Haley, I don't have this, wish I'd seen your thread earlier, I was with a group of ladies earlier this evening who are into things like this, they might have.

When is Micah's b-day?

I can carry a tune and I love to sing...just not in front of anyone..LOL. I have a karaoke machine and I love getting it out and singing.

Well the lesson went well. My teacher told me that I'm lucky I understand the notes because half the people he sees just can't wrap their heads around reading guitar notes. He gave me some simple exercises to practice, which I did tonight, and I've improved already

He did tell me I need new strings though, so I should get that done before next Monday's lesson.
I really love it so far!

You'll be really good if you keep practicing. Guitar music is so soothing.

You'll have the guitar figured out in no time!!! That'll be so cool when you can play it!!

Your secret is safe with me

My due date was March 28th, i was hoping for an April baby, the birthstone are diamonds, that would have been a nice mothers day ring. But i was glad i was early, i was miserable... Hey if i forget ...

I played guitar growing up. I regret not keeping it up, but what I enjoyed was playing with my friends. After I married and moved away I never had friends who played so I quit. I am sure you will love it. Once you master an instrument all the others come far easier to you, IMO you will be surprised I think by what is actually familiar to you from playing the piano!
good luck and enjoy!

way cool!! keep it up. have you had the lesson yet?

i have had a guitar for 30 years. i started at 18, played about a year the only off and on, mostly off.
i picked it back up last spring, and have been taking lessons since. it is muy wonderful. i have an acoustic.
i went to a college sale where they sell off instruments from the music program and i went just to look~ came away with one with a pickup and a built in tuner.
i really want to get a classical one next since that's what i started with.
we had a recital in november!!

i've had a guitar for 30 years, i took lessons for about a year, the off and on, mostly off so i'm not very good.
i picked it up last spring again, been taking lessons. i went to a guitar sale at a college in january to just look (yeah sure!)... they were selling off music program instruments, and i came away with one with a pickup and built in tuner.
