Nothing like a good laugh after a difficult time.

Ave

The pain of loss for a loved one who knows Christ is lessened as I live in hope of seeing the one I love again.

Achievement. Attribute.

ACHIEVEMENT- having worked on my goals and made them a reality.

ATTRIBUTE- Render all my glories to Him.


I now have three voice students, three performance and three months 'til the performances are over. I teach privately and also for R & M Music Studios. Performances will be with Haddonfield and Southampton Choirs combine for the "Messiah". I am a soloist in the PBU Chamber choir singing the "Magnificat" by Stanford . And I perform with "Les Three", a group of 21st century composers including Ron Thomas and Matt Monticchio. Look at the following website to get an idea of the music I have and will be performing with "Les Three":

SOLI DEO GLORIA

Something to think about...

"Because we live in a fallen world, we are not born into connection. It has to be gained, and it is an arduous, developmental process. Without going through that process of bonding, we are doomed to alienation and isolation. not only do we not grow, we deteriorate.

Physicists have a graphic way of describing this situation. They call it the law of entropy. According to this law, in a closed system such as our universe, the available energy is gradually being used up. As available energy decreases, disorder increases. Without energy from the outside, our universe will become 'running down' because of this law. The sun, and many other stars that fill the universe, will eventually, one after the other, cool down to dark masses, their energy scattered throughout space, no longer available. They will have reached what physicists call 'maximum entropy.'

In the psychological and spiritual spheres, this law operates dramatically. If a person in left alone, her world will become more and more chaotic. She will reach maximum entropy."

Baby Shower


That baby was so happy, and this baby shower wasn't even for HIM! My wonderful friend of Five years, whose wedding I was in as a bridesmaid, will be having her first baby next month. I am so happy for the new parents!

Valentines

I made Valentine's muffins :-)

Dog Sitting




Dog sitting last week was nothing less than interesting.
Job number one: pick up the dog at doggie day care.
Walking in like I knew what I was doing, I met other dog lovers dropping off their delightful balls of fur. I cocked my head to a women next to me, "So.....is your Labrador full bred?".
After breaking the ice by what seemed like an intelligent question about dogs, I pick up my temporary dachshund, in a doggie bag, and scooted out the day care. Barking dogs said their farewells, or at least that is all I made out.

Job two: take her for a walk.
Scoping the landscape, the 15 pound dog with her little pink coat couldn't get enough of the good ol' earth. Friends passed saying, "Didn't know it was legal to put a squirrel on a leash?" "Funny." I said. We kept walking. The view was amazing as the sun set that afternoon.
