Okay, that was not to hard.  I found the notes.  These were sent to me from an awesome Harmonica/ Harp player.
I have posted them on the web at

So true G S E, I know a guy who plays 5 chords and in awesome.
I think I was eight when I started.  A friend would play a note, and then I would play same note, then it was 2 notes and 3, pretty soon before I knew what was happening he had taught me to play a simple boogie woogie key of A D and E.  then he would add other stuff.  I learned a few chords maybe 4, and then tried playing along whenever he was around.  Man I was a pest, but never quit.  The F chord may have took me several years to feel good about playing it.  I play some songs now with ease that really took me more then 5 years to learn.  (Man am I slow or what?)

I have aslo been playing now for 40+ years, and there are some who have played 1-2 years that blow me away.  whew...

It is not all about technical ability (for me)  There is style, class, grace, wisdom, it all needs to be wrapped up for a true preformer to catch ones attention.

Wow what a large discussion on the F chord. lol
First let me say I am quite impressed that you have been practicing that F chord for a year, and have still not mastered it. 

I am impressed because you are still trying.  Good for you!

That means that in time you will get it.  Try playing it like a d chord on the 5th fret, or some other voicing.

I also find it hard to believe someone has played for 40 years and does not play any songs with F in them (Too funny)

Remember that which does not break us makes us stronger

EMBRACE THE F MY FRIENDS.
