I set up the wandering office in the bedroom this morning so I could listen to the rain as I worked.
It used to be that there was always a TV on in the house somewhere, droning away. The "clank, clank" opening sounds of "Law and Order" were like the chiming of a grandfather clock. I've cut the cord with Comcast and the house is very quiet now. Too quiet sometimes.
I'm shopping for a used, old school stereo system - the kind with speakers that could double as end tables. And a turntable!
We have a lot of vinyl going to waste. As long as I still have 50% of my hearing, I'm not letting that go to waste either. Screw the neighbors.
Storyteller keeps me on task as I work.

Loved this visit.
TV gone...well I've been listening to a lot of music and of course the radio and A friend (media producer) sent world radio today and I traveled to Germany, Scotland, Ireland, Wales and ended up listening to old time fiddles from a tiny Island of the UK coast...You're on face book so I'll share it over there, if I haven't already.
PS
when/if you find the turntable and big speakers--don't use the speakers to hold drings or food---accidents are awful for speakers !
i was just thinking the other day about
record players
how they are totally from another time now...how amazing that is.
who could have imagined
