I swear I'm going to install timers on these lights! Hi, anyone who's here...since I can't see you.

I guess it is just me since Lolly doesn't like the dark

 

[JennyNo1]

I guess it is just me since Lolly doesn't like the dark

I bet she's here, just sneaking up on you.

 

[cole4258]

Never know about that Lolly.

How are you doing tonight

 

[JennyNo1]

Never know about that Lolly.

How are you doing tonight

I'm good - I thought I was coming down with something last night, but I feel better today. Yea me!

Glad your not sick. Some of these threads have contagious things floating around.

I know - had to steer clear of some of the people in the Texas thread.

I'm a great nurse. Took care of Vincess. I can take of any

Use the hand sanitizer at the door

Well, no offense, but I'd rather just not get sick in the first place!

 

[cole4258]

What a good nurse.

 

[Lollygirl26]

What a good nurse.

I am. I have great bedside manner

Careful Lolly usually naps here in the afternoon

Oh and she likes it with the lights off

That's ok, I can nap in my room. It's nice and cozy.

I found an album I'd been looking for this evening at the used book store. I love this song - it kind of makes me think that if Babs could find her love late in life, maybe there's hope.

Hello Jenny! How you doin?

 

[JennyNo1]

Hello Jenny! How you doin?

Hey cutie pie! I'm good - how YOU doin'?

 

[PeteHulbert37]

Hey cutie pie! I'm good - how YOU doin'?

I'm fantastic!

 

[JennyNo1]

I'm fantastic!

Well, we knew that! Big plans for the weekend?

 

[JennyNo1]

I want a new guitar. And maybe a mandolin. That is all.

 

[RubenesqueAphrodite]

Come on down! I'll let you play mine

 

[JennyNo1]

Come on down! I'll let you play mine

The green one?

 

[RubenesqueAphrodite]

The green one?

well, yes, that one, or my Baby Taylor. Haven't gotten used to that one yet. Needs new strings. So does my mandolin, for that matter. I got everything out last weekend and did an assessment of what needed what. I'm getting two new sets of guitar strings, a new set of mandolin strings, and a new set of violin strings.

Only thing..this had to come in waves. Those violin strings are Pirastro, and I thought they were expensive back in the day..
Holy cow!

I'll have to suck a few dicks before I can get them..
I'll probably get some cheapos until I can get good replacements..but they just don't sound the same.

You're a few levels above me, I can see. I have a classical Yamaha I've played since I was a kid. But the neck is wider and the action higher than on an acoustic, plus it's just a different sound. I want to learn more of a finger style of playing, which I think should be easier on the acoustic. I haven't touched it or bought strings for it in years - I've no clue what good ones are going to cost me.

good guitar strings won't set you back that much. Go to musiciansfriend dot com for some of the best prices I've seen. Violin strings can get pricey, though. You have traditional gut core, synthetic gut core, and steel core. .. Hell, ive got two bows that need repair, too.

I I'mm not very good, but I enjoy it.
