おぼえた日記
I took my piano lesson in the morning. I began to practice the piano at age four and had been practicing it for about ten years. I started again 14 years ago when my daughter began to practice it. Since then I have took part in the piano concert once a year. This year I played Beethoven's sonate "Pathetic". I'm glad that I can play the piano again.
Though I'm busy with a lot of work to do, I have many things I want to do. For example, playing the piano, studying English and mathmatics, growing vegetables, walking, reading books, trying new recipes and so on. Some of my friends always ask me how I can manage. I have no difficulty doing what I want to do.
Of course I know first things first: I need to keep my livingroom in order. That's easier said than done.

Unfortunately, my daughter and son stopped practicing the piano many years ago. I'm the only person that has been practicing it in my family.
Oh, you've played the chello! That's nice! The sweet tone of a chello always touches me. I love it! Both playing and listening to music make me happy.
