I got what I needed from Amazon LOL. It was not very exciting though, but was useful.&nbsp; The suns been out today and thats been pleasant and the trees are starting to wake up now though its a later spring than last year.&nbsp; I seem to be able to keep myself occupied and have a little more motivation in the last week.&nbsp; I hope this continues.&nbsp; I do feel out on limb though without much face to face contact with anyone I know. And also of course my go to people for advice have now sadly gone.&nbsp; Also I could do with a little less of the aches and pains which really does not&nbsp; help much either. Sometimes they are a real nuisance as at the time of writing this unfortunately.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Just sorted out my wheel bolts on the car as I seem to have lost one on the front RHD wheel. I am not sure when that happened but it could a have been a while back. I may have been driving like that for months. I did notice a slight vibration on turning and reversing on full lock which might well have been related.&nbsp; Due to events at the time&nbsp; my due diligence seemed to have gone AWOL.&nbsp; I seem to have got away with it fortunately as I have not been doing many miles due to lack of work and lockdown&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Yesterday I did another release to spotify and amazon and a few other streaming services.&nbsp; So I am just about keeping myself active. Some days are hard work with regard to motivation. Others are a bit of a pain but that&#8217;s life I guess.&nbsp; My exercise regime is having some results&nbsp; but its also exhausting and some of the back and posture ones are a bit painful at times after wards which can be a bit discouraging.&nbsp; They have as aside effect improved my mood and given me&nbsp; a little more energy to get on with things again.&nbsp; &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Covid-19 is still far from over, but you would think in many ways that the dangers passed.&nbsp; Hopefully for many it has of course,&nbsp; but it feels far too early to get complacent about risk.&nbsp; So far I have not actually been out to meet anyone for drink or similar. So I don&#8217;t feel that too much is changed yet. More importantly I can&#8217;t go forward with anything&nbsp; new yet.&nbsp; &nbsp;i am not to sure how healthy I really&nbsp; am either.<br \/>\nThat&#8217;s dented my confidence rather more than I expected.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player\/?url=https%3A\/\/api.soundcloud.com\/tracks\/741532642&amp;color=%23de7543&amp;auto_play=false&amp;hide_related=false&amp;show_comments=true&amp;show_user=true&amp;show_reposts=false&amp;show_teaser=true&amp;visual=true\" width=\"100%\" height=\"300\" frameborder=\"no\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<div style=\"font-size: 10px; color: #cccccc; line-break: anywhere; word-break: normal; overflow: hidden; white-space: nowrap; text-overflow: ellipsis; font-family: Interstate,Lucida Grande,Lucida Sans Unicode,Lucida Sans,Garuda,Verdana,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-weight: 100;\">\n<p class=\"mod-reset\"><a style=\"color: #cccccc; text-decoration: none;\" title=\"Diana Stones Glasscage\" href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/dianastone\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Diana Stones Glasscage<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00b7<\/p>\n<p class=\"mod-reset\"><a style=\"color: #cccccc; text-decoration: none;\" title=\"Just Like In Dreams\" href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/dianastone\/just-like-in-dreams\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Just Like In Dreams<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">&nbsp; &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The rolling stones song chorus says that but continues with &#8220;but sometime , you get what you need&#8221;.&nbsp; I hope you have all had what you need at least.
