I don't know how I am, or what I am going through. I am confused about some things right now and the one thing that never confuses me is MUSIC.  At least it pays attention to what I do and feel as I play my pieces on the piano and violin.   Oh, boo hoo to life.... :'(     :(

I am feeling better today.  Had a good nights' sleep (finally!).   This past week has been tense for some reason.  Anyhow, I may have a new student, a beginner, starting next week.
So hopefully the parent will contact me to make further arrangements.....oh, I really need
more students and it is happening.....yeah!     ;D

I have had a busy and stressful weekend in my personal life.  The internet has been busy, trying to get an ISP canceled and business taken care of with some other issues.  Anyhow, I feel tired right now, and it's still raining outside(for two weeks) and I long for the sun to come out.

And , my mind, isn't in the mood to deal with anything much today, have 4 students to teach and practice piano and violin....I don't know how I will get through this day though....probably through sheer will power.    :-\    argh!

But then, with all the crises in the banks, how come the BNP did OK when those initials stand for the Banque National de Paris? And did the LibDems get "pipped" at the (non-first-past-the) post because they're orange? - and the New Old Labour lot get trounced because they're as much in the Red as they've gotten most of the rest of us? Ravel once famously said that he liked jazz beacause it's blue and you don't care; perhaps the same may be said of the UK Tory party...

Indeed so! Sounds as though there's yet another reason for you to go live in an apartment of your own, does it not? Your post reminds me of the old days when the now profoundly discredited UK financial services regulator was in its previous incarnation as the Personal Investment Authority, whose initials were shared with Pakistani International Airways; that said, the present one shares its not only with the Food Standards Agency (another government regulator of sorts) but also with the quantily termed (and even more bizarrely though up) Foundation for Sport and the Arts, from which coincidences one might be tempted to conclude that the banking crisis is synonymous with the baking crisis, the baulking crisis and the booking crisis if one allows for the instance of breadmaking, snooker and event ticketing into this unholy trinity of FSAs...

My ears were not good yesterday with buzzing ,  probably had tinnitus, due to stress and fatigue. 
Anyhow, all next week, I take a break from teaching my students, and work on my
music mostly.  I look forward in doing nothing also.  Sometimes I feel this pressure that I have
to do something all the time, and I need to relax and enjoy things more; and take it easy.

{Thanks, cai, for asking me about my ears in chat today.  You are most thoughtful and I appreciate that.  And it was good to see tds  yesterday, too. (cai and I were happy about that!) }

The sun is out and today will be a good day....... :)
