This is a cool idea for a blog. I'm proud of you, because I think this will help beginner guitar players and folks that just like to sing, but can't remember the lyrics to these songs. Great job! Your hubby, Steve
ReplyDeleteGOOD JOB! Look at you! Startin' a brand new blog and didn't even lose the old one!
ReplyDeleteNow we gotta figure out how you can put a button on your side bar to get to the blog. I'm proud of you too!

Hi Cindy, I was a little bit scared to hit that button and make this new blog, but I knew that you were behind me . . . supporting my efforts. Thanks for all your help . . . I hope you will enjoy the songs that I post. Keep a song in your heart, Connie :)
DeleteI will give it a try, looks easy enough even for me!
ReplyDeleteHi, I am so happy to see you here. You sound like you are a beginner, is this right? Well, I am planning on posting a lot of easy beginner songs. I hope you find this helpful and that it helps you build a songbook. Keep a song in your heart, and thank you so much for following. Connie :)
DeleteConnie, I am going to show this to my hubby. When we met (about 7 yrs. ago), he was wanting to take beginner guitar lessons. He met me....and the rest is HISTORY! I think he may enjoy this, I will let you know! And I hope you make some of those potting sticks very soon! Thank you so much for the compliment on something so easy to make...you will have a lot of FUN with them! From one sweetie to another....Roxie
ReplyDeleteRoxie, Thanks so much for following my little guitar playing blog. I hope that this does stir-up the interest that your husband had to learn guitar. It is so much fun and it's the instrument that is portable enough to play on the front porch and carry on camping trips. I have only been playing for about three years and I wish that I had started earlier. I taught myself and now I play with two little groups and we gave so much fun. Thank you for visiting, for following and for your wonderful words of encouragement. Connie :)
DeleteI love this song, but didn't really know all the words. I'm your newest follower!
