Looking Back Again

Round about a year ago, I was looking for a new job, a new place to live, and a new direction in my life. Now I have two jobs, a place to live, and enough direction to figure out where I should probably head from here. I'm probably going to sound like a broken record...

New Year, New Schedule

Once again, I find myself changing my blog schedule. I'll be posting my blogs on Tuesday, since my new schedule this year allows better writing time on that day. Speaking of new schedules, this past year has been full of changes for me. I went from one job to another,...

Practicing Your Scales

As a musician, it is good to practice scales. Play or sing the notes up and down, down and up, in all the keys. It can get boring and often you won't see what good it is doing you. But I promise it will make you a better musician. It will make a lot of things easier...

It’s Not Fair
