The Art of Determination

Determination.
I learned that today when I sat down at the piano. I started off strong, playing through the part of the piece that I already know.
Then I got to the part that I don't know. This is what determination is. I had to literally force myself to stay sitting at the piano to get through what I needed to get through today. But I did it! I feel as though I had a thorough and efficient practice time today, especially considering the craziness of my day.
I did not, however, have any time to work out. I practiced piano in the time I would have worked out, because that's a little higher on my priority list....just sayin.
BUT I ran around enough at work to make it a workout. I think my feet are going to be strong because of how much they always hurt after work. :P
Tomorrow is going to be an epic day. Good and bad.
To start things off, Chris and I start the paper route in an hour and a half. We'll probably be done by 6 am. Then I'll hit the shower and do my hair. Then head straight to work at 930.
And...then I'll get off at 1:00 AM.
Yes, you read correctly. I am working a 15 hour shift. That's how insane my life is. Bahh.
So, then, in every piece of music, there is an accidental. In every painting, there is a negative side, even if it is not painted.
Ladies and gentlemen, tomorrow is my accidental.
It will be difficult, and, like accidentals, may be annoying at the time, but in the end, the whole piece of music that is my life will be brilliant.
[in other words, my paycheck is going to be bomb.]
So, here's to adding another piece of my painting that is my life!
Tomorrow, I learn the art of stamina.
