Goldilocks and the 50 Guitars

Good evening everyone. Hope you all enjoyed the weekend. Another busy, yet cold week over here in New Berlin. Tuesday, Jill (along with Mia) voted before school, and myself after I dropped her off. Luckily, Wisconsin voted Bernie, giving the hopeful Democrat another must-need win. I sincerely hope he can keep up the momentum. Mia was bummed the voting wasn't dropping a piece of paper into a box labeled for each candidate. Sorry kid. Trump was handed a loss by the bizarre Ted Cruz. We'll see who gets the next win this week. Wednesday after school, Mia and I bummed around a bit and visited the soccer and hockey stores. Only reason why she wanted to go there, was to see the dogs. No dogs in Hockey Haven, but Chester the corgy came out to say hi at Stefans. Later, we hit up Guitar Center. We haven't stepped foot in there in a very very long time. My buddy recently told me that have updated the drum room with e-kits everywhere, all connected to monitors so you don't need a set of headphones. 

Mia had fun testing them all out and was bit confused that she could hear them without headphones. She really liked the guitar room, especially the mandolin and ukulele's. She said she had to test every single one of them to see which one was the right one. I love that Mia's always had this interest in music and I hope as she grows older, she continues it. Earlier that day, I started painting the Torrent Tom. Sprayed a coat of paint, waited an hour, did another and let it dry the rest of the day. Friday, I taped off where I was going to paint black and did some more painting. Had to wait a full day to see the end results. 

Saturday I woke up to watch the Chelsea game. The service wasn't working well, but I had found a different site that would work. It was a frustrating match and I ended up going out to breakfast with Jill and Mia. They ended up losing 0-1. Miazga made a terrible mistake costing them the game and their first league loss since December. Didn't help the midfielders weren't doing much. No reason to watch the highlights. I've got a feeling quite a few players are going to be sold when Conte takes over. Later, I watched the Pens vs Flyers game while Jill and Mia went shopping. Pens lost but it didn't matter. Saturday night, we made dinner and watched Mia's latest Monster High movie. A quiet but much-enjoyed family night.

Sunday's always go by far to fast (like Saturday's) We did some cleaning and later I worked till 10. 
This week, I need to put together the Torrent tom (turned out alright), get some photos of it and do a test video for the Flood. I've got a handful of other projects to complete as well. Mia's got a birthday party to go to on Saturday while Jill's going to go to the JBF sale. 

That's all for now, thanks for reading!
