I did a thing and picked up a violin after 20 years.
1) Muscle Memory is real
2) It doesn’t sound good, but each day sounds better than the dat before
3) I genuinely like playing the violin even though I am frustrated it doesn’t sound good yet
4) I am in a 5/5 streak for practicing daily.
5) I started back with the Twinkle variations and am currently working on Minuet 2 in Suzuki book 1. I took lessons in high school, but I’d predict I’m basically at the level of someone who has taken lessons for 6 months to a year.
6) I pulled out the Christmas Kaleidoscope book and played a few duets with Quincy. That was super fun for me. Quincy painstakingly tolerated it. Maybe Corbin will learn the 2nd cello like and we can play some 3 part carols.
7) my teens used to be super impressed when I would do anything but in the last 2 months they have entered the eye roll “but it’s bringing me a lot of joy.
