My fingers hurt


Normally I would say it was a horrible weekend when your oldest is laying on the couch sick the whole time. That part of the weekend was awful. I hate not being able to take the pain away immediately for my kids. But on the brighter side, I picked up my new acoustic guitar that I have been wanting for quite sometime. I actually stopped playing for almost two months because I hated the one I had. It made my fingers hurt! I know I know they are suppose to. But this guitar was a beast. My friend who has been teaching me said it will go away after a couple of weeks of playing... It never did.

Back to my point... So while my girl was trying to sleep this cold or whatever off, I ran over and grabbed my new baby. I came home and played, played and played some more. I have been learning a little CCR Bad Moon Rising. Annnnd I gotta say.... I suck. But my fingers love me for not killing them all the time now. So I spent the entire weekend inside with my sick girl which has been shitty. But I got to play music really badly with fingers still intact.

What I am getting at, is don't skimp on a cheap guitar even when you are starting out.
