Thanks! That's certainly been the case for me—improvisation is easier. Remembering back, that's how it was for the other instruments too. Maybe I'll record something when I can play more than bits and

What an amazing find that subscription service was! Culture adds such a layer of rich complexity and enjoyment to our lives, it's a shame so many leave it untapped. I've been trying to learn to play the

Congratulations on your achievement! That had to feel amazing when you crossed the finish line! What brand(s) of chocolate do you prefer? I also try to have a little dark chocolate every day but have heard
