Cooking and playing baldurs gate
๐ค
I cook already, I just googled Baldurs Gate, it's Dungeon & Dragons I believe! First released in 1998.
Any good?
We are playing the third version its way more recent and Yeah its really good the optionality is amazing
Optionally amazing ๐
I'm going to watch some more YouTube videos on it.
Thanks
Good books (especially fiction)
(Alternate: go spend an hour or two exploring a bookstore, bonus points for a section/genre youโve never read before).
Learn to play an instrument or pick up a new skill
Spend time outside - context doesnโt matter: walk for an hour (with no planned destination)โฆ do something active (hike, row, ski, swim, sports league, w/e)โฆ just sit somewhere for half an hour without looking at your phone and listen to every sound you hear. Do it daily
Go to a museum or botanical garden
Call a friend or family member, and set up a recurring date to connect with that person every month
Try your hand at art, or another creative endeavor
Pour a very large cup of coffee and open Wikipedia (or Wikistr). Search for an article on something that sparks your curiosity. Click a link somewhere in the article. Read the new article at that link. Click another. Refill and repeat
Hope these help to fill your day and expand your soul ๐ค
Thanks, all good suggestions.
I play the organ and live in the country so spend most of my time in nature.
We live next to a botanical garden at our holiday home on the Isle of Wight.
I just came back from Lisbon visiting a friend and have family coming to stay at the weekend.
I spend most of my time in front of a computer learning.
How am I doing so far?
I think I'm heading towards exercise, apart from walking, I don't do much. I tried biking, I know 2 people that own gyms and I don't like them, so In either upping my walking game or starting running I think.
Church organ or other?
Church, electronic, keyboards, piano, harpsichord.
I haven't played seriously since my early 20's, it was going to be my career until I saw the pay ๐
What do you mean?! I know organ players on ยฃ100 a month. Absolutely killing it!
I am slightly regretting my life choices since I discovered I could have got a job working on a cruise ship playing keyboards in the onboard band, only having to work most evenings.
Not a bad way for saving dosh, you donโt have any day to day living expenses, know a few people whoโve done itโฆ sounds like it has a shelf life though, could be good for a year or so before becoming tedious.
Yes, good for your 20's to early 30's.
I lived in Greece for a year when I was 18 DJing, working in a kitchen and fixing beach chairs, absolutely wonderful timeโฆ actually thinking about it, maybe I should go back!
Not sure my liver would appreciate thoโฆ
I worked in a piano and organ shop in south east London, playing them to demonstrate to customers.
That sealed my decision, my boss was in his 40's, a much better musician than me and a depressed alcoholic who felt he'd wasted his life.
For exercise ever considered walking Up Hills, a quick way to get trim. Rock climbing or bouldering, canoeing, yoga, tai chi...dig holes in the garden ( not the botanical one!) For oldies, Cross training or just lifting weights is supposed to stop us withering away. There are so many ways to keep fit, if the mind is so inclined, anything to avoid running which is not good for old knees.
Our holiday home, where I walk the most is very hilly, since being there, my stamina for hills has increased dramatically.
We also have a gym over the road that I helped get started, run by a friend, who constantly tries to get me to join.
I think walking is my go to exercise, I enjoy it and do it for pleasure, which is half the battle.
GM! I'm building a yacht out of playing cards,to see how long it can stay afloat! ๐คฃ https://www.yachttrading.com/
Don't have an accident ๐
Studio all day, yesterday was recording fugal horn and trumpet, I think today will be mostly editing and maybe some mixingโฆ did a couple of hours last night on my own stuff too.
Sun is shining, good people in my life, no need to talk about money as I donโt have any ๐
Hereโs a shot of George taken from the bathroom window. Have a great day Mike!
I miss our cats ๐
Have a great day too!
From what I have seen on YouTube you have a lot of lovely country roads to explore in England.
