Hey Rockin,
That's the biggest problem for me in trying to pick up the guitar and play it again - the tuning part. It was always hard for me to tune, but I did eventually learn to do it fairly quickly (like 5 minutes) I am not good at hearing the differences in the notes. Now I can't even get it tuned right with an electronic tuner. I have no trouble finding voice notes and never need a beginning note prompt, so I don't understand why I have so much trouble with musical instruments. I also have an auto harp that I dearly love and I haven't been able to play it in years because I can't tune it. It has way more strings than a guitar, so it's kind of a lost cause for me.

Your "singing" dogs reminded me of my little poodle who died years ago. She loved to sing and especially loved songs that started with the word "Oh", like Unchained Melody (Oh my love, my darling, I've hungered for your touch) and Oh Holy Night. She was so much fun.

You are amazing - you're going to teach yourself violin, the hardest instrument there is, with a CD. All right now! I want to hear about the progress you're making.
Smooches, Mr Music,
Keri
