happy photos
so here's my mom looking really happy, channeling her 10-year-old bliss via accordion playing. and that's my beaut of an accordion. we were in the sunniest room in my grandparents' house so that was all good-feeling and nostalgic, too.
my lesson yesterday went well, i suppose. this is going to be challenging. but i'll work it out. for now i need to really polish up the basics of music theory and get comfortable with the mechanics of playing the thing. but i really did learn so much already. i won't bore anyone with details. one of you out there would be excited by them and we already discussed yesterday and got that geekiness out of the way.
since i've got the camera going, i thought i'd add another photo along the "happy" theme. this one is from a particular moment when i was going to bed and i looked around the room and felt nice because it was clean. also, probably because mike was not home yet to stink it up. i like the wool mother-in-law-made socks hanging from the dresser drawer to dry. aw, homey.
the end.

It's fun to try something like this. You should check out your father's Music room in FL to see what else he has available.
