So it's been awhile and what has started out a way to begin my freelancing career has turned into a major flop.    It's funny how certain things just happen.   Like I just happen to get writer's block once I decide that I want to write for a living.  I write in my journal and that's about it.   Honestly, it's really easy to write in a journal that you know is for your eyes only.   But writing for an audience? What part of my life would someone want to know about or what part of my life would I feel comfortable sharing with the whole of God's earth.    

Yeah, that's not going very well. 

But drawing is. Can't say much for painting. I drew this great picture of a silhouette playing the upright bass.  I was proud of it, you could really feel the movement in the picture, it's great.    

I'm not writing and i'm not drawing much... my life consists mainly of preschool, and piano lessons.  I love to teach children, absolutely.  It's the best thing in the world. I've got a theory book to write for my students....it's so hard to write instructional books, especially on things that seem so obvious to the seasoned musician.   

Yesterday Chris and I went to Montgomery.  He's on his 2 wk vacation and that was our mini vacation.   It was so much fun, seriously, I don't remember the last time we had this much fun.   We didn't plan anything besides where we were going and how much to spend.   It was great.  We ice skated for the first time and I discovered that I have  muscles in my feet that really really ache!   We shopped in randomn funny stores and our favorites and we ate a cookie while watching the zambooni clean the ice!   The rest of the day was spent walking at east chase mall and exploring the local craft store. We watched a movie in the Rave ( Yes, Man--I wouldn't recommend it) and had dinner at a gas station.  All the while we freezed!   Both of us bought extra sweaters to keep us warm! It was so much fun!  

From now on, all vacation are to be planned as little as possible!!!
