Slogan: Doing The Work Reaps Rewards

Hye folks,
My, what a busy week. I have been really good and doing my practices everyday. Sometimes I've had to keep it right to the amount of time I had allotted for that day, my mind is tumbling in all sorts of directions. But, it seems to help get my head back on track and think more logically about what I have to do and keep going till I get more done than I probly would have. This is something that has been noticeable for quite a while now.

I did something with music sheets that I can't talk about here, if anyone finds out it could be hurtful. But I need to say that it tooks me two days and I completed the exercise.

On May 25th there was a group lesson at Christine's place. We learned new exercie pieces and wrote out our own on sheet music. It was a hard and (for me) sloppy exercise. Then we had a chance to learn Mull o Kintyre by Paul McCartney and it sounds lovely on the harp, even in learning- and- practicing- with- lots- of-mistakes progress. It was a really enjoyable time and we brought bagged lunches that we sat round the table and ate later; there was good chatting, good laffing, too. The drive was good and the weather was comfortable to drive in also. I am glad that I have been doing some daily practice so that I could sit down and be part of things as smoothl as it gets for me.

I really want to get better at the music for next month. We are supposed to bring it back and work on it some more, this is great, its like a structured session with expectations of getting better on what we've learned instead of just going onto new music like the old is part of the past and has no importance.

I have to go think about doing something less fun, so I'm out of here for now.

Cheers, Meg :)
