Two of my best friends are participating in events to raise money for great causes.
Kim is actually training for a marathon to raise money for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. Her goal is to raise $3,000 to help find a cure for those diseases. Click here to donate to Kim.
Sara is participating in the Susan G. Komen Foundation’s Race for the Cure which raises money for breast cancer research. Click here to donate to Sara.
I’m hoping to be able to donate to both of them.
If I could only tell you everything that’s been going on lately. You wouldn’t believe it. It’s 2 AM and I just finished helping my sister carry all the rest of her stuff into my mom’s dining room.
Sleep. Now.
Tonight we finished round 2 of my students’ piano recitals. Both nights went incredibly well, but I am so ready to have the rest of the week off. I don’t think I’ve taken a week off since Christmas. But all of my students did an amazing job, and, possibly more importantly, all the parents were very impressed. I finally caved in and played a piece on this year’s recital, so now all my parents know that I’m actually a competent musician and not just some kid who decided she would give this piano lessons thing a try. I suppose the fact that I have 35 students speaks some to that as well.
So no more work (until Monday). Laziness, here I come!
Awhile back Garrett and Julia gave me a fabulous idea for a domain name. It’s been floating around in my head for months now (maybe years). Now, at long last, here it is…a “real” site…all the Allea you can handle in a single location.
I’m trying out WordPress for now, but I want to try a couple of other things, too. I will, hopefully, have a theme other than the default soon…I’m just trying to find one I really like. And I’m trying to figure out what else I would like to have here: photo gallery, polls, whatever else. So if you have any requests or suggestions, feel free to lay them on me.
And you guys definitely need to be continually on my case about updating regularly. You know…make me get my money’s worth.
And FYI…I have the site set so I have to approve everyone’s first post (to cut down on potential comment spam), but after I approve one comment, you can post as many more as you want without waiting for approval. So post away!
