choir tonight.
We have only been doing this since May this year, I’m really enjoying it and it’s amazing how a bunch of strangers can come together, give it a go, learn and be taught how to sing 4 part harmonies and begin to sound magical together.

Infernotemporal defect – Temporal vision

Well, I’ve just had my follow up letter from my last appointment with the eye centre and comfimation of a infernotemporal defect.

The problems I’ve had in my right eye, I’ve discussed before in earlier posts.

I’m very sad today. Scared and sad to be completely honest.

It’s one thing knowing my peripheral vision in my right eye is failing but another to have it seen inside by my consultant.

They have said my peripheral vision shouldn’t be compromised with the condition I have so this is why I’m having all these tests.

There must be another condition or something else wrong in there.

I still have to wait to see the main man, in a few months for the results of all these tests.

Some ice cream and a beer is in order to make me feel a little better about something there’s nothing I can do about.

Or just one mahoosive bender.

I think my left eye is OK… Peripherally.

Small mercies and all that. But that’s what you have to do. Pick the good bits out and appreciate the small things.
