Summer is over. Even though I’m on sabbatical, I’m in get-er-done mode. These next seventeen weeks will fly by, especially with a some vacation days, the NATS Central Region conference, Spencer’s cabaret in NYC, and two different NASM visits.
So I have set out a daily schedule that I hope will help me not come up in January with not much to show for the leave from teaching. I’m developing a new course over the next few months — truly the first time I’ve developed a course from scratch — and also finishing up a research project I started more then a decade ago.
Each weekday will include some Maisie time, some time for composing, some time to punch notes into Finale, reading and writing for the new course, time to read a book, and a long break for lunch, all before starting to teach voice lessons most weekdays at 3.30 p.m.
Structure will be a good thing!
Sundays are for church and little else except for theatre or concerts. And I’m gone quite regularly too.
