Needless to say I've been having a difficult time at work this year; mostly as of lately. Today I came upon the realization that I will never be able to please absolutely everyone; and I decided not to kill myself trying. I've made MANY adjustments to how I approach leadership with the group over the past week or so, and I'm really proud that I've been able to do a complete 180 with the way I handle things. Changing attitudes just won't happen with some people; so I'm determined to just do the very best I personally can. In that regard, I'm having a great summer.
Luckily (and unluckily at the same time), Valleyfair has been losing money due to the economy, so Stauff had to cut some extra days of us working this summer. As a result, we have Wednesday, Thursday AND Friday off this week. I'm pumped that I'll be able to have some real time off to gear up before school starts. I'm driving ALL THE WAY down to Milwaukee after our 6 p.m. show tomorrow night. Long drive, but hopefully it won't be too bad. I hope my car makes it too; its not doin so hot. :/
Trombone hasn't been great lately; mostly I haven't been motivated to play. I just want to relax and spend time with people. I haven't even done much of that; but not having to do stuff feels good sometimes. I'm hoping I'll be able to get back into my intensive practice/workout routine very soon....I always feel better when I do that. :)
Time for some sleep. Loooong drive tomorrow.
Love,
