Hi Everybody! This has been a great weekend! I picked up my first pay check in months plus my last full check of unemployment, and yesterday, I was able to go out and get the drum set stuff out of layaway. I brought it home, went shopping for clothes, and I started working on the drum set in the evening. I took the set apart, cleaned the drums and hardware, put replacement heads on them, and tuned up the drums. But oh! There was a catch, or a couple of them, really. Turns out the shop didn't include the snare stand and a cymbal stand. I was like, gggrrrrrr, what happened? So I called them today and picked up the remaining stuff. I also went and got an extra cymbal stand. Anyway, it sounds great, and I actually have two drum sets set up in my room, leaving not much room... I'm happy to have made it thus far, and hopefully within a year, I'll be able to be ready to gig with someone (as I'll have the drum set AND the skills). Next weekend is when I pay the car off and start to look for things to fix on the car. I hope that the temp assignment continues for at least 2-3 more weeks. Woo hoo! Stephanie
