Slogan: Doing The Work Reaps Rewards

Hye folks,
Its a new month and a new message to keep me inspired. This one is important to me because I am working on creating a new attitude within me. My old understanding was that bad behavior was rewarded with attention; whether good or bad, it was all attention. Now, I want to relearn how to do things, do them as well as I know how, to the best of my ability and know that its good enough to reap the rewards.

Since I started this blog at the beginning of the school year, it feels like I am coming to the end of things, but that isn't true, there is no end when working on a project of the heart. But I am going to think of a way to reward myself for progressing with my work. No no no , it won't be a daily trip to Dairy Queen, no sense doubling my weight just to keep me motivated, I'd have to get a small harp that I can walk around with so I can walk while I practice at that rate:)

I have made up a list of all the pieces I have used as part of my monthly lists all year and have come up with a set of pieces that will give me a good practice session even if I only do each thru once or twice daily.

Music To - Do List For May

* Wisteria
* Sakura
* Happy Birthday/Here Comes The Bride
* Sean Bui
* Star of County Down
* Swan Lake
* Rickshaw Ride
* Christ Child's Lullabye
* Searching For Lambs

Well, that is half the list for the year. There is also going to be a small group lesson with Alison this month so she'll have a new piece for us to practice. I am so happy that I am going to be able to join them, its been so long since I have been available during the daytime.

I also want to get the rest of the music sheets in plastic sleeves and gotten into binders for easier handling. That is going to be part of what I want to accomplish during this month, so be prepared for an update on my progress in this area also.

So, I think I've covered all the important areas for the moment.

Cheers, Meg
