Celeste unbound

Monday 15th Jun I rearranged my bedroom furniture so I can move the piano stool freely and access the pedals without being cramped. Functionality 👍🏻 Share

Loving Celeste

Wednesday 10th Jun This piano is called Celeste. I bought her in London in 1999. My Uncomfortable Challenge is to play Celeste every day across July. Why is that Uncomfortable? I played okay as a kid and teen. Piano was important to me. But I gave up piano at a point where I gave up too many things that were important to me. My teacher warned me I'd regret it  and I did. In my adult life I've tried a number of times to start playing again, but I don't have the skills I once did, and that frustrates me. So this July I am going to persist daily despite the frustration. Thank you for your support. Share
