Slogan: Doing The Work Reaps Rewards

Today I am not in a mood to be doing anything. I have no energy and less ambition, but for some reason I was able to go to the music and work away at it for about an hour nearly. I could tell that my thinking was not strong for being terribly productive, but still if I was there and wanted to do any work at all, lets go for it.

I began with Wisteria and Westminster Bells, both a couple of times thru for a short warm up. Then I started working on something that was just sitting on the music stand, with my mind on a different piece, that was interesting to discover that it didn't sound like anything and in the wrong tempo. What a hoot. Finally, I pulled out the Christ Child's Lullabye and went to work on it over and over and over. Searching For Lambs got a workout afterwards and that was all I did really, just those two pieces for the rest of the hour and the two hand thing is coming more easily, still don't have a good replacement for the chord in the music that my harp doesn't have, but I'm still working on that, too.

At 7 PM when I was ready to quit I had done about an hour practice and it felt good, but still have to realize that I can't work too hard at night or I get overtired and can't sleep properly.

Cheers, Meg
