Sometimes just sitting and knitting is my best medicine. Have fun!

Yeah, you gotta dance, we have to laugh, we have to sing so as not to let everything else bring us down.

May (we) never take one single breath for granted...

And when (we) get the choice to sit it out or dance,

I hope (we) dance!Heart

Exercising twice a day every weekday and playing lots of music has kept me sane this last year, to the extent such a thing was possible.

Re: Nicely and Gently Going Insane.....

Good for everyone who plays great music, dances, laughs and has fun !!!!  Why not!  I listen to my rock and roll, blues, jazz, Sinatra, instrumentals, all kinds of music and sing to the songs I love!  My sister lives out of state and we have once a week marathon phone calls.  We have such belly laughs that we can hardly speak but boy does it feel good!!!!!!

 

Make your own fun and laugh a lot, it is healthy and good for everyone.
