A Sigh of Accomplishment

I just had a big sigh of accomplishment which equals relief for me.

I started my morning off GREAT seeing my girlfriend Becca.  It got even better when she called me shortly after that!  Can't wait for our double date.

Today was nice and steady at work.  I love looking up and thinking "holy crap, where'd the day go?"  I am busy, busy, busy and love it.  Sitting there listening to XM satellite radio working away.......love, love, love it.

This evening has been nice too.  I made Rusty homemade lasagna and he played a PS3 game called "Heavy Rain" that is pretty awesome.  You get to choose your reaction to situations and the whole story changes based on your choice.  It's almost like those books you used to read and it said "if you choose 1 go to page 153, if you choose 2 go to page 345", ya know?  While he did that I studied my CGL book for about an hour.   I really need to bust my booty and finish it by Monday that way I can start on one of the other two.

I had my first recital last week and let me tell you that if you are shaking while your bow hits your violin strings it makes a shaking note!!  The parents were impressed that I could read music and play after only 7 lessons.  I practiced tonight and have started playing 8th notes as well.  I struggled with it for a bit but Sunday it just clicked.  Even Rusty said it was crazy that I can read the notes and stuff.  It hasn't been easy but it's getting easier.  I can't wait for my next recital.  Hopefully I won't be so nervous.  I didn't want to stop practicing tonight but I wanted to blog and then get to bed.  At the moment I am also watching Mike Rowe on Dirty Jobs as he castrates sheep with his TEETH!  Ugh!  I love Mike Rowe!

Goodnight to my friends and family!

(Special shout out to Aubrey, Becca, Renee, Mom, and Gene!)
