drum, drum, drumming...

Just letting you'all know that I'll be drumming in the St. George's Festival on April 24, 2010 in Staten Island. Belly Groove, our band, is playing for Manhattan Tribal!

How cool is that!

Please come out and support us!

Lazy Saturday

So today...I did a lot of nothing =) That hardly ever comes out of my mouth!! I'd say I got about 12+ hrs of sleep...something I haven't had the luxury of in a few weeks...followed by a lovely breakfast of cheese grits, over easy eggs and bacon...with a side of coffee. Then I read a little of my book...watched a few movies...made some jewelry...and now I'm about to go read a little more...then off to bed with me =)

It's nice to recharge the battery once in a while.

Hope you had a fantastic day!

Honestly!

Where does the time go?

I swear I just sat down at this computer...well...maybe it was an hour and a half ago, but it's felt like 10 minutes!

This seems to be the theme of the week...well month...I mean...come on...it's March already! I remember it just being Christmas and New Year's and today it was 50 degrees! It's so true what they say...the older you get, the quicker time passes. Remember being a kid, and thinking that summer would NEVER get here! Ha! That's a thing of the past.

So I have to say...I'm loving Manager Tools...brought to my attention by Brad after my drum class on Sunday. At first, I was a little skeptical. It's a series of podcasts and a blog on management tips. It has a very structured format and after listening to a half dozen or so over the past 3 days...I have to say that I am digging it. I'm actually read a few management books right now...and they all have a different flavor, but I have noticed that they converge...which is great! It means there are many different paths, that could result in positive productive behavior...so here's to hoping *keeping fingers crossed*.

In any case, I'll have a plan soon. I went to a business volunteers of the arts meeting at the Arts and Business Council on Monday...and met some lovely ladies from DB that specialize in management training, team building and development plans...all things that I need to work on. So I had a coaching session today, for an hour and I should start to lay out my plan after I get some feedback on Friday.

It's just funny how things interconnect, despite them not having any similarities.
