So anyhow, letting go of everything weird in this life to focus on this happy positive -- I have started taking voice lessons from a very reputable teacher! It costs a lot of money and is something that is purely for the good of Marie. I have always wanted to do it but put other things in front of it until there was no TIME for my other things, and then I didn't want to do it 'cause I was too scared. And then I thought, what am I afraid of? Improving? So I did it! I made the call! I'm officially a student! Today was my second lesson, and it went great. He's a great teacher, and I am a more then willing student! And just to pat myself on the back, he said he was amazed at the breakthroughs we made and thinks I can improve 10 times faster then normal, thanks mostly because I can relate a lot of what he says to acting training. So anyhow, just ignore the fact that this sounds like bragging 'cause I really hope it's not, I was just very very very encouraged and I really needed that!!! I did the "happy lesson" dance!!!
I'd like to thank the academy, my public, my darling husband and children, and my own dear mother for her encouragement. Mom, this trophy really belongs to you.

no way, voice lessons??? that is so cool. you are inspiring me that i should call someone and sign up. to bad i don't live closer to your reputable teacher because i would need someone really good to work with this voice. thanks for sharing. i thought about sending you a comment earlier that i really needed a marie post. happy thoughts are always good for me :). well you go girl. i can hardly wait to hear you sing. they always say it's never to late and i always think it is too late but you are totally showing me by example it's not (not that you are actually that old :)) please one of these days post a video of you singing!
Hey I think we have the same teacher! He's pretty cool, huh!? :) Congrats on taking this step, vocal lessons can be scary because singing is so personal and there is a lot of mental stuff going on as well as the vocal stuff. I love taking from him though and have improved so much under is tutelage!
Way to go Marie. You're such an awesome person. I just love your blog. Thanks for stopping by and supporting my parents business! Did you tell them hi for me? J/K. I miss going and looking through the plant maze myself. I really loved working there in the spring. Now I just look at all the weeds in my yard and wish I could find the time to exterminate them. Newborns make it difficult to accomplish much. I should in fact be tackling the stack of dishes and starting yet another load of laundry instead of typing this note. But I would rather be typing:)! Keep smiling and have a fabulous day.
I am so jealous! I've always wanted to do that. I think it would be great! Kaylee really wants to take voice lessons, too! Maybe one day! haha Congrats on the encouragement and the courage! You're awesome!
