Just turned 40 and figured it was time to fulfill my rock and roll dreams. Also, I've been trying to teach my kids the value of carving out a little time each day to better themselves in some fashion -- practicing a sport, working on math, reading, etc. What better way to get that message to sink in then by showing them? I'm hoping that even an old dog can learn a new skill if he puts aside 30 mins per day, every day.

I'm on day 5 ... fighting sore fingers and frustration, but having fun.
