Hi to you too!
All the turmoil in the world finally got me down a while back, plus I've been doing a lot of writing and making up songs with my guitar. I've been meaning to get back on LJ for a while now.

After a respite of ten years, I'm back to writing for the local newspaper.
How's everything with you?
Take care, and hope to read your journal real soon
Bob

Yeah, the world is a depressing place about now. I know it's gotten me down lately, so it's a good thing we have writing and songs. What kind of songs do you write? I like to sing, but I've never tried writing my own. Mostly because I don't read music, lol.

I can't read music. I learned how to place my fingers on the guitar for the cords.
I'll see about sending you a song or two I wrote in an MP3 file.
I only have one song I did that I converted over to MP3 that's a work in progress. I'll explain in the email.
Now remember, I cannot sing.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY <3

That's where the advantage is in singing - when you play guitar, you have to know what string to play, but a singer doesn't have to know what the sound they make is called at all, lol. I'd love to hear one of the songs you wrote. Maybe I could try to sing it...
