We have two gorges out of this valley, and two passes. We are slap-bang in the middle of this big island. I have to go up one gorge to my meeting- which seems to be going well. ...
First weeks- I was playing heavy prison blues in my truck. But just lately i notice a change. Many people won't have heard of Stephen Foster. he goes a long way back. On the way up the gorge is a creek- the Gentle Annie. it was most likely named after one of Stephen Fosters song- in the gold mining era...
I am a local historian, amongst a number of other things... ... and am interested in how people dealt wit their driving before 1935.
There were temperance leagues and stuff like that- mostly associated with protestant churches.
For me i had hearing restored in recent times- and can hear lyrics and conversations. Glue ear is a condition of poetry, mostly and I suffered from it badly. easily fixed- or so I found out.
But it also save my hearing from all that rock n roll in the 60's 70's and 80's.
So I have become a "born again" muso. Catching up on lots and lots of things. ...
One song is about this typical wife who stand behind the door with a frying pan when hubby comes home late, from the lodge.

David that was a cute post about how you changed from one music to another. This isnt really parallel but sort of similar in that I taped and bedded my restrooms and I looked at the walls the old ugly sponge paining with the darker colors and I just completely changed it with pastel yellow as the main color with a pastel pink and pastel blue to accent it and they came out so cute and so cheery looking. Im really happy with the job I did in my restrooms. So I am changing, I am healing, because my Color choices are pastels and happy and cheerful colors. Thanks for the post I had fun reading it
I think that music is a universal comforter, saving grace, inspiration, and soother. And yes we can change our preference/direction any time we darn well please. I think program has reinforced for me, that Im allowed to do and be ME. I dont need others to approve or agree. Grateful member.

Lyne. I could not have said this better. I am OK now, thanks to program, just to be ME. No one else. And as long as I am not harming another, I dont need others to approve or ratify what I am doing. I am free to be myself

People who are supportive and kind. The unsupportive ones show up regularly like a bad penny
Never before have I in one sense needed people to steer me in the right direction
