Do Something Fun for Yourself / Guitar

This has nothing to with Diabetes but I just wanted to share with you that I am starting to learn how to play the Guitar at 48. You are never too old to start something new. I knew nothing about music - absolutely nothing except that I liked to listen to music. I didn't even know the musical alphabet which is just 7 letters A, B, C, D, E, F and G. I had never played an instrument in my life except the flute in the 4th grade. I can still play the song I learned (Mary had a little lamb) if someone hands me a flute but other than that my music knowledge was very limited.

So I bought myself a used acoustic/electric guitar off of EBay and started teaching myself from youtube and other free sites on the Internet. I also started taking lessons from a local guitar teacher in town and that has helped me alot. He is leaving town though so I'll need to find a new teacher shortly. It' s been a very fun journey and I'm glad I did it!

Enjoy your day!

Wecome!

Hello and welcome! I have been living with diabetes since I was 10 years old and I just turned 48 - so 38 years now. I never thought I'd live past 30 and it wasn't a negative thing it was just my thought process about diabetes when I was younger. Probably from the story's I was told in addition to the lack of medical information back in the 1970's. I'm healthy and happy and want to share my life with other people who have diabetes - that is the main reason for my blog. I'll be sharing mostly diabetes/health information but I will also share about learning guitar at 48, gardening, health and pet information too. I've added a couple of links and want you to know that I will write later about Hydrogen Peroxide Therapy and my experience with blood sugar control. I also want you to know that coconut oil and avacados are healthy food! I'm hoping to share some really delicious healthy recipes with you too! Enjoy your day!
