Moving Soon...

This summer we made an offer on another house nearby and have spent the past 45 or so days "patiently" waiting for the deal to close.  Sometime in the next couple of days we will have keys and start our move.  One thing I am looking forward to is being able to set up my studio in a small room all by itself, so there will be no distractions of ringing phones, people walking through, etc.  I have been very anxious to get everything set up.  It's been especially hard the past couple of weeks as I packed almost all of my books away, so getting them organized in the new book shelves we bought will be such a joy.  I do feel as though I haven't been able to focus on my students nearly as much, but at the same time, it's been nice allowing the lessons to just be what they've needed to be without too much pre-planning and worrying about what does or doesn't get covered.  Hopefully I can strike a balance somewhere in between.  I should have things out an organized just in time to look over Christmas music.  They enjoyed that last year, and it will be fun to see what level of book they're ready for now!  (Wow, it's sure scary talking of Christmas already!)  So next time I post, it should be from a new home, and I my focus can get on to other things....
