She lives with her elderly mother, so, when she has to go out of town for work-related things, which occurs frequently through-out the year, I stop by to visit her mother 2 or 3 times a week, on some of the days days that I know her son can't visit (he lives out of town).
Played piano for her today, because she enjoys that. I usually play a variety of music, which I also play later in the week at a nursing home that I volunteer at. I choose a variety of styles of music, including hymns, classical, show tunes, some stuff from the 60's and 70's with easy-listening kinds of melodies. The most frequent comment I receive at the nursing home is that they enjoy the variety. Today, one of the songs that I played for Viola was "Piano Man" by Billy Joel. She enjoyed the melody, so I read her some of the words (those in red). Its nine o'clock on a SaturdayShe asked to see my book, so I gave it to her, hoping she wouldn't be terribly observant. After looking at it for awhile, she happily returned it, commenting, "Innocent words." (I am assuming that she missed the parts about the bar, the alcohol and the drugs!) :-) Always have fun with Viola! ~ Faith
