Look what God sent us this weekend!
Isn’t that cool?! My brother-in-law found it in the trash last night on his way home. They stopped and talked to the man at the house, who said he was throwing it out because there was a couple of dead keys that would cost $150 each to repair. So we brought it home, took it all apart, and gave it a good cleaning. Good as new! The kids totally love playing it, and as long as they leave the volume button down, I love them playing it too.
This actually makes two pianos for us. The other one is in the basement apartment where the brothers-in-law live, and out of respect for them, I won’t publish the picture of the mess…
In reality, we probably won’t keep it, our church, it turns out, has been considering buying such a keyboard to use in worship. I think this would be a great addition to the worship team, so we’ll likely donate it. The timing on this is just too good to think that it’s coincidence and actually meant for us, not church, don’t you think?
But, in gratefulness, I’m passing on the giving. Here’s a monster hoodie for you.
I’ve been making these for birthdays for a year or so, various kinds. This is my first trial at a painted one, and they went over pretty well at last weeks birthday. This one is purple with a green dragon wrapping around under the left arm. I’m hoping someday to start selling these on etsy, but haven’t gotten there yet. Do you think they would sell? (For, say $15-$20?) It’s a “youth XL” size, and would probably fit someone who wears an ladies small or is just a bit smaller. (It’s definitely too small for me!)
We were exposed to the flu last weekend, so here’s the deal. Leave a comment on this post telling me your best (preferably natural and/or cheap) tip for keeping kids (or yourself) healthy in the cold/flu season. I’ll close comments Friday evening (2008-09-12), and randomly select a winner of the painted Monster Hoodie.
A free keyboard!
