Talking well!

i thought i would pick up the viola today and play a little. 10 minutes into it i had to put it down. the discomfort on my collarbone is a definite issue. now i have invest in a new rest...*sigh* there i was all excited that my sheet music had come in (for those of you familiar with classical music i am working on the Telemann viola conerto in G major )

well no sooner i get thru the first movement, i cant play anymore. i will have to order my new rest on the way home from work. i guess thats a good thing? who knows!

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Yes order the rest for sure. I would love to hear you play somtime. I love classical music.....yes elevator music. I suppose you would have had to learn to play a instrument to enjoy it.

How wonderful that you play the viola! I could never get into the clef that violas play in. Such a rich sound.

I was a horn player myself...trumpet/french horn.

Hope you can get your new rest soon.
