Good to see you back here, my friend! I hope you're feeling better. Whistle therapy has gotten me through a few bad times over the last year and a half. It is SO good for stress relief, even when you're healthy. Oh ya.... I can relate to that! Just to zone out on it. It is better than a Calgon bubb...
