Updates when you get back, Noonan. I feel your pain.

Can’t stay awake for the elections results. Congrats to the winners, and thanks to all who ran.
I’m blowing my nose.
That’s Mr. S, Birdin’… chest colds. If I keep a box of tissues handy, I can stay on the computer for quite a while. 😉 Then I will probably go take a nap after lunch.
BTW…

No one is ever obligated to reply, but only once have I ever seen any action taken on something I wrote to someone. When I don’t see any action or get a reply, I always wonder if they never checked their email or if it slipped their mind or if they just ignored it. Sounds like some of the newer cachers don’t even have a registered email for anyone to contact them.
I have a beastly head cold.

Super, Birdin’! Sorry, LN…
I just made two valentine jigsaw puzzles for the drivelers, to be revealed later in the week. 😈
Last day to vote for WGA BOD members. If you haven’t voted already, do so now because right before the stroke of midnight tonight, your unused ballot will turn into a pumpkin.
Never could do those before, but now I can on occasion. Always thought it was odd that there were magic eye photos in the exam rooms at my eye doctor’s office… as if I didn’t have enough trouble with the “real” eye tests!

:like: Is meeting Elsa better than seeing Santa Claus? (You’d better get that doll outfit done soon!)
We lost our band program several years ago. Barely have a choir. No shop classes. No money being funneled to th small rural schools.
🙁 There is so much more to education than the three Rs.
Ours is a Steinway also.
Ours is… not.
Our piano is a Lagonda upright that we bought for $75 in 1975, and we had to haul it down three flights of stairs to get it out of the apartment building where it was, which we did with plenty of help. It sat in our living room for about a month or so until we moved, at which time it traveled about 25 miles in the open back of a 1950 International truck. We were in that rental house for two years, and then we bought our place that we are in now, and it traveled seven miles in the open back of a newer truck, and we got it into the house by backing the truck up to the front door and pushing it straight in on a couple of sturdy planks to where it sits now. Unfortunately, we redid the front entrance in 1995, so there is no way that it will go back out the same way whenever we decide to move. We could maneuver it out the back door or else leave it with the house. That’s what happened when my parents bought their place when I was almost eight. A huge piano came with the house, so piano lessons for my sister and me were a no brainer. We left it with that house when my parents sold the residence and moved in 2003.
With all of the moving, we have never had our piano tuned, and it has beautiful tone. I don’t know if it’s worth anything, but a photo I found online shows that it was made around 1920. Guess it’s an antique. Maybe I should dust it once in a while.
There are now three banjos in this house. (said she who has three dulcimers)(but one of those is a junky little camping dulcimer)(so it really doesn’t count).
Well, I don’t have three pianos in the house! 😉 But if we are talking about an instrument of choice, I do have more than one working camera…
