@RODGER Glad you’re able to make it back. I’m sorry to hear of the loss you recently experienced. And I hope you were able to have a nice Thanksgiving in spite of your loss. Life tends to be difficult, but you’ve found a sliver of joy in your guitar journey. Just do the best you can with the daily challenges, for at least 10 minutes per day. And then mark it complete. Glad you’re having fun with it!!

Now I’m the complete opposite of @Moonhare , I need the tab to make sense of everything. However, I typically follow the video first, but then I’m usually lost trying to remember what Tony shows us, so I can’t wait to get to the tab.

Great job on this fingerpicking version @Philb ! I know that look of concentration, because I have the same look on my face when playing. lol Keep up the great work!

Hi Karen – In addition to the stretching, keep in mind that your fingers will become more flexible through practice and building up stamina and strength in your fingers. If you’re having a difficult time, you can always practice with a capo on the 5th fret and begin there, and then gradually move the capo back up the neck to the 3rd fret and then eventually have no capo on at all when making the chords.

Welcome to the TAC community @Danny75 ! I had never played guitar before either before starting, and I actually called strings ‘keys’ – lol. Great advice to begin with the 30 days to play and then the next 6 chords after that. I didn’t begin the daily challenges until after I completed these. Be kind and patient with yourself, and always remember to have fun (you can’t help but have fun in the 30 days to play course).

I print out some and save others to my laptop or tablet (iPad Pro). At the beginning I printed everything, but then I started to be lazy about putting tabs and chord sheets in my binders, and so much loose paper was floating around and getting trashy looking. So, now I print out only what I’m currently, actively working on. I do ‘favorite’ all the daily challenges, because they don’t come around again for about 8-9 months, and I do goof around with some of them occasionally.
Your sister only being 40+ pounds just really tears my heart up. I’m so sorry for her and for the family having to experience that. If you ever want to talk about anything, please feel free to IM me through the messaging found in the drop down next to your profile at the top of the page.

Really appreciate your support and kind words @KevinZ . I’ve loved this song since I was a child. I’ll have to try and sing it while playing. I’m not very confident while doing either. Just a work in progress.
