Piano contest is online this year.

This means more work and less work all at the same time. And because of the “more work” part, we had to push preliminaries back by a week or two, making the contest finals also pushed back. That means that the days that the judges are working (online) will be later in March and then my busy time of getting all the results out will be even later in March.

All that said, it’s been unsettling for me to turn the calendar into March and not be crazy busy. I’ve been doing contest now for 13 years and this is the first March in all those years where I haven’t been busy getting ready. It feels weird.

Tim has already started working a little bit again–not working in the field just yet, but doing bids and follow up work. And if the weather is as nice as they expect for the next 10 days (staying in the mid 40’s) that should pretty much do away with all the snow we have left. (We’re all pretty excited to move onto Spring!)
