Today Rocked!

Today was a really good day for me! I had two new tellers start, which I was worried about, but they did great. I received a call about Piano lessons and I have a new student starting tomorrow evening. I am so excited! When we moved I had to drop all my students. I didn’t realize how much I missed teaching until today. I can’t wait! I spoke with Matt; I may have found him a job and a roommate. And, he said that he made A’s on his midterms. Also, I spoke to my MK consultant about possibly selling MK, and that went really well. We had a nice lunch at a local cafĂ©; my salad was awesome. Also, Rafaella’s, a local Italian restaurant brought us lunch, so I have that to eat for supper. Yum! So, all in all, this day rocked! The rest of the week has a lot to live up to! J

Better now...

I had started this blog a couple of days ago, and my computer messed up. So, I thought I had lost it. But, here it is! It is similar to one that I posted in its place. I am really bored at work, so I thought I would post it anyway. :-)


Finally! I am getting better. My nose is a little runny, and I have that famous lingering cough. Not to mention the horrible fatigue that follows a round of the flu. But I am on the mend.

This week has been rather boring, so I don't have a lot to write about. I didn't get to see the lunar eclipe last night. It was too cloudy. Kristi saw a fox though, I thought she said "someone is throwing rocks." So, that was kind of funny. I was like where? She said it ran under the board walk! I was like huh? Ok, so that was a "had to be there" moment! :-) I started playing the piano again this week. I haven't been very motivated to do anything lately. And, I didn't have my keyboard for several months. So, my music has suffered greatly. It really feels good to play again. Although, it is also very frustrating for me. It is taking a lot of work to play the most simple things. I will get back on track if I really pratice ever day. It is going to take some hard work, but I can do it. :-)

I have been really homesick the past couple of weeks. I haven't been home since before Christmas. We are hoping to go home around Easter. I really hope everything works out. I haven't seen Mom's side of the family in a year. Not all together anyway. I really miss the family get togethers.

I am also hoping that everything works out because a friend of mine is having a baby soon, and it would awesome to get to see her and the baby!

Well, I need to work now. So, I will write more later!

Coordination and the lack there of...

I was just thinking about how uncoordinated I am. It is really strange, how I can sit down and play Bach on the piano, yet I can't walk without hurting myself! I seriously walk into a door frame at least once a week, most times more. I drop things all the time. When I drink out of a glass, I will miss my mouth and pour water all over myself. You would think that was like Martin Short's character in Pure Luck. If there is a broken chair in the room, I will sit in it. Last night I went bowling with the girls from work, and I almost took out one of my tellers with the ball! Yet, through all of this I can pull out music and play it like it is nothing hard at all. I think that at a very young age, while I was still developing my coordination skills, I put all my efforts in piano. Perhaps my brain focused so hard in this one area that everything else suffered! :-)
