Heather's Heavenly Vapes - THE BIG THREAD (Part 5)

I did the same levels when I was younger. I'm badly out of practice and time is hard to come by. But each day I play the better I get. I have an antique upright piano at my Mom's house that my grandmother gave me that I have no room for here. I have a Casio PX-130 here...takes up much less real estate.

Didn't know you played.. always loved the Piano. We have one sitting in the basement. Wifey did 6 levels of Piano when she was younger, but is badly out of touch. She wishes she had more time to use ours..

I can't play for nuts.. :p

We bought a Yamaha something or other about 5 or 6 years ago. Weighted keys (3 settings), Pedals, multiple instruments etc. Not cheap at $2K something, but it's good.

The best it has ever been played was when a visiting cousin of my parents, who used to play Piano for a living played for us after dinner. He loved the Piano and now owns one himself. :)

I used to have a Yamaha like yours. A late '90's model that my ex has. I never played, always wanted to. Every Sunday, we used to load it up in our Suburban, along with our 4 young daughters and head off to church to lead the worship music. It was a church just starting out that met in the meeting room of a fire hall. That was a bit hectic!

I noticed yours in your basement disco. :)

Good morning. Well hubby is on his feet again, hopefully it lasts this time. He did say he is feeling much better. I will work for a couple of hours on a couple of things that must be done then off to spend the rest of the day with mom...doing lunch, nails and a movie it should be fun.
On the piano thing...Dusty when Chloe gets a little older perhaps she could take lessons and mom's skills will be quickly refreshed.

Definite yes on Piano lessons for Chloe. She loves sitting in front of it, and using it in Demo mode pretending that she's playing.

Mommy has also broken down some basic sheet music for her in A, B, C's and she sits and plays those songs. :)

    I've been going through some of the NET's that Bridget so kindly sent me , and I'm really liking the Candied Cavendish from TPR , it's definitely a banana tobacco but it's not as sweet as most of HHV's NET's , the balance is superb , the Cavendish really comes through . The Burley with candy is fruitier and a lot sweeter , vapable in small amounts for me . I can't quite get my head around the Net.com juices yet , they probably need more time to develop .

    Hi, always! Are your home improvements done? Are you still sore?
    We did get everything done except a few touch ups. It was sorely needed, we hadn't painted this area in 8 years and it had kid handprints everywhere hahaha. Thankfully not as sore from that, but definitely sore from my yoga workout yesterday. I tried a few new positions because I got a block for Christmas and I'm definitely not as strong as I thought [emoji23]

    We've got a ton of painting here too. Bet I won't handle it as well as you did! One doorway has the girls heights penciled to mark their growth. Gonna be bittersweet to paint over that one. Way to go on the yoga!

    There are some who taste banana in TPR's CC. I never did. It was a good vape though.

    Take pictures of it LA. Get close-ups of all the lines too...from bottom to top.

    Personally, I would remove those boards and replace them with new. Take the marked up boards with you. :)

    A good idea! A video panning up would be fun.

    That'd be tricky, since it's drywall that's been there since '91. I'm thinking disintegration right there.
