Why do I always get so nervous

when I have to perform? arrgh, I'm antsy. And it's not even that big. Today at about 2:15 I will be going to the senior citizens center in Enderlin to play violin and make balloon animals for a birthday party. I don't even really know what to expect, but there are going to be elderly people there and about 18 kindergartners. Whew!
     And I am SOO out of practice too. But I guess kindergartners can't tell the difference between bad violin playing and good playing, especially if they've never heard a violin player before anyway, so it should go okay.
     I am going to do balloon stuff too. I'm going to keep it simple: Hat, dog or sword. Hopefully the balloons will stay together with those kids bashing them around but I guess all I can do is make them. :P I'll let you know how it goes.
   
Wish me luck,

♥Mattie

    Have fun! I've played my violin in a seniors center before. It's not that bad. I guess maybe I'm used to it though!

    Yeah, I play a lot for seniors but I still get nervous all the time! Kudos to you book blogger for keeping the violin-playing tradition alive!

    Hey MattieR!

    No, I don't have my books yet. But I might get them this evening! We only go to check the post office that has the books twice a week, but today we are going. I hope they are there! If they are, I'll email you a picture of me with them as soon as possible (probably today)

    Hi Mattie!

    So, here's what's going on with the draw.
    My books came today! All THREE of them!
    Which means, I got the Appaloosy book you sent me a while back AND the two books that you just sent me. I just don't understand it. The first book should NOT have taken that long to come.
    So, can I keep ALL the books? I have someone in mind that I'd like to give your "Appaloosy" book to. I KNOW she'd love it!

    Sorry for commenting so much, but I am sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo excited! I have your books in front of me!!!!!!!!!! I am taking a two week blogging break starting this weekend, and will read the books during my break!!!!
    (Just a quick reminder, I have two Appaloosy books. I can send them back if you want, but I would LOVE it if you'd let me keep it and give it to a friend. I just KNOW she'd love your book!)
    P.S. whoever did the covers on your books, they did an awesome job!
