Here’s a snapshot of my week:

Tuesday – Shoe shopping for better performance footwear (my current ones caused blisters—walking is still painful!) and a therapy appointment.
Wednesday – Meeting with the university accessibility department, weekly church service and morning tea catch-up (great for practicing social interactions), and a rehearsal at night.
Thursday – Exercise and the general rehearsal for the upcoming Messiah performances.
Friday – Performing in Bendigo.
Saturday and Sunday – Performing in Melbourne, plus choral scholar commitments in the mornings.
