Well, I am in the exciting stage of preparing to record!  Our first session will be next Saturday, and I hope to touch up some previous recordings as well as start up some new ones.  I’m pretty pumped.  Honestly, it can be a bit overwhelming at times as I am trying to work on notating the score, arrange songs, find musicians, schedule sessions (practices and recordings), and think about how the heck it’s all going to fit within the next 4 months!  4 months may seem like a long time, but when you’re working full-time and trying to work with other people who go to school and work as well, 4 months is more like 4 seconds.  So yes, at times it feels like my brain is flashing OVERLOAD OVERLOAD signals, but then I remind myself that this very real God that I know (and am getting to know) is actively involved in my life and wants to help me.  And I can see Him helping me…if I look.  Too often, I am so focused on the To Do list as it grows longer that I miss all the other things He is helping me accomplish. 

So, my motto as of late has been, “How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time.”  Mmm…I guess I will be learning to like the taste of elephant over the next 4 months.
