Here I am contemplating all of this, how things have been turning out after my whirlwind of a year. I want to take this moment to contemplate all that I have gained or maintained despite what I have lost. What I am thankful for:
- I did not cut off my whole finger a few weeks ago. That would have been highly detrimental to my career.
- I have a place to live that I can afford and I have great housemates.
- I am actually doing what I want to do - I have 17 students and regardless of their wide spectrum of work ethics, I love them all.
- I am able to make music on a daily basis, mostly with people that I enjoy making music with. I am lucky to be in the collegiate environment, where I have many opportunities to play.
- My family of course; they still love me.
- My friends; they still love me.
- My health. I know I have to treat myself better. I want to. I am just lazy.
- You.
Speaking of....time to get back to the cozy laze that I want to succumb to today before I get to make a sweet potato casserole and a corn casserole. Photos forthcoming.
