| I wonder if I'm the only one that had no idea what they were singing. 🤣 I couldn't understand a word! Age or health issues? Probably a combination of needing new speakers and being tired. I wore my brain out today.I kept having ideas, which are hopefully pretty good and getting distracted from focusing. I've discovered sometimes it's just easier to go back to a different project when I first lose interest in the current. So I've got five different things in various stages of progress waiting for my attention. It seemed weird at first, but if I keep working on something I don't have much interest in, I end up just mucking it up trying to be the best and brightest. Anyway, the video was visually interesting and it had a nice rhythm. |

but seems to be okay today. I worry about my poor circulation, scrub my toes with a soft bristle brush, watch discoloration come and go. I probably need new arteries or veins but hey... "Heathcare" USA (enough said?). I may be better off trying something here in Thailand. But still... wish I lived in a country that had adequate patient based healthcare. Thailand and Taiwan mostly do, but I can't access it. First world systems like Europe, Canada and Australia do, but again, I can't access it.
