Strange times, these. "I've been more than a bit distracted..." can you name that tune? Hint: I wrote it and it needs an update. Working on working it into the set.
My bandcamp cannot take payments at this time, because they switched up the payment system and I haven't been able to update it yet. If you have been trying to give me money, thanks for your patience.
As for the song's subject matter, I do my best to pay attention, but not too much attention to be led to despair. Been there, done that. Doesn't work for me. I am best served by creating joy.
And speaking of creating joy, I'm in the midst of several projects, and seeking at least a part time steady day gig, or sone more paid projects. I can offer communication services, write, make flyers, gift wrap, serve at an information booth, make signs, social media, tend bar at events (I don't drink alcohol, so no worries about be dipping into the profits.)
Oh, and I'm available for recording as well!
The thing is, I'm flexible, available and I take care of myself, so am pretty healthy (knock wood.) I currently only have a once a month afternoon gig on a Saturday. We do try to see the kids and grandkids at least once a week, and that is usually a Sunday. Call me or text me: 415-789-MARI
Something on my mind, that I thought worthy of a share:
This happened on October 23rd. Please call your elected representatives. Remind them that they work for US and you do not want to see our public lands being destroyed for short term profits. Then, if you can afford it, please donate to Earthjustice.
There's more, of course, but this seems urgent, and there is so much bad being thrown at us, I'm taking it one crisis at a time.
We are all we've got. Let's take care of each other. Spend time with people you love and admire, and be grateful for the time you got to spend with loved ones who are no longer here.
Be sure to create some joy for yourself. Sending love.
Ox,
Mari
