I am still kickin it, I got a tattoo and a guitar and I am letting my hair and beard grow. I got a dog that has no teeth, i lost my job, i lost my wife, I lost my mind.
I purchased a guitar a few weeks ago, I can pick and strum a song that sounds something like happy birthday. a few more months the fingers might start to make some musical notes. After going through a severe case of frozen shoulder, and everything else. it is rewarding to keep growing, and when you are feeling bad just remember " these days will pass "

Hello Elmer,
Good to see you checking in. Great you got yourself guitar, hopefully you can keep it and update us with some new songs you learned.
Best,

We should form an AS band. Every few months I pick up my guitar, and try to make some music. I am not sure my wife thinks it is music.

Yes we should come up with a song about it. I what should we name the band? Mig and the spondyleers? trains pains and biological injections...oh yeah.
I am getting past the painful fingers one day at a time, I know, if I work hard at practicing I can eventually play some beautiful tunes. I dont expect to ever be great, but I do expect from myself, to be good.

"Mig and the spondyleers?"  I'm betting that you'd be great at writing lyrics - have fun with your guitar!

I love you guys and girls, so, I am improving. actually the dog has stopped howling. and my fingers are sore everyday, all day. but they are getting calloused a little more everyday I would guess a couple more months and the finger pain should be gone.
I am enjoying the practice, its not like drudgery that I expected, and I have learned to mix it up a bit now.
I didnt think I was musical and I still dont, I am blessed.
