We're just about to say goodbye to 2009 and I have to say it has been a really good year. There have been a few years in the past when I've thought 'thank God it's over!' but this year I bid it farewell with fond memories. Of course the biggest thing this year was the birth of my daughter...I never thought I'd be a mommy! But it has been an amazing blessing and I so look forward to what 2010 will bring with her. And I'm also very happy about 2009 bringing us the launch of The Jeffersons...never thought I'd be part of a duo either! So many changes! You just never know which way the world is gonna turn! Hopefully 2010 will bring lots of exciting opportunities for The Jeffersons....I'm sure it will.
Have a Happy New Year and CELEBRATE!!

United Hates Babies?!?!
- - - Tuesday, December 22, 2009
We just arrived home from a trip to Calgary AB on Friday. We had a performance at the Jack Singer Concert Hall and a spot on 'Breakfast Television', a local morning TV show in Calgary.
On the flight home we flew Northwest...they were much nicer and very helpful.
And now I have to do some complaining about the airlines...well, one specific airline. We flew United on the way up and we've discovered that they don't like guitars and they don't like babies either. (check out this very popular YouTube video from a guy who had his guitar busted up by United).
Just before take off I asked the flight attendant if I could have some water to make a bottle for Ivy and they looked at me like I was asking for the moon! Then, they are supposed to inform all parents with babies the proper way to hold them for take off and landing...but not a word to us. Then...here's my favorite part...I had to change Ivy's diaper (major poop) and I asked the flight attendant if she could dispose of the diaper for me which was nicely wrapped up and sealed tightly in a plastic baggy. She said that she couldn't throw it out for me because it was considered a bio hazard and that they weren't even allowed to touch it! Ha! My baby is a bio hazard! I had to chuckle over that one...

Merry, Merry, Merry

The three of us are heading out for one more trip to Canada to finish off the year. We'll be in Calgary this week for a show on Thursday night at The Jack Singer Concert Hall. Just a few songs as there will be other artists on the bill as well. I just checked the weather for Calgary and the high today is -22 C! Holy Crap! Our Nashville winter clothes are not meant for that kind of deep freeze....
Anyway, aside from that we are 2 weeks into our SellaBand project and it's going very well. It's like Christmas every morning around here...the first thing we do is go on line to see who else has joined up as Jeffersons believers! When I look back to first getting started in the music business I would never have guessed that the internet would be such a huge part of the industry now. It's amazing what you can do and how many people you can connect with. We have believers from all over the world....Italy, Germany, Portugal, France, The Netherlands, just to name a few. All just a click away! Awesome....
Paul and I want to thank all of you who have checked out the SellaBand site and bought shares in our project and we (Ivy too) wish you all a very Merry Christmas!
