Ask most any artist that is really stepping out there, and they will likely tell you that this isn't an easy calling. I have found this to be the case. But along the way I've been learning perspective. Why would I want it to be easy when the challenges give me clarity- they push me to grow- they give me something to say?  Since the devastation in Haiti it's impossible for me to look at my life...all of it...and find any reason to complain. Yes...I'm human, and find myself staring at disappointments just as much as anyone else, but when the bigger picture unfolds, I gain strength and hope when I see...God can work ANYTHING out for good!

 So I'm officially in the pre-production phase. For those of you who don't know what that is... it's deciding the songs to record, re-arranging them if needed, and laying down a scratch track for them. A scratch track is for the studio musicians so they can can get the structure of the song and lay down the official tracks of them. Clear as mud? lol. Anyways...I have a enough pre-orders to get started the first three songs! I'm super excited about this! You can expect a sneak preview of the CD in …

ok. So i'm pretty sure that the only way I will be getting through this day is with my friend Starbucks. It's been a long few days of scratching down tracks in my basement, and doing last minute arrangements on songs before presenting them in the studio- where they will no doubt undergo even more of a makeover. It's a pure pleasure, but alot of work.

Pre-orders are coming along. Enough to get me a good start in the studio, but not enough to finish yet. It has been so cool to feel the joint effort by you guys to make this happen. I'm seeing just how much we can accomplish and have an impact in life when we share each other's loads. (Haiti benefit concert was such a testimony of this). Almost like a bed of nails...or...ya...something like that.

Anyways, just thought you might like an update of where things are at. They are indeed moving along....
now...where is that Starbucks...

  sooooo....today as you can see, it's my birthday. It's actually my GOLDEN birthday or royal birthday or whatever it's called...you know turning 29 on the 29th! Glad you could all join my special day today online. When i blow out the candles to my cyber bday cake, my wish will be to have this album recorded long before my 30th bday, and that there will be 50 PRE0RDERS today! Yes...yes..i know...shameless plug but... 1. I need this to help me progress on the album. 2. It's a gift for you too! Don't …

 Looks like I'm alot more emotional about this project than I thought. Every pre-order that has been coming in has been making me cry. In a good way of course. Let's just hope this doesn't make me as emotional as my husband. lol. Thanks for the support guys!
