Waking from a good nap to a quiet surrounding refreshes the mind and helps in "critical" thinking and/or decision-making about "important" matters.

Good for you Kittay!! I'm so happy for you! You deserve it. I'm so jealous always wanted to work in another country!
What's stopping you? There aren't as many jobs out there as there used to be, but they're there if you look hard enough.
I can't get a visa. I have to have a skill that no one in the country has! May start looking at Holland, not sure what their rules visa are, I have to go back again to make sure.

^^ I am taking it. I have another job right now in the meantime. My Mom is being sued by a "beatle loving" maniac who wants all her real estate. My Mom has to have surgery on her pelvic bone. And I have to have Breast surgery. Plus Rocketman is has cancer. As soon as I get through all those things and live through it, I am leaving. I just have to get there and it is secured. Be glad to move away from these mean people.
Sending prayers and wishes to you. Mean people are the worst!

For her birthday, a 16 year old girl chose to see Paul McCartney in concert over getting a new car...Wow....I wonder how many 16 year olds would do that! ?

Every country says that, but it's not really true. Restaurants all over the world hire foreigners. No one in any of those countries can work in a restaurant? It's more about finding an employer who is authorized to hire people who need visas. Anything can be a special skill, depending on location. In some parts of the world, speaking English is a special skill. But I've heard that Holland is one of the more difficult countries. They've been an open door to immigrants for hundreds of years and now they're starting to fill up.

I downloaded more than 6,000 games from The Week In Chess onto my SCID On The Go app and I learned that there are many events that Chess.com doesn't cover. They are just focusing on 'big fishes' tournaments. This is unfair.

It's better to play chess app that doesn't have a move suggestion and has a true different levels. I don't like playing under time pressure so I installed Play Magnus. I forgot to turn off the auto-update. I fear that this app may develop into something I won't like. My only issues with this app are the training videos (they're too pricey) and the exagerated levels. Magnus (age 22) is strong enough. No need to go beyond the pinnacle of his career. I'll stop here. I'm beginning to sound like a raving lunatic.

Stress has caused this horrible migraine. I went into the dark, cool Catholic Church and prayed. My headache got much better. Hope it lasts.

What I was trying to say is that you won't understand Opening Book moves by playing a 5-minute game on Droidfish Chess app. That's why I re-installed Play Magnus. No time pressure. But it doesn't take too long to respond which is favorable to your phone's battery.

Droidfish and SCID On The Go are the ideal chess apps for me. This is for real. I uninstalled Play Magnus due to network errors. Too many gadgets are connected to our home network.
