The end of a dream

Sadly, I have let go of one of my dreams. I saw a quote once that said if you keep swinging at the same ball over and over and over, stop swinging. And that’s what I’m going to do! I can’t blame anyone else- I don’t have the resources right now to make it happen so instead of spinning my wheels, I need to back away from it for now.

I have prioritized what is important to me, what will benefit me and the ones I love, and it is no longer a priority. I have to focus on being the best Mama I can to my 16 year old, he’s starting a new high school and is totally bummed about it, and I also have to focus on my new year of school. Double the courseload in the same amount of time. When I look at my list of must-do’s, music is not on the list. Poetry is, as is my book, readings, etc. But the cd, as much as I want it, is not going to happen.

I have to look at the bright side: I have released 3 cd’s. I’ve received numerous nominations and won awards for my songwriting. People will always be able to buy my music on ITUNES. How many people can say that? :-)

Anyway, I’m looking forward to a busy week with the start of school and Labor Day weekend. We have to put some stuff on the grill this weekend because before you know it, it’ll be winter and the snow will be here!
