In an interview he said he suffers from anxiety and depression and isolation and always is accompanied by his adorable old dog, I used to love going to movies. One of my favorites was Good Will Hunting. Now they are so expensive and I stopped checking them out. Last time I tried to see a comedy with a friend,I had to take a cab cause I can't walk much because of a stroke and wound up collapsing. Two lovely men helped me to get into a cab. My friend had seen me and got in the cab and I went home. I used to be so athletic.. When I was little I tried the piano and violin. My piano teacher said I was gifted but my mother had bought a used piano that was never in tune and I couldn't take it.
My older sister, now dead, made a fuss of me practicing on the violin and kept on wanting me to play outdoors so that stopped. I still love the old musicals!
I love Cat Stevens and Gordon Lightfoot and Tom Petty and there are others.
every day for hours I listen to Josh Groban now/ I use a desktop and have a cheap smartphone. The stroke affected my hand coordination so I am hopeless on the smart phone. I also used to be an assembly programmer.
Love and kisses

Hey Bobby! just jumping in on this as well.
We had an awful piano growing up too, Out of tune and or also missing some keys (or they were dead anyway). Sooo frustrating!! lol Dad still plays it though.
Interesting about Josh possibly having bipolar. I suspect that of one or more of the artists I follow. One actually does have it. You likely not be familiar with him, but he's also written a couple of memoirs. In a way, he turned his life around similarly to Cat Stevens. "With Eyes Wide Shut" (i think is the title) is the one I read about that life change. He wrote another book before that, but I forget the content (didn't read it). The artist/author is Brian "Head" Welsch (he's a guitarist in the Nu-metal band, Korn hehe) He's such an adorable person, very lively. (I had to watch an interview after I enjoyed his story so much. forget what the interview was about though, but he was bouncing around in his seat like Tigger from Winne the Pooh. haha) Oh, maybe I was curious because he was coming to town for a book signing. I didn't go though.
