Dave, hope all is well with you. I got caught up in a different project, that took most of my day, for over the last 42 days. I lifted 1,000,000 pounds I did it because my son was deployed, and will be gone for about nine months. Just something to keep track of the days. I will be getting back into my lessons, I was just getting ready to get into octaves.. What I think I will do is go to the movement exercises. I have been takeing lessons from you for a couple of years. I know I would try to slip by the octaves. I think I would do better for mysel if I got to know my harp, and MOVEMENT better. I HATE TO CHANGE COURSE, but I think this will help me in the long run ! So I will come back to octaves, and I will now do movement ex, Thanks DAN

Thank you for sharing that... best wishes to your son. Doing the movement exercises is a great idea... you can still work on your octaves a little bit each day as well.
