A slight touch of the sad today

I am quite affected by the lack of sun, it makes a huge difference to my mood and I have one of those SAD lamps which is supposed to give the effect of being in full daylight. It seems to make a difference which is good. But the summer is the thing that really starts to sort it out though. We have had a false start with a few really bright and warm days but we seem to be back to the rain and gloom again now.  Its not just my mood but also the aches and pains that seem to come with the rain so it’s a bit of a double whammy really.

Musically things are rolling along quite nicely, with a few ideas bubbling under that will have the chance to escape into the world as and when permitting.
My lyric writing seems to have gone a bit of course recently though. I just can’t seem to string the words together the way I used to.  Maybe I have just run out of ideas?

Time seems to really fly by since leaving London too, which is rather odd. I can’t quite figure that one out! I seem to be busy but I can’t really work out  what with at the moment.  I realised that in some strange way I miss the chaos of the old cramped flat we had. Where I am now does not yet seem like home, even though its much better appointed and very comfortable.  We have been here 4 months but it still seems strange to me in many respects.

 

How are you all doing?

The sun’s out and summers almost here. Are you all chasing dreams, I hope so.  And I hope that you are  not alone.  Where there is life there’s hope.

The Most Reverend Michael Curry stole the show at the wedding of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry with a sermon clocking in at 14 minutes.  It was all about love.

Maybe where there is love there is  hope.

 

January 2018 update

I am still waiting to find out if I am moving or not. It’s getting very frustrating to say the least. If it goes wrong again it will be the third time in a row. I don’t have too much faith at  present.   My back trouble is easing a little now which is a great relief though. I can’t seem get focus on anything to do with music projects at the moment though I have  a few ideas floating in the back of my mind.  January is a bit gloomy enough though at the best of times.  This week sees me at the grand old age of 61 which is something that I could not ever have conceived of really.
