A few years ago, one of my student’s parents was commenting about someone she knew. She said, “You know how artsy people are? Well, she’s an artsy type. No offense. “ I smiled and nodded, but inwardly- I was thinking- Huh? No offense? What did she mean by ‘no offense‘? I’d been called many thingsContinue reading “Us “Artsy” types..”

Wine and dogs 1. Exercise 0.
Sooooo I started the current virus quarantine thinking- Wow, I’ve got extra time to actually get a workout in after 5am for a change! What I didn’t reaaaallly think through was the fact that I also had more time for other things. Like eating. Drinking. Watching Netflix in yoga pants until my butt made aContinue reading “Wine and dogs 1. Exercise 0.”
Social Distancing Cocktail Club
Due to the recent virus, many of my students bailed on their lessons yesterday (even the ones who Skype- really??). I found I had been suddenly blessed with even more time on my hands than usual. I know- one would think practicing would be the first thing a musician with extra time would think ofContinue reading “Social Distancing Cocktail Club”
Walking with Dogs..
This morning, I’d hoped to sleep in a little. My fellow pet owners out there can appreciate the fact that this, of course, rarely happens. Our furballs have a tight schedule to keep, and they have no concept of the occasional joy that comes from an additional 15 minutes of rest. Lilly, our 3 yrContinue reading “Walking with Dogs..”
“Blursday, the Fortyteenth of Maprilay”
Have you ever completely lost track of the day/date/time? The ‘Rona’ as my friends are calling it, has everyone working in their yards, communicating with their kids, drinking with buddies via Skype (try it- it’s awesome), baking bread, binging Netflix shows like Tiger King and the third season of Ozark…. basically doing anything to fillContinue reading ““Blursday, the Fortyteenth of Maprilay””
Virtual Happy Hour
Last night I attended my first virtual happy hour. I chose beer instead of wine- which is always more sensible in my case. After 2 beers, I might be a bit cheeky- but after 2 glasses of wine? Let’s just say I don’t need that on social media. I’ve always been a happy person. IContinue reading “Virtual Happy Hour”
Introduce Myself?..
Sooooo I’m a bellydancing southern harpist who enjoys alcohol and loves dogs. Why did I start this? Because Covid-19 had me housebound and worrying about life in general, when I suddenly realized- I was stuck at home with everything I’m passionate about. I’ll be 20 lbs heavier when the pandemic passes, but I’ll be reaaaalllyContinue reading “Introduce Myself?..”
Remote working ..
Today, I worked from home with Motown blaring in the background as I sifted through spreadsheets. I wondered if this pandemic business would last forever and found myself pondering whether or not I should get that masters in enthnomusicology for the 100th time or get a bartending license. Here’s the deal – I don’t wantContinue reading “Remote working ..”
