one goal for 2008

last night for fhe after getting our rings cleaned (now they are really sparkly and shiny) and having some good greek food (thanks to a $2.99 coupon for gyros), i began working on one of my goals for 2008...learning to play the guitar! it's actually been my goal for over a year and dave even taught me a few chords last year. but i wasn't the best student and forgot everything (oops), so we are starting over. last night i cut my nails (yes, i am getting serious) and dave re-taught me a couple of chords (and my finger tips are feeling it today). good thing my teacher is patient because i get frustrated with myself easily...well, mainly with my fingers because they *refuse* to curve. seriously, they have a mind of their own and i keep muting strings. but i am determined to learn, so here we go!
