A video conference and a test collaborative music session online where we recorded from 4 different locations live together and got a very decent result that sounded much like it would if we had all been playing in the same room.&nbsp; That\u2019s something that has really been an eye opener for me in many ways as I feel we have a long way to go before we can fully escape our current lock-down days. So a good start to the day. Unfortunately, my back had other plans so whilst it started well, I Had a lot of pain and ended up watching a lot of YouTube and i Player stuff.<\/p>\n<p>Today was a walk in the woods, well riverbank and very uplifting. I needed that I must admit. Fortunately, there is plenty of space to enjoy nearby. In the last 4 days I had got a bit despondent and not been out and was frankly sinking a bit. The news never gets any better either.&nbsp; My last proper studio recording was on Tuesday and since then I had been struggling a lot.&nbsp; A lot of background static in my mind has been playing out. The sort of stuff that its often difficult to discuss with anyone to be honest.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"165262\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/glass-cage.com\/dianas_blog\/2020\/07\/19\/notes-from-a-lazy-sunday-afternoon\/20200719_170110\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/glass-cage.com\/dianas_blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/20200719_170110-scaled.jpg?fit=1440%2C2560&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1440,2560\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;1.7&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;SM-G950F&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1595178069&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;4.2&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;40&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.0013698630136986&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"20200719_170110\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/glass-cage.com\/dianas_blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/20200719_170110-scaled.jpg?fit=576%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-165262\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/glass-cage.com\/dianas_blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/20200719_170110.jpg?resize=576%2C1024\" alt=\"\" width=\"576\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/glass-cage.com\/dianas_blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/20200719_170110-scaled.jpg?resize=576%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 576w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/glass-cage.com\/dianas_blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/20200719_170110-scaled.jpg?resize=169%2C300&amp;ssl=1 169w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/glass-cage.com\/dianas_blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/20200719_170110-scaled.jpg?resize=768%2C1365&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/glass-cage.com\/dianas_blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/20200719_170110-scaled.jpg?resize=864%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 864w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/glass-cage.com\/dianas_blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/20200719_170110-scaled.jpg?resize=1152%2C2048&amp;ssl=1 1152w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/glass-cage.com\/dianas_blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/20200719_170110-scaled.jpg?w=1440&amp;ssl=1 1440w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/glass-cage.com\/dianas_blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/20200719_170110-scaled.jpg?w=1208 1208w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yesterday was a strangely mixed day.
