I'm made it past 2 days plenty of times though.

You are hilarious !!! According to that statement, I beat you already- but I don't believe you ! I'm still going- and only 3 out of the first 14 days I only practiced the minimum minutes. (and one time I was really, really drunk- and I sucked big time ! But I did the whole time I had to for the day.)
I swear- someday I will be playing as well as my imagination

Playing while drunk can be fun, interesting, relaxing, and I suppose if someone recorded it, embarrassing. LOL

LOL- to the best of my knowledge, none of the conditions for removal of alcohol from my life exists- I very rarely got out of control, but when I do, it's U G L Y !!

Thanks ! I was so close to settling for defeat today-- But, I DID IT !!! (but I did have to split the practice into two equal parts- I decided it was ok) The rest of the week should be good. (I was worried about the last two days, but I'm looking- got 11 days left. I really should be able to no problem !!
rockin on !!

Well I haven't posted since last year about this time. I'm still practicing and still taking lessons. I have been doing a lesson now for three weeks learning fingering tasks and bowing practice. My difficulty is getting my fingers to drop on the string in the right place. Minimize lifting of the fingers and going from string to string. Going from a G to a D with four fingers on the e string and back, or from F to a E with four fingers on the a string. This has been a long test of endurance and patience. I just want to really "get it".
I hope to drop back in more frequently.

Thanks, @damfino - I am excited to get back to normal, not worrying about time practice, but I learned a lot about my list of excuses, and I probably got a little better at playing in the process ! LOL

I am back, and I'm totally in on this challenge, just because it's a really good idea!
Work, Real Life, Issues and things kept me from practicing until one day I just broke the fiddle back out of its case and found out how badly I needed to practice.

Thanks- I really hate them and this is the first, and probably the only one I will ever do. It was worth it, though

Proud of you.
I wish I could succeed with the challenge as well. Maybe I'll give it a new go soon. I don't have a problem practicing, just finding time to do it every single day.
