Thank you very much @stevieblues !

Thanks @Cadgirl . All CCR/Fogarty tunes have great memories. Was a great time to grow up.

Fantastic wins all around @Mrfredsporty ! Congrats on starting the daily challenges! That’s a great step to learning foundational skills, such as scales, improv, rhythm, and key chords, chord transitions, etc. I think it’s awesome that you began your guitar journey at 78. It has nothing to do with age. It has everything to do with making a decision to follow a dream and actually doing it (while having fun)! Btw, a pick can be a great friend. Don’t give up on it.

@sahardellamorady Glad you’ve learned about favoriting the ones you want to save. I agree with @ChuckS to not sweat having missed 2 weeks of lessons, as they rotate back around about every 8 months. Another good suggestion is to save a copy of the odf lesson and you can revisit it that way. I have the videos saved in my favorites if you know which ones you want to access, you are welcome to search them on my member profile.

Happy 3rd TACiversary @SherryH ! It sounds as if you’ve had a good 3 years and are still progressing, which I find inspirational. I remember when I first thought I’d take up guitar. I thought I’d be playing like a pro in no time, well, knocked on my arse a bit there. It’s definitely hard work, but the outcome and small wins make it so much fun and enjoyable.

Thanks for the video. I have a long way to go to easily transition and walk ups.

Great tune. Very bluesy.

Awesome win @stevieblues!

Hey Terrry, really enjoyed this – maybe slate for your next EP.

[Loraine]

Hey Don – yes since we just finished the last lesson for April, the new month begins Moenday. All April material is archived until rotates back (about every 8 months). If you favorited any, they’ll be available on your profile.

Great routine @Tonia_v Consistency wins. You’ll probably find that you get better playing with your friends than if you only took online lessons. What a great thing to have friends like that.

Enjoy the strings @Joemama . New strings make it feel like a new guitar. That’s really odd that they didn’t label or even color code the strings. That must have been an inconvenience.

Thank you so much @digenu7 ! What a nice complement!

[Loraine]

Thanks @Philb . I’m a CCR fan from way back.

Thank you so much for the detailed explanation. I can see where it would seem onerous and difficult when learning to recognize stress, thoughts, tension, and the act of letting it go. I have fibromyalgia, and I carry pain and tension constantly, and it is such a constant that I don’t recognize the stress, tension, and even the pain. I have to consciously think about it sometimes to recognize what are of the body is currently affected (which is usually most of it). I’ve tried meditation, mindfulness, body mapping in the past. It’s probably a good time to look into some new techniques and give it another whirl.
