Update.
I've been playing since Christmas. It's OK. As I expected, for a week or two I played for a long time everyday, now I have to force myself to play 3-4x a week. But I play because I would be angry with myself for buying something and not using it. I do this all the time.
So I try to practice. Usually, once I start time moves quickly and I practice for 45min although my goal is only 30min .
I'm using apps that teach notes and check if I press the right key. There are songs such as ode to joy, Aura Lee, yesterday I began practicing a very short and extremely simplified version of Swan Lake. I have a method book for adults, too.
I can play with my right and left hand, but only separately :-)
I can't say I'm especially motivated, but I will keep learning because I've read it's good for the brain. And I'm an extremely boring person so I should have some hobby that I can mention in small talk. I don't watch movies and don't have any funny stories to tell. So basic playing could make me a little less boring when I'm with others. Not that I actually meet many people anyways lol
