Here We Go Now.
The title of the first track off my friend Tim Krekel’s posthumous album Sings up the Sun released ten years ago this past June. Imagine how I felt listening to tunes from a guy I made music with three years after his death. The first time I listened to this album, I was on the back porch alone. I listened and I cried like a baby.
Tim’s track on this album called Perfect Flaw changed my life. And I didn’t get to tell him.
Carrie and I saw Tim two weeks before he died in 2009. We told him we loved him. Ten years later, I needed to rediscover this album, that sits on my shelf, on Amazon Music. I had never looked for it on a streaming service. It was too personal. My own tunes are on Amazon and other streaming services. I don’t look for those either. They are too personal.
My 2022-2023 classroom is ready. I am so looking forward to meeting my new students and the opportunity to help them make progress.
I am so ready. I am so excited to begin the school year.
I am blessed.
Speaking the rights.
