"wife does her thing, I do my thing"
Absolute truth, but I did not see the situation coming. I've spent my life herding children and working my butt off. I'm down to two in the house plus us, and what rankles me is this in-law thing. It's like I have an 88 yo toddler. Nothing, against him, it's just not what I had on my radar for this time in my life. I need to go see my son and his family (USARMY) on their way to Germany in the next 2 weeks. But, wife is afraid to leave the area, because we might get a call from the geriatric mental facility that MIL is in. She's in full mother mode for her dad. I get it, but I'm in the just wow mode.

If you're listening to music right now, what song is playing? If you're not currently listening to music, what song would you like to be listening to right now?

When I'm working I like songs with no lyrics. Often soundtracks to movies or games. Right this second I'm listening to the Quest For Glory 5 soundtrack... "Dance of mystery and intrigue". I grew up on the Quest for Glory computer games. Remember when those crazy pixelated images looked so "life like" and cool.

I wish I was listening to the Grateful Dead May 26, 1973 Kezar Stadium.

I work from home, so things are pretty quiet.
But if I needed to drown out surrounding annoyances, I'd have a headset on and play white noise in a loop. I've used that before, and found it to be quite effective.
Seriously. If I need to focus, music is a distraction.

When programming, instrumental music. For that I'll pull up a YT live music channel, something from Lofi Girl, Epic Music VM, or Chill Music Lab channel.

Not only music, but any "louder" sound breaks mental focus or changes it. For me, absolute silence is the best, and every few hours a short break with some quietly played 
extreme metal such as Meshuggah, Rivers of Nihil, or Job for a Cowboy refreshes my mind somehow, it works
