I've had some rough days this fall. Lots of people I love struggling with their health. Cancer sucks. My feelings of inadequacy sometimes get the best of me. My family lost 2 dear friends within a week. First we lost Matt up in Chicago. It just won't be the same when we visit the Rajskis. Today, we lost Pat Mellon. She's one of my mom's oldest and dearest friends. Growing up, she was my other mother.
The good news is - I just found out I had a student make all-state choir for the second year in a row!
So with the smooth and the rough, I'll keep getting up, trying my best and looking for the positive.
