Goldberg Tiger and Tiger2 are good low wing trainers. Could probably do well with that Saito too. Convert it to a tail dragger and go again.

The simulators are good tools though and not to be neglected. It will get your brain and thumbs connected again and in such a way that you are not 'thinking' about it. You can also learn some things about set up and get an idea what kinds of planes you really like after having tried a bunch of them out...
