Happy Anniversary! Our 10th year

It’s amazing to realize that I started writing this blog 10 years ago this week!  The time has flown by.  I started to blog to get the word out about the Harp the Highlands and Islands trips.  And here we are, so much later, talking not only about the trips but also about becoming better harpers and learning stuff! 

Have you ever wondered how the trips came about?  Through serendipity of course!

Harp Room Bling

Sometimes you just need a little, visible nudge to remind you of what is important to you.  So this week - a downloadable poster. 

Print it out (up to 18 in x 24 in) and hang it up near your harp so you remember each time you sit.  To get your copy, head over to the website and let me know you would like to have it - leave me a comment and I'll get it to you!

If it was easy, it would be easy!

The more you practice something, the easier it becomes.  The more you practice something, the less you have to consciously think about it to make it happen. And that comes about through practice.

There are no short cuts.  If it was easy, it would be easy.  Now, go practice!  Learn more at the website.  See you there!

Better get moving – 10 steps to the holidays!

It’s nearly October (yikes!), the summer is over, the kids are back to school, the days are palpably shorter.  And you know what that means – the holidays are nearly here!

There are only 12 weeks to go – but you know that festivities will start in about six to eight week so there will be plenty of time to fit in all the parties, pageants, festivals, parades, celebrations, get-togethers, gift exchanges, as well as gatherings.  And each of those will be an opportunity to share one of your greatest gifts – your music
