Just because I can....this is me playing my guitar in my front yard a few minutes ago.

 

And this is my eldest...who has suddenly blossomed into a very pretty young lady.

I'm learning that!  I'm having so much fun with it now that I've made some progress!

GREAT eye!  Yes, it was....I was strumming the chorus of 'Turn The Page'.....my fingers hurt and I was giving them a break by playing something easy.

Might just be the glasses, but in that first picture you look either angry or deep in thought. I'm glad your enjoying your guitar I'll agree, pretty blossoming lady there. And nice flowers too

You look bad ass! What I am wondering is where in the heck you found capris for short people!! Let me in on the secret! Shea looks gorgeous, too.

I was thinking about chord changes and strum patterns, I think.

And nice flowers too

TY...that's a fuschia.  It just started blooming....

Hehe.....thanks!!

What I am wondering is where in the heck you found capris for short people!! Let me in on the secret!

Actually, those are Tommy's that I got at the thrift store for $3.  I wear them all the time, mainly because they're capri's that look like capri's on me...not pants that are just slightly too short.  Most of the time when I get capri's I have to re-hem them.

Shea looks gorgeous, too.

Thank you, I'll tell her you said that!

Hey! Ya'll could team up and be another Judds!

BTW, sorry I haven't been posting of late, been kinda busy lately with a few "revisions" @ work so have been a little "hit and miss" on showing up here!

Also, I got some sunglasses like that...

Actually, she said that she wants a guitar for her birthday.  D and I figured we'd mark her coming into teenage-hood with a cool acoustic and some accessories.  Hopefull by next summer rolls around Shea and I will be able to sit on the patio together in the evening and entertain our neighbors with some tunes!

Also, I got some sunglasses like that...

Thos are Gargoyles, and I got them on sale last spring....I've had them for over a year, which is a record for me because I usually lose sunglasses a week after I get them (and just because i said that I'll prolly misplace mine tomorrow!!)

Look like a rock star. RRROAAAARR!!!!!!

TY...that's a fuschia. It just started blooming....


The one in the left corner's a wave petunia, right? Don't think I missed that!!!

Congrats on pickin' by the way. You're at least halfway to a record label. If you can play three chords and pick, you can play half the guitar music ever written. Which of course is more than I can do on gitfiddle. Plus, like I've said, you've got the look........

lol...Karen...you're just so damned cool. Not to mention your kiddos! I'd love to be a fly on the wall in your house just for an hour.

And I absolutely ADORE fuschias...we get one every year.

Dharma, what a nice looking guitar. I really like the colour. I had an Epiphone Riviera many years ago that was similarly coloured. And it looks like you really starting to get comfortable with it as well.

Shea reminds me of my neice, who is about the same age. Similar features and long, long legs. What a lovely young lady.

Me too but I only lose expensive pairs. The cheapies I am wearing at the moment I've had for over 2 years now and even if I throw them in a rubbish bin, they still come back.

I will Aeryck, and thank you!

Marcie:

It's probably not what you expect....a lot of shouting (in our family we all talk at the same time so if you want to be heard you just have to talk louder than everyone else) and a few fights (the boys bicker, which leads to fisticuffs)...but we do talk about a lot of stuff that I guess most people wouldn't consider 'normal'.

 

lol...Karen...you're just so damned cool.

Ha!!  I might look cool, but in reality I'm just a geeky wanna-be hippie!  Thanks anyway though!

The more tunes I learn, the more I see that this is the case.  D, Am, C and G all seem to be the most popular.

Those are Impatiens, btw.

Trudy:

That's what those are in the blue pot.  I have some different color ones in the backyard, and I also have some seedlings that I'm going to transfer this weekend.

Maso:

I am.  It doesn't feel awkward anymore.

long, long legs.

I know!  I was looking at her picture just now and and it just occured to me that that child has legs for freakn' miles!!  Long arms, too!  She's only 1" shorter than me now, and she's got bigger feet and hands.  Once she grows out of her gangly stage she's going to be quite a looker, I think - but then I'm her mother so I'm biased!

 

Me too but I only lose expensive pairs.

The ones I'm wearing were on sale and I got them for $20 (they were normally $100), and so far I've been really good about not losing them....the cheapo ones I get always get lost or sat on or broken in some way.  D's always going on at me to get quality stuff, and those were the first 'quality' pair I've ever owned - and they were well worth it.

You forgot one there good-looking. What about "f"? And BTW mom's no slouch in the leg department either. Are you married? If so don't let you old man see this post. He might get upset.
