"If there's music inside of you, you've got to let it out." (From my song, Music Inside of Me)

Hi! I'm Trudy Rushin, and this is my blog, created in June 2009. I am a singer-songwriter-composer who plays guitar. Born and bred in Cape Town, South Africa, I blog about whatever captures my imagination or moves me. Sometimes I even come up with what I like to call 'the Rushin Solution'. Enjoy my random rantings. Comment, if you like,
or find me on Facebook: Trudy Rushin, Singer-Songwriter.

I also do gigs - solo, duo or trio - so if you're looking for vocal-guitar jazz music to add a sprinkle of magic to your event, send me an e-mail to guitartrudy@gmail.com.

To listen to me singing one or two of my original songs, type my name on www.soundcloud.com or www.youtube.com

The Number

So I decided to fiddle around and give my blog a facelift. This is fun - I'm sure I'll do it many more times, now that I've discovered how.

Scary reality-check moment today - fraught with images of my body being coerced into untold torment, in pursuit of a physical ideal I'd not only never had, but had just about lost all intentions of aspiring to - when I stepped onto the scale, after years, and saw..... THE NUMBER!!!!! (Blood draining from face!). Without supplying too much detail, let’s just say it was ….. um …. a round figure!

This is how I choose to address this challenge: it took me many months (actually, years) of dedicated overeating and lack of exercise to achieve my current shape, and so I grant myself many months in which to achieve the reverse effect. Wish me luck.

This is one of the three hardest things for me to assimilate/deal with/understand/conquer, but I am committing to something or other - I'll figure it out (so to speak) in the bath tonight. Actually all three challenges start with an "M" - we're talking Mass, Men and Money, and not necessarily in that order!
