Took the day off getting this little one settled in …. 40 minute journey home where, miraculously, us singing old Mac Donald had a farm seemed to soothe him to sleep….
He knows where to eat, poop and sleep. What more does a kitty 🐱 need ❣️🥰❣️
So, the rain has stopped; now it’s only the trains, biplane, and squirrels 🐿 running across the roof of my recording space that I have to contend with 😂😭😂 I’ve got the old lady out today – my #Takamine EN30C, I’ve had it for more than half my life and it’s a gorgeous full bodied sound. I traded a Yamaha jumbo for her plus a wad of cash I borrowed. Loved her from the first time I played her.
My other guitar is a Martin…. yes I’m lucky like that. It was another ‘I have to have this guitar’ moment … Smaller, brighter and lively and yet still rich toned but not what I was after today for the two laid back songs I’ve been recording today.
Last night I tried to record some of my new material, but the rain was too heavy. Today again, rain stops play (or recording) so I’ve finally gotten round to redoing my website. It’s one of those jobs I’ve been putting off, partly because I knew I was going to be adding a Patron/Matron page and I find asking for stuff difficult.
With @amandapalmer and her #artofasking as my spirit guide I’ve gone and done it. So it up there in my menu if you fancy it have a look.❣️
If you want to know what I’ve been up to why not take a look at my Instagram account @louisehartmusicandart I’ll be updating stuff here too going forward!
I first heard this while watching Haven some years ago. One of those songs where you don’t press for the next episode but you wait instead for the credits to find out who wrote it. I love the space and emptiness of this beautiful song. It stops me in my tracks each time I hear it…. what songs do that for you?
I couldn’t feel less enthusiastic about 2021 if I tried. That’s not to say I’m not going to give it my all but I’m not buying into the whole it’s gonna be my year BS. It’s going to be another strange year where we’ll learn things we didn’t know we needed to, find comfort in unexpected places and be forced into situations we didn’t ever imagine, and my wish us that we’re all ok, that our loved ones are safe and happy, have food on the table and a roof over their heads. That’s all.
