LIST IT, I can’t wait to get this house on the market. I painted for about 8 hours today and we will clean and stage the house tomorrow. It looks like the finish line is in sight.
The weather is gonna clear tomorrow. We still need to do a lot of outdoor jobs.
Weeding, staining, planting, mulching. mowing, and phooey!!
Can’t wait to get this thing listed.
We have been working like CRAZY to put the finishing touches on our house before we list it. The painting is almost complete. We are waiting for the weather to give us a break. It has been raining for about a week now. The rain broke just long enough for us to seed an area in the backyard, and mow the lawn.
The dogs are bored. They HATE the rain, so we bought them some chew toys from the dollar store and they are killed them almost instantly.
Summer is sweet!
Wow, I forgot what it was like to have time to hang out, work on the house. We are going to list our house soon so we are fixing it up. I don’t understand why I didn’t fix some of these things so we could enjoy them. Oh well!! We are hoping to make a profit off of this house. We have fixed it up!! We have fully fenced it, put new toilets in, a new laundry sink, painted just about every surface, trimmed the bedrooms upstairs, put a new shed in, landscaped, put in a lovely french door, and new faucets. The house was already pretty good. BUT it is looking amazing now.
We were recently in Rochester looking for a new place and it was amazing to drive through the different neighbourhoods. Some of them were so bad they were uncomfortable. However, there were some lovely places as well. We will post some of our favs at a later date. It is too early to do any shopping as of yet. Right now our focus is selling.
I have realized that it is time to create a study schedule to prepare for diagnostic tests and for score study for my new rep. I have to pass first and second year history and theory tests OR I will have RETAKE THOSE COURSES,..EW. I really do not want that to happen. I still have quite a bit of time so I am in good shape. I recently went to the library and got the first eight scores that I will need for next year.
It is getting quiet here in London. Many of our friends have returned home for the summer. I miss everyone!
Funny
Wow, what a great trip. I had a chance to go down to Rochester for to meet with my new teacher and watch some rehearsals. We stayed near the airport (we bid for a room on Priceline.com for our hotel rooms and got a great room at an unbelieveable price). I saw the Eastman Wind Ensemble rehearse: Festive Overture, Holst-1st Suite, Music for Prague, and more. I watched two rehearsals on day 2 of the trip Where the groups rehearsed Child’s Garden of Dreams, Radiant Joy, and much more.
I was assigned a portion of my repertoire for next year. I will be conducting: Scherzo alla Marcia, Zion, George Washington Bridge, Suite Francaise, Persichetti-Divertimento, Variations on America, Trauersinfonie, and Tocatta Marziale. I was told that this will probably less than half of the repertoire that I will be conducting next year. I am soooo excited. I had better get to work.
Long List of Summer projects include:
LOOKING FORWARD TO THE CONCERT ON MONDAY
