Yes, Mystique WON. Best of breed two days. A worthwhile trip. Back to playing... Very cool, WiseBuff -- what kind of dog is Mystique? Could you share a photo? Congratulations!

Bugger! I can't afford too many lapses like that - as I've gone a bit mad putting myself down for a Tchaikovsky piece, for which I seem to need to 'grow another hand' as Peter (I think it was 'im) put it, to add to my Chopin mazurka, and a joplin rag, which I'm sure to regret.

Big wine festival - business of course! 3 days home when I shall be glued to the keyboard because then I'm off again. Do I have to check in again or is this notice enough? Nov 15th to 21st. Even bigger wine festival in Mexico courtesy of International Food and Wine Society - business of course! Chances of getting that Chopin done by Xmas fading fast, maybe next year!

Had to cover a no-notice request help close down a satellite office and decided to tack-on a Thanksgiving visit to my son. No piano, no time, no regrets! Thanks! Piano is hard work from beginning to forever.

I have been so very good with my MOYD duties, I sit down and do something no matter how tired I am. Recently, I started a new job, along with keeping a shift at my old. I went from working 4 days a week to six a week - agck. And new schedule too - I went from working 6pm to 2am to 8am-5pm. Talk about culture shock! I also am taking a rather time consuming course, and I have managed to play something daily. My eyes may be half closed - but hey! Until Thanksgiving (Nov 28). I'm so mad! I was home, I had plenty of time, but I just didn't. The only thing I did was play a I and a V chord for BillyO. We were watching one of those Great Courses on music theory, and I did a demonstration. But I did not sit down down and play anything. I am back on the wagon, however.

I got home late and just didn't have it in me. The worst part is my lesson is tomorrow... I'll have to tell my instructor that I missed a day. I practiced extra tonight to make amends.

It was a big decision knowing I could not play piano at all during the event, but having crew experience I could not sit by and do nothing. So 4th - 7th Dec I was awol but back into my normal regime having lost nothing but gained a wonderful experience. Surprisingly easy, barely an inconvenience. Kawai K8 & Kawai Novus NV10 13x
