Greetings, whoever-reads-this!
I'm starting to bounce back after this past year and all its troubles. My brother is in what I surmise to be a better place, and life here is picking back up where it left off.
Music news. The guitar is getting a more-or-less daily workout these days, and I'm making more videos. Many of them end up on the cutting room floor, so to speak, but there is usually at least one survivor. I'm workin' it..
In July of this year, I'll have been playing guitar for 60 years. I've just about got my picking hand where I want it.
So far no gigs for 2026, but I'd just as soon get through the Winter first. Something always comes up.
Old guy news. I've got to have an operation in the next couple months or so to take care of some plumbing problems. Losing a Kidney and the Sigmoid Colon. Nothing life-threatening, just stuff that has to go. They're supposed to keep me for another 2 to 5 days after that. I've never had to stay there before, so this will be a new experience. Maybe not the most pleasant experience, but it's new- and just a couple days.
The upside to these extra medical appointments is that you get to know your Doctors and Nurses and Techs a little bit better, which makes the whole process smoother. Still a pain in the ass, but easier…
The other adventure for the year is getting Dentures. That all begins in April. Hopefully these are all the things I've gotta go through as far as my health, at least for awhile.
This is probably too much information, but oh well. Thanks for stopping in and wading through it. Much love to you! More later.
