Sounds like you had fun! I've had the pleasure of playing for the family quite a few times myself, and if it wasn't for those opportunities, I probably wouldn't have lasted more than 6 months... But I did, and I haven't regret it :) Too bad my own (and my "audience's") expectations have grown much bigger. Simply strumming a few chords and faking songs this way doesn't cut it anymore... Still, playing for the family really makes it worth every second. I'm sure your family and friends will invite your guitar again next time :)
