#6 Piano Lessons

So this item on my list, I am proud to say, I actually started a few weeks ago but I am just now sitting down to write about it. One day I pulled out Darren's keyboard, cleared some space in the living room for it and brought over two stools. And then that was it. LoL.
Darren tinkered around on it a few times but we didn't have any sheet music or any lesson books. One day while we were at Darren's mom's house a week or so later, we asked her to borrow some. Of course, she had a whole filing cabinet full of all the lesson, recital and technique books saved for all the levels. I took all the level 1s and two Christmas books.
I was extremely pleased and quite surprised at how quickly I picked the basics back up. Within an hour or so I had re-taught myself to play When the Saints Go Marching and We Wish Your a Merry Christmas. Since we borrowed the lesson books, I have been practicing for at least 30 minutes almost everyday.
I still have ALOT of work to do though. My goal is to be able to play Linus and Lucy by next Christmas and to play one duet with Darren!
