Applause, Applause!! Good job Rick. I can tell you have put some work and a lot of practice in.
Just a couple of suggestions that you might want to try. First, try re-positioning the guitar directly in front of you rather than slightly off to the right. That will move the neck slightly back and make it easier for you to maintain a good left hand postion and add a little more bend in your left wrist.

Thank you for posting your video.

Rick,

Nice work and good job staying with the metronome, and getting back in time when IT got a little off! Keep working on your hand position, both. A little lower thumb and wrist bend on your left and a little more rotation on your right- meaning bend your wrist so your thumb is closer to your left hand and your fingers are tucked inside your thumb, rather than outside. I will try to touch on this Saturday.
