Just recently released two new singles, "In The Shadows Of My Steeple" and "White Lies And Picket Fences". This is great because that means I now have a total of three (3) singles so far from the "Reckless Heart" CD! That's exciting!
I just released a new website, http://www.vickivann.net/, although it's been there for a while it rather needed a few updates, but it's a work in progress. I like the way it's coming together. Check it out and let me know what you think. It's a Tumblr account so you can follow me which is very cool, and it has links to all my social media pages, so there are a lot of places where you can find me to communicate.
My Fourth of July was rather quiet and rightfully so because tomorrow it's back to work as usual. Ugh! I go back to the gym with spin class at 8:00 a.m., and back in the studio in the afternoon. It seems like there are days when it feels as though all I do is work out, and then work out. My life consists of a series of different work out routines, and only the location changes. I do love it though most days. It makes me feel alive, healthy, and strong. Typically my day begins at 6:00 am which is quite unusual for any entertainer, but I love the quiet mornings. It's my favorite time of the day. It's so, so quiet, and I meditate, drink lemon tea with ginger, read scripture, pray, and write in my journal, and by 8:00 a.m. I'm off to the gym for 2 hours. I work out with a trainer for an hour and then I spend an hour on the treadmill or the elliptical machine doing my own cardio. I usually run 3 miles, and I always finish with the stairclimber. I spend the afternoons practicing and singing and working on music. It's always fun for me to look forward to social networking in the evenings while I watch TV and get ready to start all over again the next day. Of course if I have an event, or an appearance, everything gets thrown out of whack completely, and I have to alter the schedule to accomodate everything. My favorite workout with my trainer is kickboxing, and my favorite rehearsal is when I get to sing all my old songs. It always makes me feel good to warm up with vocals to my old songs. I could do that for hours. My guitar player and I have the best time with that. He loves it too. Learning new songs is fun and always welcomed but it can be a challenging. I keep hydrated with lots of fresh coconut water and I always eat Lays Potato Chips. It's true!! I really do. I just have to count out how many I eat. It's so easy to eat the whole entire bag isn't it?! That would easily mean another mile on the treadmill....ya think? Just sayin'! It's worth it cause they're so good!
Now it's 1:11 a.m. and if I'm going to make my 6:00 a.m. wake up call, it's off to slumberland for me....Night all, for now....I wish you all sweet dreams.
Happy Independence Day!! Happy Birthday America! I love you!
