Pre Maritime Tension

It has been one of those weeks when we have had to remind ourselves of this quote:

"Don't say you don't have enough time. You have exactly the same number of hours per day that were given to Helen Keller, Pasteur, Michaelangelo, Mother Teresea, Leonardo da Vinci, Thomas Jefferson, and Albert Einstein."
H.Jackson Brown Jnr

There has been such a lot going on that my posts here have been neglected.
However, it will be of benefit to you all, as some of that time has been spent finalising the next CD to be released, which I'm very pleased about.
More of that to follow over the next few weeks.
So keep checking in, it will be worth it!

Another reason for extra demands on my time are various family commitments.
I shall cover some of those issues shortly, as I cope with being the 'wife of an absent musician' during a particularly difficult week to come.
There have also been many jobs which required my time but are too tedious to mention.

But for now, my priority is washing, ironing and packing for a trip which starts tomorrow....
As we have been so busy, I haven't actually done anything in preparation, so I can only hope most of the clothes Robin needs are actually clean.
I've got as far as writing a list, so that I can feel a sense of achievement as I cross each thing off.
I'm easily pleased...
I shall now go and brace myself for the next few weeks to come.

Be Inspired in 2008

As 2007 draws to a close, many of you will be reflecting on the year, and thinking about ways to change your lives in 2008.
So, I have found a couple of quotes, that hopefully will inspire everyone to fulfill their resolutions:

"Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal; nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude."
Thomas Jefferson

and,

"Simply seek happiness, and you are not likely to find it. Seek to create and love without regard to your happiness, and you will likely be happy much of the time."
Dr.M.Scott Peck - American psychiatrist.

We have an exciting, and challenging, year ahead.
Exciting in that there are a lot of projects underway, which will be revealed as the year goes on, but challenging as we face long periods of time apart, with Robin travelling to far flung places.
You'll have to keep checking in to find out where he is, and what he is up to, but for now, we wish you all a very happy and healthy New Year.
