Flutterings

My issues are even more fundamental than that -- I took a break from singing for five years or so, and with lack of practice (compounded by recurrent brochitis), I've lost both range and breath control. Things I'd like to retrieve eventually, but when I'm honest with myself, music is not even among my top five priorities, so I'm trying not to beat myself up about not getting around to practice. (The good thing is that I'm a far smarter musician than I was back in my twenties, and I've just started learning the "Nashville Number System" (i.e., how to read and write band charts), which I'm finding nifty enough to engage both sides of my brain...)
