Stumbling, or moving forward?

Hi Fo, sorry I missed the party last night. Although as you can see from my post it wasn't really a bad thing....

My main reason for posting my observations was so I gave a record later. I try my best to have no expectations. Might mean something, might not. I'll only really know months from now. Oddly, I'm OK with that. I'd like to say that means I've found patience, but that doesn't seem right. It's something good though I think.

As for guitar, I still blow. I'm better than I was, but I can't switch between chords very well. I'm working on my finger strength and calluses right now, which is why I was doing my minor and major pentatonic scales last night.

But like life, I am improving and having more fun. That's all I need. Oh, and my youngest son joined in with his guitar for a bit. And then my wife tried playing his guitar-first time in years she showed any interest (although I guess she had taken some lesions when she was very little). Making a mental note that if she keeps being interested I might buy her a guitar and we can all play together. Don't worry though-that's only gonna happen if we get through this rough patch, so maybe 2 years from now.
