Just a quick post....as I'm trying to get better at writing more often! I'm in Dayton, OH right now to do some recording for a friend's album thursday and friday and then I'll be playing at the Dayton Celtic Festival on Saturday and Sunday! Whew...it's going to be a long, but really fun rest of the week!
Even better? My friend Sheila just had a daughter, Emma Grace, about two weeks ago and I'll get to see her this weekend! I can't wait to see the little munchkin...but that reminds me...I still need to get a baby gift!
Anyhooo.....I'd best get going...I need to figure out what tunes I'm supposed to play on tomorrow :)
Keep on keepin' on!

Hmmmm....
I thought I would try to be better about posting, but apparently I'm just not!
I've been back from buffalo for about three weeks now and sooooo many things have happened:
1) I got a job with the Art Institute of Atlanta...to start in October of THIS year (I'll mainly be teaching classes on fridays/saturdays...etc)
So starting in October, I will be in three states EVERY week....I think I'm crazy, but at least the money will be good!
2) I played at the Grandfather Mountain Highland Games a few weeks ago and will post pics soon! I had a great weekend, met some awesome new people, and overall just had a lot of fun! It rained out our last set on Sunday, but that was alright...as I had to get back to Nashville anyways!
For more info, I will be blogging on the goddess blogs about my fun time...there were lots of men in kilts!!!
3) My husband and I celebrated our one-year anniversary a few days ago (July 22nd)!!!! We had a wonderful day--very leisurely and finished it off with a yummy trip to the Melting Pot (fondue restaurant)....there were a dozen roses waiting for me on the table--it was so beautiful!! (And the food was great too!)
All in all...everything is going pretty good right now. My parents are doing ok...well, Dad is being dad and has his good days and bad...but he's hanging on.
Oh yesh, and I thought I had played my last Blair band gig at Grandfather Mountain, but apparently I'm on for at least one more! We're off to Raleigh-Durham, NC on August 4th....hopefully it'll be good times!!!
So that's about it methinks. Life has it's ups and downs, but hopefully there will be more ups than downs in the near future!!

Planes, Trains, and well...just planes...
So I'm off tomorrow morning at the butt-crack of dawn to catch a plane home to Buffalo, NY to visit the parents for a week. I'm looking forward to seeing lots of people while I'm there!
And now, onwards to the good news updates!
I've just signed the contracts to play full time (well, once a week rehearsal plus the concerts) as the Principal second violinist in the Bowling Green Western Symphony Orchestra. I'll also be teaching in the pre-college department at Western Kentucky University (which the BGWSO is a part of).
I may have another possible job in the works...though I'm unsure of when I might start. I'm hoping it will happen as the extra money will be a godsend!
So keep your fingers crossed for me :)
