Thanks Julian. I may have stepped out of the high earning bracket, but I am certain that my life is becoming richer every day.
Computer jargon/data call it whatever also means stress in my life. I have seen it said on this list before that a stressful job is not good for your singing and I heartily agree. I try to get 30 minutes or an hour of ear training in each day. If I am stressed by lots of computer problems, then my ears can not relax enough to hear the subtleties of tones and it all becomes one big cloud of tones, tones and more tones, and my mind saying "I haven't got time for this, there is so much more to worry about"
So as I put my house up for sale, ready to move somewhere more affordable I **happily** sing "I once had a mansion and lived in my glory, but now I'm down to my last dime........ oh, I've lived a lot in my time" - Jim Reeves.
