Some of the kitties from my volunteer job today
Had a good shift today with the kitties and am feeling good. Been practicing violin 1 1/2 - 2 hours a day. Working on everything my violin teacher told me to work on. Next lesson is this Saturday. Playing violin helps a my anxiety a lot. Also keeps me from dissociating because it requires being really focused and in the present moment. Holding the instrument properly, holding the bow properly etc there’s so much that goes into it so it’s a good way to ground myself. Helps that I love playing and learning. I’ve been taking videos of myself playing so I can document my progress over time.
Don’t have a whole lot else going on this week , hope you all have a great week!
