Today is my last day to work this week. Hurrah! Maybe I will be able to get some quality practice time in during this holiday break. I hosted a wedding shower on Sunday and have lots of family coming to my house for Thanksgiving, so I've been super busy with non musical things. I also haven't been able to find time to make it to the gym - how grim! It seems like I am always on a forced march this time of the year and don't get to do the things that I love. Not that I don't love my family, but it takes much wine to get through Thanksgiving day with all of them in my home.

At church orchestra practice this past week we received two pieces for a string quartet. My first ensemble experience! They are just easy Christmas carols, but I really do want to play chamber music, so this is a start. I will be the second violinist - the first is a professional, so I'm hoping his vibrato will cover any intonation problems I may have.

Happy Thanksgiving to all who frequent violinist.com.
