Day One Hundred (Year Eight)

Not a lot again today, after a long day of work, but at the very least I was able to crack open the magazines that came yesterday, and at least start to page through those.  Tomorrow is going to be (I hope) a fairly productive day that will allow me to get to at least some of the following: 1.  Listening 2.  Get caught up on the magazine pile 3.  Work on songs for the EP 4.  Practicing 5.  Beatles Study Of all of that, the last three things on the list are probably the most important, but I'm really hoping to get at least some work in on all of it.

Day Ninety Nine (Year Eight)

Not much to report today. New issues of Guitar World and Acoustic Guitar came in the mail, but I didn't have a chance to look through them at all.  Nor did I have much of a chance to get at the Beatles study, or anything else, really. Just a long, mostly unproductive sort of day.  Better tomorrow, I hope.

Day Ninety Eight (Year Eight)

Today was a quieter day than I had hoped for. I was able to fit in a little bit of work on the Beatles study, but there wasn't enough time today to really fall down the rabbit hole and lose myself, so in the end I had to be contented with another small step forward. I was really hoping for more out of this weekend.  I can't believe tomorrow is Monday already.  Maybe the next few days will offer an uptick. 

Day Ninety Seven (Year Eight)

Today was a better day, not because I had a whole lot more time in the studio today than I did yesterday, but because I had a chance to be deliberate in what I was focused on. It was a Beatles study sort of day, and I was just happy to get a little bit farther into things today than I did yesterday and the day before. With any luck, tomorrow is going to be an even bigger leap forward.

Day Ninety Six (Year Eight)

Today didn't end up being the day I had been hoping for, but I was still able to make a little bit of progress on a couple of different fronts. First of all, I was able to fit in a small bit of listening in between trying to get some things done around the house. Secondly, and more important, I was able to spend another bit of time on the Beatles study, and while I didn't have the time I wanted to, I had enough time to make another small push forward.  Considering the day I got versus the day I was expecting, I'll take that as a win and look forward to tomorrow.

Day Ninety Five (Year Eight)

Today was a crazy day at work, and yet it was also the lead-in to my weekend, so as exhausted as I was getting home, I knew that I still wanted to sit down and work on something tonight.  That ended up taking the form of a bit of theory work.  I had debated breaking out the Beatles stuff, but passed on that for tonight with the hope that I can pick it up tomorrow when I'm a bit less tired and a lot more fresh. Other things I want/need to get to this weekend include: 1.  Listening 2.  The EP project 3.  Practicing I'm really looking forward to the next few days.

Day Ninety Four (Year Eight)

Today was insane, and not necessarily in a good way.  We had our roof replaced today, which was a good thing, but it was loud enough that it was tough to focus. I managed to put in a bit of work on the Beatles study, but it wasn't a whole lot in the way of progress.  With that, there was some playing involved, but again, it wasn't enough.  I'm really hoping that the weekend is going to offer more opportunities in that regard.
