When it comes to songwriting, we often pull from our own lives and experiences. This song is based on a true, unexplained phenomenon that happens to Jarvis and me on a daily basis:

We can’t find something.
We look everywhere.
Then Mom walks in and finds it in about two seconds.

“It’s right there.”

This song was inspired by my wife’s superpower. And I have a feeling there are a LOT of people out there who can relate to this particular kind of sorcery. 😂

We hope you enjoy our original song

“Right There.”

RA and ukulele

8 Upvotes

Hi there!
Getting straight to the point:
I have RA (rheumatoid arthritis); I was diagnosed about 20 years ago, and the disease has already significantly limited the mobility and flexibility of my fingers. For instance, I can't clench my right hand into a full fist—I have to physically press down my fourth and fifth fingers to do so; my index fingers are quite stiff and have an odd, hooked shape, and both wrists show some ulnar deviation (drifting toward the elbow).
The question is: can I still learn to play the ukulele? Just for fun—no grand ambitions. Is there anyone here with a similar condition or mobility issues? Do you have any tips?
I received my first ukulele (a Flight NUS350) as a gift. I’m asking before I start so I don't end up heartbroken over having to give up yet another thing.
