Going to get interesting next year?

 143rd day sober. I practiced last night and worked on octave stuff of course, but one thing I notice is, during the day I'll think of songs I should work on, but when practice time comes around and I'm tired from the day, I can't think of those things. And while I think I need to work on endurance and range, what's really going to help me as a busker is repertoire. So each day during the day I'm going to write on an index card, songs that come to mind. At practice time I can look at the card and I'll know the songs I want to work on. 

I'm also going to start each practice session with playing Taps or something like it. Because what might happen, with all the military people in Hawaii? I might be called on to play Taps a lot. A lot of people actually screw up playing it, because of nerves. So if I get used to playing it a lot, I should be able to rip it right out. 

As usual I started my day by reading some Reddit while having my coffee, and on r/collapse I read this:

I can't find any places where the poster is wrong, and while according to him the real problems are in late 2024, according to him The Troubles will start in 2022. That's only next year. 

It's really coming down to, How soon can I reasonably move back home?
