There are a lot of great musicians now who came up in churches. For many that training was exceptionally robust and its absence would be a great loss.

The organization that I donate art and school supplies to is on hiatus until May when they'll reopen in larger digs much closer to me, so decluttered materials for them are going into a bin. In the past I went through stashes of the kids' pencils, markers, paper and paint supplies, and my own sewing studio, but today I discarded a lot of my pens. Dried ones were trashed but there were others that I'll never use before they dry out so a couple of boxes of Pentel and Pilot pens and a quart bag of strays are now in the bin. There are plenty here still but now concentrated into fewer holders and a couple of mugs are in the dishwasher that haven't held tea in years.
