Let's be real...

...perusing a career in music is tough. I know I have been posting so much recently about all the great things that are happening for Dave's music (and they are wonderful), but that doesn't mean that we are on the downhill slide of this journey. Instead we are thankful for all the great opportunities coming our way and that things are still moving forward, but it also makes us realize how much further we have to go...

Also, these opportunities don't come without their cost. You have to spend money to make money, right? Well we are definitely still in the spend money side of things. While the album has been selling and things like that, we won't see money from iTunes for awhile still. Plus, the money from the television shows won't be coming until at least next spring. But, I've said it before and I'll say it again...Dave and I know that money is not what is important in life. We feel like we are blessed beyond measure to have found one another and that we're able to be together every day. That's what matters most in life to us.

...but that doesn't mean that some days aren't rough. Everyone has their moments. Some days you just wake up with the weight of the world on your shoulders and you feel like all of the hard work you've been doing doesn't matter. And boy do we work hard. Some nights we have to make ourselves step away from the computer (work) and go to bed because it's late. But there is always something more you could be doing. To me it's worth it if it helps one more person hear Dave's music.
