Spring is seriously sprung now, I think. My poor overgrown flower beds in my front yard were yelling at me, so I’ve been taking care of them today. I hate to admit, but I think sometimes ours must be “THAT house” in the neighborhood - you know, the one we all like to drive by, shaking our heads because the yard looks so unkempt. Yeah.... So, I got out there today and made war with some weeds. There’s still some left standing, but I at least don’t feel like I have to hang my head in quite so much shame. It will be a battle I will finish with relish tomorrow. My azalea bushes are just starting to bud. It should be pretty very soon. Now, the backyard I don’t even want to talk about.... What with dog and children, I think there’s no hope for that one.
So, I recorded some more music tracks over the weekend. Or I should say, re-recorded. They were recorded last week, but I’ve decided to take a couple songs down a key so I’m having to relearn and re-lay tracks. It’s all good, though - they sound so much more ‘right’ in a lower key. Not to mention, much easier to sing. That’s one of the perks of having my own little studio setup at home - I can take as much time to lay tracks as I need. It’s taken me about 10 years or more to get my studio to this point, and I’m still adding and subtracting pieces of equipment to get it the way I’m comfortable with. And of course, there’s a HUGE amount of learning how to work it all that I still need to do - I only know basics, and I don’t think I’ll ever get to Pro status. But it’s fun, it’s at my fingertips, and it at least provides what I need. And I’m thankful. :)
So now that I’ve scrubbed off at least most of the dirt fallout from this morning’s weed scuffuffle, I’m heading back upstairs to record while my Li’l Dude is napping.
Cheers!
