Day 19 in the Studio

TUESDAY

Had a day off yesterday not just from recording, but from writing my Blog as well. This is actually the first time I skipped my blog, and to tell you the truth I was just too exhausted last night and fell asleep early. My daughter Senia invited Dusty and I to her company picnic, she works for Tivo and they had their annual picnic which was a Carnival theme. Much fun, tons of food, snacks (which I love), these were not your average snacks, they had flavored snow, so light, fluffy, airy, but tons of flavor! Also Kettle Corn, buttered popcorn my absolute weakness, Snow Cones with a zillion different flavors to choose from, Cotton Candy... Jumpers, a giant Shark Slide, oh and two baby white Tigers for photo ops. Lots of people and lots of fun for the kids. We hung out there for a few hours, then came home.

A close family friend called me to ask if I could babysit his little 7 month old baby girl in the evening. Well I've been around Antonella a couple of times, but this was her first time being babysat and really by a complete stranger. So you know what that means, yes she cried, poor baby I felt bad for the both of us! Senia came over and we took turns carrying her and wouldn''t you know it - Sam came home and she liked him! We finally found relief from her crying, it was pretty cute, and he was incredibly proud. Sam had to go back to work at 9pm so he left and again waaaaah! But then Sissy came home, and guess what she liked Sissy's arms. Beautiful baby girl, but she's gonna have to stay more often so she doesn't have to go through shock next time.

Anyways, we have been doing the Insanity workout and I got my workout gear on, then just totally pooped out. I couldn't keep my eyes open - I hadn't felt this way in a long time and I couldn't stay up if I wanted to. I went to bed and thought well I'll wake up and write my blog, but it never happened. Sometimes your body just let's you know that it's done, and I was definitely done, oh well I'll work out super hard tonight.

WEDNESDAY

Business as usual today, I went to the Studio, it was a pretty short day since everyone needed to leave a bit early. But we did complete the chorus on our new song Paradise of Life. And the background vocals for Good Times. So still pressing on with the project. I must say it's getting difficult to juggle the home, work, studio, social events. Gosh my house, my little garden, and my kids are suffering. Not such a great summer for the kids, but we knew it was gonna be a stretch for us all. Summer Project is in full swing, Sam has also been putting in long hours, so I rarely see him. So we're gonna get away for some much needed family time this weekend with a couple days of camping. Can't wait to sit around the fire eating roasted marshmallows. Tomorrow we will be starting early, around noon, stop in if your able to online, I think we'll get a lot accomplished. See ya then!
