Charlie Brown, get out of my head

Today we had parent-teacher interviews. 2 1/2 hours of them. I don't think I learnt too much I didn't already know or suspected, but it was good to go face to face with the teachers. However, now I feel a bit overstimulated. 

Plus I have had a bit of an issue come up this week with an editorial decision I had a large part in with the magazine that came out last week. Someone has objected strongly to the decision and as an editorial team we're talking about it. I don't like conflict and no one enjoys being criticised, especially over a highly visible decision that many people are holding in their hands. 

So, I'm just feeling the need to chill out a little this afternoon.

I thought I'd share the song that my 7 y.o. has been learning on the piano recently. A song that I'm not conscious of hearing before, but probably I have. For a fairly laid-back song, it has stuck in my brain. See what you think:

Charlie Brown theme song by Vince Guaraldi

While looking for it, though, I found this Peanuts theme by the Piano Guys that made me cry. I've worked  with elderly people in a number of different settings, and this is such a precious little video. How much joy music can bring! It's truly a gift from God.
