No Time to Blog!!

I think I'm maintaining the most boring blog on the net right now. Between my longer commute to work, my husband's recovery from a truck accident, and trying to get everything done for my master's degree to graduate in December...I'm losing it. Blogging doesn't strike me as a priority on most days.

I am reading a really good book that I think has life-changing potential. Several people at my workplace recommended it and I ran out and bought it pronto. It's called "Getting Things Done" by David Allen, a productivity author, consultant, and guru. I'm only through a few chapters, but I've started to incorporate some of his ideas and I'm just amazed so far. I can't wait to finish it. I highly recommend this one. The paperback version is just $13.50 at Barnes and Noble - http://search.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/isbnInquiry.asp?z=y&EAN=9780142000281&itm=2.

Switching gears to a completely unrelated topic, the trailer for the Harry Potter - Order of the Phoenix movie has been released! IGN.com has the trailer in several formats here: http://media.movies.ign.com/media/040/040689/vids_1.html. My husband and I are huge HP fans and we almost can't stand the wait between book and movie releases. Don't know what we'll do once the series is over...pray for Terry Goodkind's Sword of Truth series to be made into movies, I suppose.

Happy holidays if I haven't posted again by the end of December!!

Hello Cindy!!

My youngest step son and I love Harry Potter. He doesnt yet know about what happened to Sirius Black or Professor Dumbledore. I just cried and cried when I read about Dumbledore, then sent lots of ill wishes to Snape. I have re-read the books several times to absorb small details.

Just got back from the Georgia/Ga. Tech game, where we spanked those bees all the way back to North Avenue. Satterwhite isnt band director anymore. He got caught embezzling funds and screwing a graduate assistant, so he's not even spoken about at alumni day. Do you remember Hope Frost, one of my best friends?? She has a little boy who is 8 and she is still a music therapist. We played "Carry on My Wayward Son" by Kansas for pregame. It was alot better than playing "I got the music in me!!" Do you ever play your trumpet anymore??
