It’s been a good one, I have to say. I picked up guitar again. I’m taking lessons from my friend Stein. It’s not my first time playing, but I think it might as well be. When I went to college, I knew there was going to be a big gaping hole in my musical self because I’d be without a piano. My parents were kind enough to buy a guitar for me. I took a few lessons and I actually played a lot that first year of college. Unfortunately, then I moved home, back to my piano. So there the guitar sat, lonely in it’s case. Until now. Of course I remember nothing, so we’re starting from the beginning. It’s my goal to be playing again before summer’s end. Well, not just playing, but playing in front of you all at a show. In fact, just today we started looking at some dates for shows at the State Fair. That might just be the perfect deadline for me. After all, what better marker for the end of summer than the MN State Fair. We all eat like pigs, and start packing on the extra pounds for winter. Then, we go into hibernation. Isn’t it great!?! I might just start counting down to the state fair now!

So, that’s my week. Now, I’m off to make dinner. Turkey burgers and sweet potato fries. I may have a small addiction to food network. Oh, and salad. Can’t forget the vegetables. Mama taught me well.
