I am having what turns out to be an interesting day.

One happy thing is that we had our taxes done. . . and we owe less than we thought we did, much less. Whew! Yeeha!

And then the mail came. . . and there was a Claudia Acuna cd that I didn't think I had ordered. In fact there were two copies, one sealed, and one open with on the front cover "Lon Armstrong, Thank you for your support! Claudia Acuna" . . . . I looked and it was mailed by Claudia Acuna.

I've looked through my purchase history and I can't see anywhere that I ordered that cd, although I did order a few other Acuna cds a month ago.

A happy mystery! Thanks Ms Acuna!

I just finished making a permanent resting place for my dear Fiona the miniature dachshund near one of her favorite spots in the back yard. She stopped eating and drinking two days ago, and we made an appointment with the vet's for a probable termination for 11:00 a.m. and true to her self-determined nature she decided to pass away peacefully in her dog bed at 9:30 a.m. She was a BIG part of my life, I'm really going to miss her, but we gave her a full life and she did not seem in pain, just drifted away. She was such a character! I miss her already.

I'm playing this disc. . . she always settled down and took a nice snooze whenever I would. And it's comfort music for me.

Duke Ellington and his Orchestra "Indigos" Columbia stereo LP

Lon, I'm saddened to hear about your loss. Please accept my condolences.

I got my first dog as a young adult. My wife and i thought what could be hard about raising a dachshund puppy

We were about to learn a lot. Thanks for letting us get to know Fiona through your many references of her. She will certainly be missed by the community.

Thanks Gentlemen. It is going to be a big adjustment for me as she was on me "like Fruit of the Loom." I was her anchor, especially the last year and when she went. blind and then deaf. She was a rogue in the early years--stole a steak off Lucinda's plate, wouldn't go for walks where WE wanted her to walk, and so many other stubborn incidents. But we loved her and are glad she is not struggling any longer to just get through a day.

One day it will be the warmer part of spring! Starting off with some Brazilian jazz to warm things up and burst a little cloud of melancholy. Mario Adnet "Saudade Maravilhoso" A beautiful recording.

Brian Blade "Lifecycles, Vols. 1-2: Now! and Forever More Honoring Bobby Hutcherson"

Brian Blade - drums and background vocals
Rogerio Boccato - percussion
Jon Cowherd - piano, wurlitzer and background vocals
Monte Croft - vibraphone, marimba and lead vocals
John Hart - guitar
Myron Walden - flute, tenor and alto saxophone and bass clarinet
Doug Weiss - bass

This is a wonderful tribute to "Now!" and other Bobby Hutcherson musics. And great engineering as well.
