Great minds think alike! It's not quite the same, but I was really excited to have it. I just need to get a stand for it (we bought it used) so then I can actually play it!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3667923606438454545.post-25997869127785136642010-03-01T07:54:28.064-06:002010-03-01T07:54:28.064-06:00Another thought for Kimberly,
Whatever savings pl...Another thought for Kimberly,<br /><br />Whatever savings plan you all were using to set aside money for your recent trip to Canada, maybe you could transfer over that monthly allowance towards a piano savings plan. (Because I would certainly encourage you to pay for your piano - be it used or new - outright. I think you were right before when you said that renting/financing is not a wise investment.)<br /><br />I don't know how good the piano players in your house are, but you can easily find an adequate used piano for a beginner for about $300. For an intermediate player, the range can go from as low as $400 to as high as $1500. Anything above $1500 is probably in near-perfect/like-new condition and would be preferred to an advanced player. (That is, if prices where you live are at all similar to MO).<br /><br />I was able to get my piano from a man who upgraded to a grand, and no longer needed the little console piano. Because I bought from an accomplished player, I was able to trust his estimation that the piano was in excellent condition, for its age. (I need to tune it after moving it). <br /><br />Anyway, I just want to encourage you that you CAN get a piano, and probably sooner than you think. You could buy a new piano for what you must have saved up to go to Canada. (That is meant to be encouraging, to say "Just think, in such-and-such amount of time you could have a brand new piano.")<br /><br />I have prayed for your family to be able to save for a piano and buy one soon. I will continue praying.<br /><br />BethanyBethany W.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05849311381535204559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3667923606438454545.post-68105668648471614142010-03-01T07:18:47.199-06:002010-03-01T07:18:47.199-06:00April,

I can't make more room in your house, April, but perhaps a keyboard might be a good solution for a while? And, Kimberly, keep watching Craigslist and the newspaper. While most of the stuff is not worth the asking price... someday you might find a gem!<br /><br />BethanyBethany W.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05849311381535204559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3667923606438454545.post-76784345513572229412010-03-01T06:04:10.059-06:002010-03-01T06:04:10.059-06:00Beautiful!Beautiful!MamaHenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12933602709751520328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3667923606438454545.post-46561756550282620762010-02-28T19:57:28.683-06:002010-02-28T19:57:28.683-06:00And a PTL on that!
