You sound much like my wife last night. She has scheduled a
student recital. One good student can't come. A student wants to play who
hasn't made it to the last two lessons. A third student wants to play; but
she can't fine page 2 of her music. I try to look interested and hope that
she' just venting and doesn't want a more meaningful response.
