Yikes! Thanks for the heads up.

Didn’t know this was a thing 😂 My kid’s new activity is mixing up potions in the bathroom sink with water from the tap.

I can’t recommend Musicbee enough: https://www.getmusicbee.com/. It’s completely free, extremely customizable, updated consistently, has healthy ecosystem of plugins, and has a helpful community if you have questions about using any of its features.

Mediamonkey is also a good choice, but once I found Musicbee I transitioned and never looked back: https://www.mediamonkey.com/.

Edit: I forgot to add that both options support playlist and visualizers. Musicbee even has smart playlists that can update automatically based on custom rules you set up. (If you want that feature in Mediamonkey, then you have to pay for a license.)

I’ve been better. My 2 year old developed a fear of the dark a couple of months ago and now refuses to go to sleep alone. She used to be a great sleeper: fell asleep independently and slept through the night. Now, it’s a struggle to calm her down for bedtime and she’s guaranteed to wake up crying 2-4 times a night. At this point, I’m so exhausted and frustrated. Yet, I also realize she’s just 2 and just wants to feel safe and comforted.

My 2 year old has started talking about being afraid of the dark and monsters. No idea where she picked it up.
