So this time I'm determined. I will do it. no matter what the pain, this time I'm following through
Learning guitar
I can't remember how many times I have tried to learn, but I always stop before I make any real progress. But this time, encourage by a visit from a very musical family, I will stick it through. I even bought some new strings which I'm hoping will make my learning a little less painful. (nylon instead of metal ... 40 year old metal strings ... ouch! The sound isn't as nice, but I'm hoping to work my way back up to metal strings ... in a few years :P )
Only a little less, though. ouch! I just had a good hour of practice amd now that my fingers are starting to get numb, I'm noticing that my whole hand/arm cramps up when holding the simplest chord positions! I figure it's like exercise: i need to develop the right muscles.
But it's all good. My goal is to be able to lead worship ... it may be a long time off, but at least i have something to work towards. That always helps :)
