The fingers on my left hand are really sore tonight.

I play a lot of guitar, both when I am teaching and when I am jamming or recording. I have good callouses on my left finger-tips, but tonight I reached the point where I was glad my lessons were over. My fingers hurt! I am relaxing now, and glad that my guitar is in its case, where it can't hurt me. I haven't done my DD today. Did anything of substance happen in the outside world? Gas prices dropped again here. Maybe I'll give that little factoid its own post. I need a smoke. (fumbling emoji)

@simplfred Here's my tune with the most views. But I did not write it. Pass it on to your friends if you like it. Heh.

@LindaOHio And I heard from Vanny. Some of her messages were winding up in my SPAM folder. I have no idea why.

I'm sorry your fingers hurt from so much use playing the guitar. I don't know if anything of substance happened yesterday.

It is understandable, try to rest your hand for 2 or 3 days.
