..and yet I am up at 11 PM to write this.  It's been a long couple of weeks, especially today.  Began the day with a parent yelling at me on the phone because she had done me the FAVOR of bringing back a school cello she had at her house for a YEAR, and I called because it was broken and I wanted money to repair it, ended it with a kid writing "F ( Read more... )

Wow, I really don't post much anymore! I can only imagine what it's going to be like when I go back to work, which is in a week in a half! I have mixed feelings about it, part of me is ready, I like my job and I love my kids (went to the concert the other week and got mobbed "Mrs. Duncan!!! We miss you!! When are you coming back???" - it's nice to ( Read more... )

While I can't find a clip of "A Musicological Journey through the Twelve days of Christmas" that Jill and I enjoyed the other night, this is a chamber group at Indiana U that is pretty darn good. Enjoy, and Merry Christmas!
