Still struggling to catch up with lots of things, and this blog is falling way behind. First, a little mosaic of Jackson and his reading progression…
checking my chart 
a little relaxed reading 
screaming… 
planning the next vacay 
looking to the future!
Very exciting news for us, to say the least.
The other news involves a move for Pattie and I. Lots of components to the story, but the bottom line is that we’ll relocate to Raleigh in early/mid-June, with Pattie’s mom to join us in the months following. Lots to do between now and then, of course, not the least of which is packing up this Greenville home and preparing it for a sale. We’ve begun the process over the past weeks, emptying a few rooms now, patching/painting as needed, moving lots of boxes out to the garage so that the house is not filled with ’em while we show the place. This weekend will likely work on emptying out the attic…
Really very pleased to report that a few good friends and younger colleagues are having deservedly great success on the job market this year. The market is so very tight, but I’m happy that these two fine teachers, composers, are getting offers. Good news when good people move ahead a bit; the schools that hire them, the students that get to work with them, will all be so rich for this move they’re making.
