Re: [slim] Prime Music on LMS
I too would like to see Amazon Music pluginDenon/Marantz are doing it so there must be some method. Amazon automatically allows me to stream my entire music collection (all CDs I've ever purchased from them), which is very convenient. dmcdayton's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10482 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=109965 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

A bit of truth in that, although I think it is more that courting couples are more inclined to ignore or tolerate the annoying parts of their partner's behaviour, and become less tolerant once the rose tinted veil of new love falls away. The quote I have in mind is from Richard Bach (author of Jonathan Livingston Seagull) If you love somebody, set them free. If they return, they were always yours. If they don't, they never were Although I am the one physically leaving, I am setting my wife free. A couple of good sources of help for faltering relationships: A book, "Mistakes Were Made (but Not by Me): Why We Justify Foolish Beliefs, Bad Decisions and Hurtful Acts ", Travis and Aronson. Actually I would say a "must read" for everybody! I cannot recommend it strongly enough, it has changed my behaviour and how I view the world. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/1780662653/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_U_H8hkDbQ33YAKP Also, any stuff by Alain de Botton, but particularly his lecture at the Sydney Opera House "On Love" - available on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v-iUHlVazKk Sorry, I really will shut up now!

Re: [slim] Finally Sold My Treasured Squeezebox Setup :(
Thanks for the kind thoughts guys. The reason I am so reluctant and sad is I actually really like my wife and honestly don't want us to break up. I saw the kids moving away as an opportunity to spend more time together and rekindle our relationship which has become colder and more distant; smothered in the organised chaos of managing three demanding teenagers. Not the kids fault, obviously, but we have just focused too much on their welfare at the expense of our relationship. However, she obviously has been having other ideas. Lesson for anyone who has acquired children recently, make an effort to drag your wife away from the kids as much as you can, so you can spend time together, no matter how reluctant she is too leave them. Deposit them with relatives or grandparents for a week and fly off somewhere. She may spend the first couple of days texting and phoning them, but it will be worth it. She asked for the separation 18 months ago, took off her wedding ring and moved into the spare bedroom, but I persuaded her to wait until the twins were 18 and had finished their High School exams and were back from various post-exam travels. The time since she asked has been very difficult. I have tried really hard to make her life as easy as possible, doing most of the laundry, shopping and cooking, so she can take up hobbies and "find herself". I still have some hope that she will miss me more than she thinks during the separation. Hoping for the best but planning for the worst. Despite the obvious signs, the children seem to have no idea what is up. My apartment becomes available in mid-August and we are planning to tell them then. That is one conversation I am REALLY not looking forward to! Also not looking forward to starting all over again - particularly at the age of 60, but trying to remain positive. Sorry I have taken the thread so far off topic! Back to Squeezeboxes...

Yep, there's a lot of it about. It shouldn't be a reflection on either of you. Remember the old saying: "Men marry women with the hope they will never change. Women marry men with the hope they will change. Invariably they are both disappointed." Good luck. chill's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10839 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=110742 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
