Music to tide you over…
At this point I haven’t actually been motivated to get anything posted in a while (to many other things taking my time away from me). BUT! I’m working on it. This weekend I’ve got some time off, but I’ve also got a lot on my plate to take care of. So at this point I may or may not have some of my projects blogged, but till then I have a list of the SotD from NPR. These are the ones I liked out of the most recently available tracks. Enjoy!!
