Sheet Music Online sheetmusicplus.com

Is the nearest sheet music store a 45 minute drive away? Does your local store have a tiny selection? This is a common problem for most musicians. It seems that the good old fashion Sheet Music Shoppe has just disappeared. Enter sheetmusicplus.com. These folks are the answer to all of your sheet music needs. You can search their inventory by instrument or by music genre. They even offer music for ensembles such as choirs, jazz bands, and string quartets. I’ve always turned to them to find the perfect song for an upcoming audition. Their customer service is great and the merchandise always arrives in a timely manner. Shop Sheet Music Plus for the World’s largest selection of sheet music, songbooks and guitar tabs. I highly recommend them!

Hotels.com Hotel Reservations and more

Travel is a top priority on the list in order to maintain my sanity most years. I like to go places I’ve never been and see things I’ve never seen. The only problem with this is that I rarely know where I should stay. You can easily choose a hotel from a well known chain and take your chances, but why put yourself through that game? Before choosing a hotel I always browse through Hotels.com to read reviews before making my decision. It has saved me from an uncomfortable nights sleep on an unusually hard bed, loud traffic outside the windows, horrible continental breakfasts, and so much more. Even the well known 3 or 4 star chain hotels are different in each city. So do your research on Hotels.com before you make your decision! They also offer great pricing…Search Here for Hotels.com Best Hotel Deals!

Realistic New Years Resolutions

It’s that time of year again. Can you believe it? I can’t speak for the rest of the world, but I think this was easily the speediest year in history!! As we say goodbye to 2009 and hello to 2010 many of us will compile a list of resolutions to help make the coming year even better than those preceding it.

I’ve been known to set such resolutions, but come March 1st I’ve either completely forgotten what I resolved to do or simply gave up because I wasn’t determined enough. For the last three or four years I’ve decided to stop making unresolvable resolutions and instead really break them down and make small changes that are much more realistic.

Last year was successful. I actually wrote a list of about 7 resolutions. I told myself that I didn’t have to complete them all, but to pick them off one at a time. Now that the year has come to and end I am glad to say that I completed 4 of the 7. So this year I will do the same.

I am going to post my list here so that y’all can keep tabs on me. Feel free to post your resolutions too and we can all keep each other motivated.
