In fact, I did. I'm anticipating delivery around noon tomorrow.We had a meeting with a small group from our church yesterday afternoon. My wife made a lemon meringue pie (a specialty of hers) to share in honor of may birthday.
Last night, we had a ground lamb. eggplant, and tomato dinner that is always a very good meal.
Thanks for all the birthday wishes.

It's here! I muddled through a Cole Porter tune (You'd Be So Nice to Come Home To) and Theme from The Apartment before I had to leave for a physical therapy appointment.I'm very, very rusty because I couldn't play at all while I was not in my home, and when I finally got there my old Yamaha Clavinova had broken and couldn't be repaired.
I'll play some more after dinner tonight.

My youngest son, his wife, and our grandaughter arrived for a short visit on Thursday and left about midday on Sunday. We subsequently heard Brahms' 4th Symphony and Kachaturian's Violin Concerto at Heinz Hall so I haven't been at the new piano too much. My older son has played it a little (he's a much better pianist than me). I had a doctor's appointment and physical therapy today, so it wasn't until I got home from those that I had a chance to play a little again before dinnertime.I must say that it is a real delight. The feel is very responsive l and the sound is very, very impressive. I've been using the Bosendorfer recordings almost exclusively. If someone comes to Pittsburgh, I'd be happy to share some time at the keyboard with other players.
