May Theme:
Question: I never get tired of….(seeing, reading, hearing, doing).
______________________________________________
Lynn Garelick — I never get tired of seeing a beautiful sunset, reading a great historical novel, hearing a prayer of thankfulness for all of God’s Blessings and finally, completing a painting.

Catherine T. Horn
I never get tired of Words.
I am a collector of Words.
Witty Words and
Unusual Words.
Words that rhyme and
Words with multiple meanings
Any and all kinds of Words.
I never get tired of Words.

Linda Hortick –
I never get tired of a peaceful morning when it is quiet and I have time to think.
I never get tired of praying, it brings me comfort.
vI never get tired of enjoying beautiful music.
I never get tired of writing, painting and playing the piano.
I never get tired of living my life to the fullest each day.

Doris Mady – I will never tire of feeling a wet (or dry) nose nudge me. That nose belongs to my Golden Retriever, Kerry, who gives me unconditional love and once in a while that nudge means I need to give her a belly rub. Small price to pay on my part.

Lee Paine — I never get tired of singing! This is my 60th happy year singing with the Greenwich Choral Society, celebrating its 100th season this May! It is an auditioned group, as are the 3 opera companies I have sung with over the last 40 years, including a “… renowned production of Così fan tutte directed by Peter Sellars … conducted at the PepsiCo Summerfare at SUNY Purchase, NY, in 1986… highlighted in The New York Times.” (Google). Two of my sons, ages10 and 13, were also singers in that production.
In 1991, I was thrilled be invited into CT Grand Opera’s chorus – 3 operas a year for some 14 years, including 2 productions with Yale Opera – and then with New Rochelle Opera for 18 years, singing in 23 different operas over the years.
It is also my 35th year loving singing in a variety of church choirs, many of them as a paid singer, as with The Riverside Church Professional Choir in NYC for 7 years, and as a section leader with St. John’s RC Church in Darien for 18 years, and as a volunteer with several other local churches, currently in the Christ Church Singers, Greenwich. I will joyfully sing as long as my voice and body stay strong!
June Theme:
What is your “secret power” and how do you use it?
Patience pays off – Each successful artist has to develop an attitude; have a selective eye to take something beyond what is routinely acceptable….Many people are artistically inclined, but the good artists are separated from the mediocre by their patience and willingness to ‘pay their dues’. ~ Bart Forbes
