I have been considering good wireless earphones as well. As you said, good ones can be pricey but worth it if they bring you relaxation. Beatrice P.

Mary Lee - Ye...Thanks for your comments, everyone.<br /><br />Mary Lee - Yes, and the garden, or in our case the yard<br /><br />Ms. A - thanks<br /><br />Nance - Thanks. I didn't notice the yellow theme until I started the post. In fact I swapped out a photograph of a blue baby blanket I had made and put in the yellow one I also made. Sometimes I do wish I could embrace ignorance. It might make life happier.<br /><br />Jan - You are so right. We never know what's going to happen to any of us.<br /><br />Patti - Not even my children were free-range. But it was a great childhood indeed.<br /><br />Ginnie - Yes, we must learn. We have a lot of turkey vultures and I do love seeing them making their circles in the air.<br /><br />Bug - I bought the over-the-ear Studio Beats by Dr. Dre. They are really pricey. I could have found some not so expensive that would have worked just fine for me. But I happened to have my husband with me and he insisted I "deserve" these. I'd suggest that you go to Best Buy or other store with demos so you can try the on-th-ear and the over-the-ear types. There are some really good ones that are not as expensive as the Beats.<br /><br />The blanket is actually more attractive than the photograph. The recipient sent me photographs of the baby wrapped in it and it looked so cute. Very easy pattern.NCmountainwomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00615765649828716560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3906718086309436335.post-45035364076420384572016-03-25T11:42:07.940-04:002016-03-25T11:42:07.940-04:00I hate wearing headphones - I'd love to know w...I hate wearing headphones - I'd love to know what kind you got. Maybe I'd like them better. I recently bought a cute little speaker to carry around so I don't need headphones - but that only works if Mike isn't home :)<br /><br />That blanket is gorgeous!

I also take joy in painting and, believe it or not, I love my buzzards who have come back this year. There must be at least 30 of them and I love to watch them catch the breeze and take off in bunches in the morning. We MUST learn to live together in this world or we are doomed.

It made me smile which is always a great tension reliever. I too was fortunate enough to have been a free range child.

Like you...I love the Theme Of Yellow in this post.<br /><br />Like you, I am trying to find a way to escape so much Ugliness in the world at present. I don't want to embrace ignorance, but I feel so inundated with everything.
