La Bene Vita
I am a professional musician  Open in new Window., worship leader  Open in new Window., small business owner  Open in new Window., songwriter  Open in new Window., aspiring author  Open in new Window. and freelance nonfiction writer  Open in new Window. with a chemical engineering degree  Open in new Window..

But that's just my resume.

My profile of qualifications is only one of the ways in which I am unique. Here I chronicle my personal and professional goals and my efforts to achieve them. Occasionally I fail. Mostly, I take daily baby steps toward all my long-term goals. Much like the stories I pen, the songs I compose, and the businesses I run, I am always a work in progress.

Just two or three short months ago, Michelle Tuesday Music School  Open in new Window. posts on Facebook reached up to, and sometimes more than, 200 users, according to FB's own statistics reporting. Posts in the last month have barely cleared 50 reached users.

I suppose it could be seasonal, but I've noticed changes elsewhere, too. More...  Open in new Window.

I am a lean, mean, forum-updatin' machine who likes... shiny...

...thanks to my now officially diagnosed and fully treatable adult ADHD. Doc has started me on a low-ish dose of meds, and it works very well until about 3pm. I can tell it's worn off because I start randomly clicking tabs and windows and icons or flipping through Android apps wondering what the heck I was just doing, what I'm supposed to be doing, and what I just did. But 7am-3pm are wonderfully focused and productive, and I'll take the improvement.

Most of my readers know about "October Novel Prep ChallengeOpen in new Window. [13+], which is exciting, rewarding, and exceedingly time-consuming, in part because of my leadership, and in part because of my participation. Hey, have you guys been watching Revolution? Is it everything you expected? How about the new season of Big Bang.

*checks clock* *Blush* Sorry. It's nearly 7pm. Meds = completely gone. This is why I generally use section headers in my blog posts - more for my own organization than yours.

Praise Team
I unloaded on the praise band and choir about their attendance and commitment level today. I got lots o' sympathy and apologies, so that's good. I still feel like we didn't learn the parts well enough for our big 10-Year Anniversary tomorrow. What'r'ya gonna do? Sing louder, I suppose.

Gigs
If you don't know, the Mexican restaurant I played every Wednesday night laid me off after about a year of playing there. So no regular gig right now. I need to find a new one of those.

MTMS
Keeps chugging, mostly without me this past week. Thank God for loyal employees, because even without my regular attendance, we've cleared 280 students. We're going *Up* again, which is the RIGHT DIRECTION. I have a big, long to-do list to catch up on at work. Some of the tasks, I'll do. Some will get deleted in about a year when I decide, eh, if I haven't done it yet, is it really important?

Family
Just me 'n Sammy tonight. The boy and his two kids are all hanging out with their friends tonight. Ahhhhh...

Writing
I suppose I have a Contest Round entry to go write. Too-da-loo!
