Sounds sooo familiar.....sold my mom's spinet when she died because I already had one....bought it for dauhter for the Mandantory Lesson thing. She likes piano, but hated her teacher.

I can only sorta play it....chords and melody. Can't read bass clef at all. I've told her that when she is settled someday, it is hers. An electronic keyboard or photo works just as well for theory stuff.
