    Perfect timing, thank you for this video! And...THANK YOU Jamie from work for telling me to watch this video.
    Honestly, I just can't believe the timing.
    Sorry for going on and on here - but I just have to share.
    So yesterday I'm at work, a bit exhausted. Well, to be 100% direct, I'm overwhelmed.
    I need time off and told my friend Jamie I'm going to.
    So she asks what I'm going to do?
    She suggested golfing and I almost spit the water I was drinking out of my mouth.
    Thankfully it didn't come to that ; )
    I told her I need to start something easy and fun and thought to play and sing more music.
    So she told me about this channel - and it's given me new ideas. I'm going to start practicing piano soon too.
    AND...if all goes well...I'm going to bring my friends together and who knows, maybe even start a weekend band.
    Thank you Jamie. Thank you for creating this video and thank you universe for Jamie finding out about it too.
    Alright, bye for now - and big hugs to my new music friends : )
