Thurs, Fri, Sat, Sun, Mon!

I had to take 5 days off. This will be considered my summer vacation. I had some personal and business things to take care of that were extremely important. Plus I was a little sick on a few of those days. I am starting to feel better thank goodness! Yesterday I did practice for about 25 minutes in between students! Today I will return to my routine! Yeah!
Plus, Friday was our 11the wedding anniversary! Can't believe its already been 11 years!! We went to El Callejon's for dinner up in San Marcos. It is an awesome Restaurnat! Highly recommend them!

Wed, 1 hour of Practice!

got my technique in! Not a full practice but at least an hour!

Tuesday, 2 hours of Practice!

This was a difficult night to practice. I was so tired. I had orchestra class tonight and lessons afterwards. It was a great class but I started to loose steam about 9pm. I started practicing at 11:15 and ended at 1:15am. When I am tired my muscles don't work as good and don't respond quick enough. I hope Wed's practice will be better! When I'm tired and don't feel like practicing I always say to myself you don't have time to lose, stay focused and remember the light at the end of the tunnel. I always feel so good when I practice!!

Monday, 2 hours of Practice!

It was a great practice day! The Winter is really getting better and the Scherzo Tarantella! The Rondo needs the most work.
Looking forward to tomorrows practice!

Saturday, 2 hours of Practice!

I didn't get to do all my technical studies today mostly scales. I tried to get through all my pieces tonight and I did! I'm feeling improvement with my bow arm. My up bow double staccato is actually starting to improve now on the Rondo Capricciosso. I was starting to think it was my bows problem but now I see that it was me and I just needed time and more practice on it. Its paying off!

I think the Winter is now almost ready to be preformed. I need a little more work on the 2nd and 3rd movements.

I love to practice! It is so rewarding and wonderful to be working on a goal!!

Friday, No practice!

I might have put in about 30 minutes of scales today. I spent the day with my daughter doing things with her. It was a good day!

Thursday, 2 hours of Practice!

Yeah! I got back to my 2 hours! It felt so good to practice like that. I did all my scales. I started on page for of Schradieck this time and went to page 10. I got through all my pieces; Rondo and Capricciosso , Winter, and Scherzo Tarantella!
I got a lot done today!
