Well, I can't think of much to post about. We've been cleaning the basement (but then my dad said we're going to get sick down there with the mold). I'll have to post before and after pictures sometimes (not finished yet). Absolutely astounding. It's not astonishing because we're doing such a good job, it's amazing because of the mess we started with! Anyhow, it's amazing to me.
What do musicians spend their time doing? Practicing, of course! A few months ago I arranged a short flatpicking solo, consisting of one verse of the hymn Honey in the Rock. I wanted to be sure I got in enough practice to perform it without flubbing up TOO badly, so I made up this chart, and finished it. I've got a second one that is another 1000 reps, but the last line (20 reps) I never finished! This chart looks sort of messy because I accidentally made it only 500 squares, so I had to double mark it. Heh, I don't really think this is terribly interesting to you all, but I don't have any new pictures online, I can't resize any to post on this computer, and I don't feel like writing anything.
