and isn't that what retirement is for most people? The Time in a day that belongs to them and then only to spend how and when they choose,. not owned by an employer,not chained by "Golden Handcuffs" to a debt filled existance?
And without having to learn how to read the bass clef...or practice one Hanon excersize....... play without eyes....
My only "formal" keyboard instruction was by a piano player/teacher who taught me to play as if I was blind....Use my ears as eyes, I sometimes regret not having learned to read music well but have learned to play through hearing intervals rather than reading them....He told me "keys were not important just play and if you hit a bad note remember that the right note is always on either side of it!! LOl But there are no bad notes depending on what you do with the notes...
I'd say you did good for sure & did it your way.. keep it up & enjoy!!
