Bob!: Ringing Weekend!
http://treblesgone.blogspot.com/2009/04/ringing-weekend.html
I like big bells and I cannot lie. Thursday, April 23, 2009. Wow, I think 4 days later I may have rested up enough after this past weekend. And what a weekend it was! The Baldwins and the Penneys came to visit from England, and folks turned up from South Carolina to Birmingham to come and ring at St. Lukes. I met lots of wonderful people and made some significant progress in my ringing. Sneaky Lyn then called two other ringers to take hold and suddenly I was tenoring on 10. 10! Oh, and Roger, you left so...

Bob!: Worrying about all the wrong things......
http://treblesgone.blogspot.com/2009/03/worrying-about-all-wrong-things.html
I like big bells and I cannot lie. Monday, March 16, 2009. Worrying about all the wrong things. This post is going to start with knitting. Yes, I know I have a knitting blog and all, but it really belongs here right now. You'll see. I get around to ringing. It works, too. Trust me. There is this cast on I have been fighting for over a year. It should be really simple, but it has utterly eluded me. For round shawls, you start by making a loop with the yarn in one hand (not even a knot! This is usually whe...

Bob!: Just popping in!
http://treblesgone.blogspot.com/2009/06/just-popping-in.html
I like big bells and I cannot lie. Tuesday, June 16, 2009. Just dropping you all a brief note. I got really sick last month and have had a little minor but uncomfortable surgery. I'm doing well, but I'm not climbing tower staircases or pulling ropes for a bit. I'm definitely on the mend and will be back with you as soon as I'm back in action. Thanks for your understanding, it should not be too long. My first post back will undoubtedly be on how much I am missing ringing and all my ringing friends!

Bob!: For Whom the Bell Tolls
http://treblesgone.blogspot.com/2009/04/for-whom-bell-tolls.html
I like big bells and I cannot lie. Friday, April 17, 2009. For Whom the Bell Tolls. But it makes a certain sense. Toll the years; the deceased has earned that solemn salute. Then, celebrate the life lived. Today, I really feel proud to be a bell ringer. Strokes" whenever I start to lose it. She was definitely there this evening helping me get to eight. And if you want to know, it is ". Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Things I never planned to do in 2009. For Whom the Bell Tolls.

Bob!: December 2008
http://treblesgone.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
I like big bells and I cannot lie. Monday, December 29, 2008. Writing the first post to a new blog is always strange and awkward. The tone of the blog is never set in the first post, but sometimes you feel like it will be. So I won't pressure myself here by trying to write anything brilliant. This blog is about bell ringing. Actually change ringing. Actually, it is more accurately the ramblings of a 47 year old North American woman who is learning ringing. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Bob!: February 2009
http://treblesgone.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
I like big bells and I cannot lie. Sunday, February 8, 2009. Today I received permission to set my own bell. In my tower, this is a right of passage. Permission is granted when the ringing master determines a learner's skill has reached the point where they can be trusted to handle bells without further close supervision, and are ready to handle the responsibilities of being a learner on their own. So today after the first round of service ringing when the conductor called us to stand - I did! So today a...

Bob!: Time Out!
http://treblesgone.blogspot.com/2009/05/time-out.html
I like big bells and I cannot lie. Sunday, May 3, 2009. I am betrayed. The 6, my oldest friend, with whom I took my first baby steps in ringing, clearly doesn't like me. It feels that way. I can't seem to ever find my stroke with her, she jumps over the balance with the lightest overpull and will not settle for me. First I thought it was just me, but today I rang the 5 successfully for the second time and I have no problem with the tenor, so clearly, this is personal. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Bob!: January 2009
http://treblesgone.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
I like big bells and I cannot lie. Friday, January 30, 2009. Was perfect, but I don't know exactly what I did or how to repeat it. What about the other side of the coin? The medical community is even less willing to admit to the positive power of the mind on the body, but how many times have you heard of breakthroughs in healing due to mood enhancing therapies and positive imagery? What if I parrotted the experienced ringers who moved with ease and confidence? So I tried it. Um, it worked. I'm also not s...
