Things I Have Learned Recently

In no particular order:

1. Fund-raising for a charity run is easier than you might expect; training for the run takes a lot more time than you might expect.
2. If there is no deadline over your head, it is waaaay easier to start a recording than finish it.
3. It is easy to procrastinate from writing your blog.

Ok, let's take care of #2 and 3. I'm going back to regular song postings, two per month. Let's say the first and third Sundays. Not promising it won't mostly be crap or test recordings of just me and one instrument, but it will be progress. 

For months with an extra Sunday, my good friend and accordion festival guru Jack has graciously offered to fill in on week #5 with readings of his anti-beat poetry.

See how easy that was? Heh.

Okay, but would your friends and relatives have donated as much money if you hadn't been running?

I'm afraid you have to include the running time in the fundraising time total.

Also--as a good "stewardship" practice (that's professional fundraising lingo), you need to tell us--how'd the run go? What was your time? Are you alive?
