I sound my barbaric yawn!
I sound my barbaric yawn over the roofs of the world!
Ginny is four months old, and every cliche about parenting has come true, especially, “The minutes go by slowly and the days go by quickly.”
This week, I’ve accepted two challenges: Get Ginny on a nap schedule, and get myself on a practice/writing schedule that fits parenthood.
These two things may go hand-in-hand. As a new dad, I’ve been handling the gigging part of full-time music fine so far, but I’m struggling to find time for the rehearsing and writing aspects.
The day is filled with feedings, changing diapers, cleaning bottles, coxing Ginny to take a nap, cleaning diapers*, feeding again, cleaning bottles again, hopefully walking the dog, then off to play a gig or teach a guitar lesson!
Natalie mentioned to me, “Remember when we had so much time? What did we do with all that time?”
Before Ginny was here I would have said, “I’ve been handling the gigging part of full-time music fine so far, but I’m struggling to find time for rehearsing and writing.”
Time: So it comes, and so it goes!

*Yep, we are using Flip insert cloth diapers; they are great!
