Ahhh! What a fantastic day, already.  

  
 I relaxed, played with the dogs, explored my new Staff Pad music program on my new Surface Pro 3 tablet, and just finished a fantastic lesson with a student preparing for a professional musical theater audition tomorrow. She made this day all the more exciting due to such tremendous progress these past few weeks.
It’s a low key weekend with nothing on the docket: no winter guard or indoor percussion competitions, and hopefully just creative hours spent writing, and composing.
Sending out tremendous prayers, and heartfelt love to a darling lady who lost her husband in the wee hours of the morning. Know you are loved, Maribeth Crowe….
