No Time to Say Hello, Goodbye, I'm late, I'm late, I'm late

Oh my goodness I'm busy. The days are so long they sort of all blend together and I have to stop and think really hard if it's still Monday or did I actually stop to sleep and now it's Tuesday....

It's concert time. I have the production of the Coconutcracker at one school; the production of "Bear Stays Up for Christmas" with another; I'm doing the music for the Waimea Chorus concert; I'm preparing the third school violin students for their Santa Lucia performance, but I won't be able to attend myself because I'll be accompanying the "Bear Stays up for Christmas" concert scheduled the same night; I'm starting up a quartet for four of my middle school string/piano students; and I'm teaching 85 private students all in between.

I keep waiting for the inevitable straw that is going to break this camel's back....

But I cannot complain. This is such a blessing. And the enthusiasm and joy my students bring me every day just keeps me chugging right along in rhythm.
