Steady on course Mach1. It's just ... a lot. and as expected a delayed nerve and emotional response to the mediation session where the parenting plan and settlement were signed. The waves come and go today.
...and S12 had a minor medical procedure. W took him and he's fine and on minor pain meds for a few days.
...and I came home early to take D17 to work because W said she couldn't make it. I picked her up also because W said traffic.
Audiobooks, podcasts, physical books. Nope. Music...a day for no lyrics. No thinking. Just feel.
For focus on the drive it's a random "Pretty Lights" day. A fusion of 40's swing/ambient/electronic beats something. I often find the overlay of slowly changing harmonics/intruments on top of repettitive beats soothing and focusing. Perhaps I am on the spectrum somewhere. Not looking at the titles while listening, these are the playlist songs I favorited today...huh, those song and albmum titles...
Something's Wrong - Filling up the City Skies - Pretty Lights Looking for Love (But Not so Sure) - Glowing in the Darkest Night - Pretty Lights Total Facination - Making Up a Changing Mind - Pretty Lights World Of Illusion - Glowing in the Darkest Night - Pretty Lights Finally Moving - Taking up Your Precious Time - Pretty Lights One Day They'll Know (ODESZA Remix) - A Color Map of the Sun (Remixes) - Pretty Lights
Back home and it's time for chill.
Things Left Unsaid - Pink Floyd - The Endless River It's What We Do - Pink Floyd - The Endless River Transmitter - Daniel Lanois - Shine Desert Rose - Daniel Lanois - Belladonnna
OK, one with lyrics. Because I found Daniel Lanois from his duet with U2. And because the music video makes clear the first verse is about why we are here in this forum.
Falling at Your Feet - Million Dollar Hotel soundtrack - Daniel Lanois and U2
Every chip from every cup Every promise given up Every reason that's not enough Is falling, falling at your feet ... Everyone who needs a friend Every life that has no end Every knee not ready to bend Is falling, falling at your feet I’ve come crawling, now I’m falling at your feet… .... (All fall down) All the information (All fall down) All the big ideas (All fall down) All the radio waves (All fall down) Electronic seas (All fall down) How to navigate (All fall down) How to simply be (All fall down) To know when to wait (All fall down) This plain simplicity (All fall down) In whom shall I trust (All fall down) How might I be still (All fall down) Teach me to surrender (All fall down) Not my will, thy will...

D17, "Dad! Why are you watching that video? That is way too sad. Thanks for getting apricots. I'm going to go play with my bird."
