      Gina was here bright and early again today with a car full of sleeping children, a new string on her viola, and a smile on her face ready for another full and hectic day.  Again I practiced alone for the first hour, and then studied Spanish for an hour while she heard more auditions.  The hour we spent practicing together was pretty good, but we still have work to do.  It is a little stressful since playing the difficult passages well is so subjective and unpredictable.  True artists spend hours and hours daily to reach perfection and must learn how to overcome fatigue and inconsistency! 

The four kids brought breakfast with them to eat after waking and then passed the time taunting each other as kids tend to do and playing outside.  We cut the time getting back pretty close again and I was a little late.   Fatigue is starting to show in my countenance but she can’t practice tomorrow, so I will have a little time to exercise and catch up!

Have a great Friday tomorrow.  Wow, January has nearly melted away already.  Love you and Good Night!
