thanks all, it is all helpful.  I am finding that there are alot of subs for chords i can't reach.  I do like my teacher but he is young and kinda unfocused.  But still good to have some one correct my form etc.  I also played flute as a teen and can read music still (sort of).  I found a site that is giving basic strumming patterns.  good for me a beginner.  It will be a loooooong time till i can get close to a Joni Mitchell pattern!  High hopes

I am really new (5 weeks) Is there a trick to reaching all the chords? (short stubby fingers and 50 year old woman).

Also is there a good book/tutorial out about strumming and picking? 

I have some serious calluses too, is that normal?

I am taking lessons but...so many questions....help!
