The Piano Christmas Gathering last night was so much fun! About half my students and their parents came over to my house and we had a fun time eating cookies and sharing Christmas music. It's always great for me to see all my students in one place - and to watch them show off their hard work. It's times like those when I'm reminded how much I love teaching piano. It definitely has its frustrating days (like any job!), but I am so thankful for the opportunity to share and teach kids about something I love so much :)
Tonight is the DSO!!! I have always wanted to go to the DSO so I am super excited! Listening to/watching orchestras is very entertaining for the classical music nerd in me :) I am equally excited to go to Benihana for dinner!
I started wrapping some gifts last night. After everyone had gone home and I had changed into my sweatpants :) The fire was going and an old black and white Christmas movie was playing on the TV. I love moments like that.
The basement in which I live is a disaster. Especially my bedroom. I've been so in-and-out lately that things are getting a little crazier than I'd like... Since I moved back into this house 15 months ago, I've been treating it like it was a temporary living space (a ton of my brother's stuff is still in the bedroom!) But I think the time has come for me to just suck it up and treat the space like it's permanent. I've been trying to establish an organizational system for my piano music and teaching materials other than piles on the floor! Also my desk chair is still broken. I ordered a replacement part for it but cannot for the life of me figure out how to fix it. Steve-o is coming over on Monday so maybe he will have some insight. Sigh...it would be really nice to leave on vacation and come back to a clean and orderly basement. We shall see how I do this week...
By the way...I am SOOOO excited for our trip! TravelBuddy and I are getting pedicures this week so my feet are sandal-ready! Average temps in PR right now are in the 80s!!!
