When I directed choir and handbells, I was always looking for music for us to do. I got lots of samples in the mail. I saved a lot of the samples. I also saved copies of the things that were really successful or popular. What that added up to was a HUGE pile of music samples. I have tried to sort through it and save some of my absolute favorites. I think there are two boxes of music in the shipping container. Will I even ever direct choir again?
I put the rejected samples in the recycling pile last night. It will get picked up this morning. I also put out a LOT of cardboard boxes that were holding various things in the basement. They’ve seen better days. If I kept anything that was being stored in them, I transferred it to new boxes before shipping it to Hawaii.
Yay! More stuff is leaving my house! I have more trash and more donatable items left, but the pile is dwindling. I think today I’m going to try to make a dump run.
Hopefully it wont rain before they pick this up.
Wow. It’s like a whole-house cleanse. It must feel very freeing!
It’s so hard to select the “absolute favorites” when it comes to music. I feel your pain and am sure you did keep the best ones.
