Wait! Is that...?
An accordion? Yes! Look at the big smile it brought to Papa's face!
In fact, we had a whole band set up! That's Bridgett on keyboard, Fred on accordion, and Matt on the zen drum. They were so much fun! They'd never practiced as a group before, but still sounded wonderful! I especially loved their version of O Little Town of Bethlehem in triple meter. So jazzy!
Just getting back to practicing my flute (E flat major scale stinks on that thing!). Half way through finals! Unfortunately, I've caught some icky bug that makes me just sick enough to feel bad but not sick enough to skip anything. (Unlike last year when I had the stomach flu during juries! Ew!)
By God's grace, I made it through my sight-reading jury, my piano jury, my written theory final, my ear training final, and my sight-singing final all while feeling under the weather. Thankfully I have today and tomorrow to rest and STUDY at home before my last four finals Friday and Monday. (Monday is the music history biggie!)
I'm enjoying this respite so much! Hope you're able to rest in the busyness of the season, too.
That's all, folks!
An accordion for Papa! How cool was that! Would love to be a toe-tapping fly on the wall for this one. =)
ReplyDeleteRest, rest, rest, and be READY on Monday! I was just telling Kelly I'll be so glad when you're finished with that class. :/
Your house looks so beautiful! I love it!
ReplyDeleteFeel better ASAP!
And wasn't I invited to this party? I'm pretty sure I'm supposed to be an honorary guest at any and ever Mitchell function. ;P
ReplyDeleteI want to hear you play flute! I still have mine, so there's a chance I can get some noise out of that as well :)
ReplyDeleteP.S. In case you don't remember, I am also known as Mrs. Linduff :)
ReplyDeleteNona,
ReplyDeleteYes, I remember your name pre-grandchildren. :) And I'm not too sorry to say that I turned in my flute this morning! I wouldn't mind playing with you; I'm just so happy not to have the pressure of grades anymore!
