Hey Tig, I hear ya re the 'getting comfortable with being uncomfortable' - just recognizing myself that it goes with the territory of getting on in time... curiously, I also hit a wall with playing in the last 6 months. After having made pretty good progress with lots of study and practice, I got tired of playing by myself (partly covid isolation) - just not enough satisfaction in that after a certain point. I used to make music with my students every day, but since retiring, it's just been me, myself and I. I haven't given up completely tho. Anyway, hope that you can keep things at a slow glide and stay well.
Jipes, always good to hear from you, too - hope that all is well in your part of the world!
