Ahh, sorry to hear it - hope FIL feels better soon!
It's so good when you start playing your first songs, even if they're shit songs. The first ones I learned included Sting's Fields of Gold and some horrible nonsense by Billy fucking Joel. There's no better motivation to improve than the thought that you when you get better, you can move onto playing something that isn't terrible XD
Get a practice pad for the rudiments, Trunkie! Neighbours love 'em, probably. Almost certainly more than a set of acoustic drums anyway, heh.
What's everyone using for listening to edrums, btw? I've got a set of Vic Firth SIH2 cans, but they're so uncomfortable I top out at about 1-2 hours wear time, even with a DIY memory foam cushion under the headband. My birthday's coming up, so I can treat myself to something else less anatomy-torturing.

Yeah the lessons and teacher are great although had to scale back recently due to my father in law being poorly hoping to get straight back into it asap ( likely after Xmas )
