You have probably noticed by now that I have not been around these pages much this week. There are a couple of good reasons for that, but suffice it to say the struggle to fit things in this week was real but ultimately successful. The real high light of the week came this morning at 8:30 when two nice young men arrived with my new bed and proceeded to professionally assemble and place the bed where I wanted it. They also left me the necessary tools to disassemble it should the occasion to move occur. Down below is what I now proudly have in my front room and it has been sleep tested and approved by me already!
As you can see I was pretty spot on with my bedding selections as it is gorgeous and matches up with the framing wood and iron perfectly. I dressed the bed then snuggled in for a nap and for the first time in I don't know how long, I dropped right off with no 'outside help' and slept soundly and peacefully. Uncle is a very happy camper today!
I have made another significant improvement in my life this week with the purchase and delivery of my new mouse. I was having horrific tracking issues with my old mouse, and improving the mouse pad with gaming one from Corsair did not greatly improve matters. So Will ran the configurator over on the Razer site and came up with what should be the perfect mouse for me, The Death Adder Classic, which comes with its own custom mouse pad. As you can see below it is a dynamihe presentation and it tracks like a dream!
So my online experience is bound to be enhanced by a mouse that actually does what it is designed to do every time. It came with a bonus virtual surround sound program for my headset which makes all my classical music sound that much better which is a definite win for me! Seaking of great classical music, I have some good stuff lined up for you today.
Like I told you on Monday, I have performances from the 2015 Queen Elisabeth International Violin Competetion in Brussels to share with you . I have 3 performances today and 2 for tomorrow so we will be rocking out to some of the world's great violin concerti. Down below, I have two performances from the Final Round of the Competition, recorded live with the National Orchestra of Belgium under conductor Marin Alsop. First is 26 year old Ukranian violinist Oleksii Semenenko performing Jean Sibelius’ ‘Violin Concerto in D Minor Op. 42’ followed by 23 year old German violinist Thomas Reif performing Tchaikovsky’s ‘Concerto in D Major, Op. 35’. Over on my tumblr, I have 20 year old Taiwanese violinist William Ching-Yi Wei performing Shostakovich’s ‘Concerto No. 1 in A Minor Op. 77’, also from the Final Round with the National Orchestra of Belgium and Marin Alsop.
Then to add special-ness to this special edition, I have managed to put together 3 collections with the intention of posting each day, but you see where that got me, lol. Anyway, down below is a Triple Treat Thursday post with all the eye candy I have gathered for your visual appreciation this week. Over on my tumblr there is also a trip treat of Hotties of the Day! for your drooling pleasure. Thanks for still being here when I showed up at last. I promise I will see you again soon. Until next time as always, Enjoy!
