nervous excitement

So, as most of you know i play the piano. I really REALLY enjoy playing the piano. Sitting down and spinning off some lovely tunes has always made my heart light. The somewhat unfortunate aspect of this hobby is that...well..to share it requires spotlight, and that makes me nervous. I start to feel small and silly, knowing that there are much more capable hands out there to play.

Anyway. i am going to play Christmas music in three weeks for a church Christmas party. I requested only the arrival time, so that as people come in and sit down i will be the 'background' music. I am really excited about this, since i feel a little silly NEVER using my piano skills, but then, there is a season for everything. (I still hope to teach children piano in the future, and have laid out some lesson plans.) Dave is excited too. He is always trying to drop hints to people that i play piano, and that i should be playing in church. (i think it is his round about way of saying he likes how i play....hahaha, i know i'm not good enough to play for any worship team, not with my lack of practice over these last 3 years)

yep. that is my nervous excitement for the month. ha. should be fun. :)
