NATS competition tonight! I'm singing at 9PM. Wish me luck please or to break a leg or toi toi toi...whatever you prefer!

I'm singing...

Torna di Tito from La Clemenza di Tito by Mozart
So Pretty by Bernstein
Gretchen am Spinnrade by Schubert

Should be fun! :-)

I'm pregnant!! That's right; Erik and I are going to be parents! :-) I had my first appointment yesterday, and we heard the heart beat right away. It was so cool! :-) They said once you’ve heard the heart beat the risk of a miscarriage drops to only 5%. So, I just had to share with all of you our excitement. We couldn’t wait to share any longer ( Read more... )

I'm probably missing a couple things too. My life is over as I know it, OR I need to get a second opinion! I had troubles yesterday too. It is so weird. I have never had this much trouble with my tummy (except for ( Read more... )

So I had some 24 hour virus where my stomache/intestines HATED me. It was AWFUL. I woke up this morning from a phone call of a friend checking up on me, and I actually felt much better. I got around, ate breakfast and darn...I'm feeling a bit lowsy again. WHY?? Oh well...gotta suck it up and go observe Allison teaching Kindermusik. I observe her ( Read more... )

My last post was in January. Well done to me! Brief update:

* Teaching Kindermusik Thursday and Saturday mornings. It's going pretty well, but I don't think it's something I really want to be doing with my life long term.
* Erik and I are happy as ever!
* I have a vocal competition (NATS) on Friday the 30th. 
* Arbonne is slammin'! We're back to doing ( Read more... )

I was doing so well and updating pretty regularly and then not so much...

I'll start where I last left off. The Christmas Vaca in Indiana. It was really nice to see everyone, and I mean everyone. We saw a lot of my family (everyone, but the Mills' - Alex got stuck in CO and Billy rarely visits), Erik's immediate family, our friends we missed and we ( Read more... )

The update is something I forgot to mention when it happened. It was such a blessing. One of our interim choir directors at Church decided to take the choir director position on a more full time basis. I'm off the hook! Which I ended up being quite thankful for. After my interview process (which was hell on earth) I was really scared I wasn't going ( Read more... )

So, remember the plan?

"The plan is; if she can't do it we are going to take that as God dropping a huge piano on our heads and telling me to do this!"

I've been hit by a piano, I guess. I will be a Kindermusik teacher for one semester. That won't be too huge of a commitment, and if I end up loving it they will always let me continue. So, there ya ( Read more... )

I spoke with Allison, the girl who was actively "courting" me w/o my knowledge to see if I would be the great Kindermusik teacher that she thought I would be! ;-) I passed those tests, obviuosly! ;-) That's how I'm in this dilemma, remember? Anyways, it seems they have a woman who was looking to work with them awhile back, but coulnd't take the job ( Read more... )

I have been offered a job with Kindermusic. What is Kindermusic you ask (and you may already know)? Click here for a lil' info: http://www.kindermusik.com/parents/about.asp OR here's a lil' blurb from it: In a Kindermusik class, educators lead a group of parents and their children through joyful activities, using music and movement. Parents learn ( Read more... )
