Da Piano....

My first recital...Look at those hands!

I started in the fourth grade and stopped when I graduated from high school.  Every week during the school year...This was my mother's way of ensuring that I wouldn't become a teen mom (lol).  The truth.

My teacher liked Bach.  I wanted to play Computer Blue.  Each recital was a hot mess - forgot the song, last minute "special practice sessions", tears and frustrations, and competitions and duets with my biggest rival.

I haven't stopped thinking about it.  This is the year.  I'm taking piano lessons.  Again.

Happy New Year!
