Welcome to Episode 175 of my podcast view from the crow's nest. It is Sunday the 13th of December 2020. The eagle eyed amongst you which is probably no one may have noticed I didn't do a podcast yesterday I just couldn't be bothered basically so long and short of it. I hadn't I literally had nothing to report so you know, I didn't really do any work yesterday I struggled the last few days I've struggled to get myself going. I was in a good rhythm last week up until I think Thursday or something like that. Maybe Wednesday and then it's been two or three days and I've just really struggled to to get my ass in gear and get working basically simple as today. I did eventually managed to get cracking on some music again back onto my album blind eye to love and I nearly finished again nearly finished another track I think that's the fifth and the vocals need completely redoing there's only a guide vocal on there and then they'll need backing vocals but aside from that, I think it's basically done so that's really positive. So I'm making progress through it. And I guess I don't know if I said this on previous podcasts or I was just thinking it but I'm feeling very much or had been feeling like I'm in a bit of a vacuum at the moment like I'm just not really achieving anything and it's a bit Groundhog Day effect. I think I do go into this couple days go so I'm going to again, but equally, I know that you know this is the slog. This is the mountainous false summits. You know I need to go through this. I need to keep pushing away. Keep plugging away, finish this album. And, you know, then I'll have the next project, whatever that may be, whether it's a writing project or what have you, but it just got to persevere basically. So it is so persevered a little today. And that's basically so I've got to report and yeah, short and sweet today I think. So. That is the view from the crow's nest. And tomorrow's a new week. I Oh, what I did what I did do. I think I said this, but on Saturday, yeah, yesterday, I moved the furniture. This was my plan for Saturday morning. I chose my plan Friday money bills postponed. I got rid of the furniture in the lounge that was just the big dining table and the chairs and Just all the stuff that was kind of basically being stored in the lounge and put it in the music room which is more of a storage room. And conversely, the drum kit and the piano out of the music room, put them in the lounge, and you can see this if it hasn't disappeared on my story on Instagram or Facebook. The transformation the room But it has made a huge difference. First of all, I'm there I'm standing in the lounge now, the you know, the room just looks so much bigger, there's more space, there's much less clutter, which I am a big fan of less clutter. So that's, that's really cool. And, you know, I believe in Fung Shui I believe in that you can go into a room and the way it's the furniture is set up the flow of the room impacts you, you know impacts your subconscious impacts your energy. And when you walk into a room that's more open and more flowing, and things are better arranged, etc. It's just better for you. So that's the first. The second thing is no one's touched that drum kit in the month and a half or two months has been set up and in the two days has been set up. The kids have been on and off it pretty much all day long. Or for a couple of days and the piano As well Mina is really tough with having a PMS, she started learning. I had a little drum and a little piano, bass yesterday and long the short of it is it's been a really successful move for these last two days and I suspect it will prove to be a very successful move. So really chuffed about that the rooms looking better. It's, you know, it draws creativity from you. You walk into it, and you see the junkets helped me see the piano and you just want to sit and play. And that's the whole point with having them to hand and it just shows that you know, having something convenie
