I'll be thinking of you and hope to see you back tomorrow! I am one of those who didn't get to go home....

Best wishes!

Sign me up for MOYD 2012. I've been practicing everyday so far in 2012!

Just back from Christmas hols. Please add me to the list.

Please add me to the list. Thanks!

I'm in for a third year, please add me directly to the Excused list due to work travel (missed Jan 5 so far).

Thanks!

I love this thread! It has really made me accountable for practicing. Thank you for keeping it going. Yesterday I did not want to practiceas I was very tired. My plan was to sit down for 5 - 10 minutes (Just so I did not have to report I missed a day). Two and a half hours later I am still practicing. Not only that but it was one of my most beneficial days. Thank you again!

The cardiac ablation went very well and may really work to eliminate the afib. I came home last night and was too exhausted to do anything but today I'll make some music. So only missed a day so far this year. Shall I start with the Chopin or the Gurlitt? Maybe the Webber...

It's great to see all the new people signing up over the last few days! But just an FYI:
Casinitaly is on the excused list from January 4-9, so she probably won't be updating the list until she gets back.

Wisebuff, I don't understand the medical terminology, but it sounds like good news! Wonderful! Enjoy that piano.

Thanks Mary Bee.

Hi! Please add me to the 2012 MOYD!

Like Tinman1943, I've have been practicing but didn't find the extra time to add the new icon to my sig. Thanks MaryBee for the great art.

Being accountable to this group has also made a big difference in my playing, so thanks to all, but especially Cas. Really appreciate you taking on the job again.

I'm back. I actually managed to get in a bit of playing before we left on the 4th so only missed five days.

The list is caught up. Please let me know if I've got it right. I wasn't certain if some of the recent sign-ups have been playing since Jan 1 or are late starts.

Molehill... it is my pleasure to help out!

Welcome back Cas! How was your trip?

I need to go on the excused list starting on Saturday. I am going to the US to visit family and set up everything to import my horse and dog to Switzerland. My dog has been staying with my Mom until we found a suitable place, and my horse has been with a friend. I can't wait to see them! I will be back on Jan 30.

Thank you Becca. The trip went well, or at least as well as can be expected. We had to make an unplanned trip to Canada as my mother-in-law passed away.

Oh I'm sorry to hear that. My condolences. Glad you made the best of it though. Where did you travel to here in Canuckville?

Thank you Becca.

We were in Ottawa. Fortunately the weather wasn't too brutal, and our flights all went smootly.It wasn't a "fun" or "easy" trip by any means, but it was the right moment to be with the rest of the family.

Ottawa is very beautiful. This winter is extremely mild for us so very luck there. Glad you were with family. Bet you can't wait to get back to practicing!

Cas, So sorry to hear about your mother-in-law.

I missed Saturday, Jan. 7th. (So much for going for the pure list). We had a funeral to attend out of town. My brother-in-law's mother passed. It was a short trip, but an all day affair.

i'm still pure as of jan 11. i also start lessons tomorrow evening so hope to stay regular. just hope i don't stress out too much. in the past i did some lessons and always kind of freak out with the commitment of regular lessons. need to change my mental attitude this time. i had a few lessons with this teacher several years ago and i believe she is a very very good teacher and easy to work with.
