Hello my name is Dan. I’m married to my high school sweetheart, last summer was 27 years. I’ve got four children, and just became a grandfather. I enjoy music of all kinds but my favorite is Native American Flute and other world flute music. I play the NAF and currently own about 200 flutes. My objectives are to be able to play any and all flutes of the world. I also hope to release my first cd very soon. I enjoy teaching people how to play and express themselves with the flute. I lead a flute circle in Baraboo, WI called SPIRIT LAKE FLUTE CIRCLE. Started back in 2005 website is www.spiritlakeflutecircle.com

I’ve been playing for just over 4

Also play many other instruments

Sing with your flute, and give thanks for another day.

Blessings

Hi Bearbelly,

What a great poll. I hope more people will come here and find it.

I have been playing the piano since I was five years old. I also play a baritone ukelele, as well as the smaller one. I play accordion, self-taught, so I'm not fantastic, but I did play for an Octoberfest a few years ago, and it was really fun.

I have released three CD's, one original, one Christmas and one which is just a few pieces I really enjoy playing. I have also played on other people's CD's.

I've been musical director for four musicals in a local theater near me, as well as accompanied performers in San Francisco and New York. I played at the White House when I was seventeen, with a group of blind and visually impaired kids, and have even played for Julie Andrews, but that was many, many years ago.

I look forward to going to your web site, and hope others will take the poll and tell us about themselves.

Thank you for starting this.

Debbie

I too can play several instruments. I've always been musically inclined, can pretty much pick up any instrument and learn how to play within minutes. I played the Clarinet for 9 years. I gave it up after I graduated high school. I really do miss it. Playing the clarinet was my one place I felt at peace when playing it. I always felt like I had no worries in the world. I know since you guys are also musically inclined, that you can understand what I mean when I say I'm "At Peace". Music is what helps me keep my sanity!!! Thanks for posting this!! I will definitely keep up with this one!! Music is such Beautiful Art!!! May it bring peace to others around the world!!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
