Since I've left the beginner level many years ago, I am using a better recorder now and gave the other one to my teacher, so that she can give it to some kid who just wants to try it out or whose parents can't afford one.

Hi Jazz...Jan. 02, 2014--STL kindness this morning:<br /><br />Hi Jazzy, <br />I work at a university and my colleagues are mostly in my building, but two individuals are in two other buildings each. <br /><br />We're all back to campus today. And I noticed that one of these fellows had a reimbursement check in his mail box that arrived today So I called him to tell him about it since it doesn't get over to our department to check his postal mail everyday. He has heart issues which affect his mobility--even though he is in the building next door. So when I spoke with him, I offered, and then took him his reimbursement check and his other mail this morning that he had piled up to save him the trip.<br />Cheers! Grati ;-><br />P.S. Since our secretary is still out today, I'm hoping one of the few fellows that is in will pick up the large and heavy twenty or so 2014 instruments catalogs that came in for everyone. Fingers crossed.Gratiana Lovelacehttp://www.gratianads90.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4609231425750918115.post-26542357726889214432014-01-01T21:24:54.602-05:002014-01-01T21:24:54.602-05:00A few to add:
