I don’t know where I got semi motivated lately to fix my life…or try to for the 100th time.
Actually I do know, I think it’s the anxiety I’ve been having with my customer service job and I’m trying to do things to feel like I’m succeeding at something and have been thinking of even Youtubing more and blogging more and also playing my uke again since it’s been a hot minute.
Now that I don’t have a cough anymore post-pneumonia, I realize I can prob start singing again and playing and posting covers.
I have a fav song right now and would love to do a cover on uke.
I was so excited and today grabbed my uke, dusted it off, and searched the chords after tuning my baby.

Broken heart 💔
Come to find out when I tried playing the chords, my fingers don’t do what they used to.
In other words, I haven’t played in so long that they hurt soon after trying to play and the chords for the song I wanted to do a cover for are hard chords.
Right away I felt that feeling of losing motivation and wanting to quit.
However, after some time I came to the conclusion that I just need to restart this journey with my uke.
In other words, I am going to find basic songs to learn again and chords and strumming patterns and start out by posting those covers first to get motivated.
I also am going to find covers other people have done to get motivated seeing them play and sing.
Suffice to say, I think I just saved myself from quitting uke for good just because I naturally wasn’t good after years of not playing. Go figure.
🙂
And that’s just it, our brains try to save us from embarrassment and solve issues with “guess I’ll just quit”.
Well brain, we ain’t doing that anymore. We about to try something new.
Stay tuned for when I play decent again and hopefully also can get better at singing.
And then I can learn and post a cover of my fav song right now.
I’m excited.
😌
Love, Loops
