Let Us Say THIS About That or THAT About This

T. JAN and STEVE BARTLETT
OK..Let us say THAT about this, or THIS about that.
First, we will both say, we know we've all experienced  those 'Aha' moments sometimes...you know, when it all falls into place and understanding just comes...kinda outta the blue. AND, it was there all the time, but now it's understood and seen...where a moment before you may have felt you were in the 'TWILIGHT ZONE' or something really weird? AND when that happens, I cry., I don't like crying, and I always do just that when I don't understand [T. Jan].
We've both, Steve and T. Jan, experienced much confusion and pain in the past few weeks..and NOW we understand....yea. Thank Goodness.
So, there's been some changes here on  BARTLETT ON BASS, that you may or may not have noticed already. We're hoping by making these changes..there will be no further confusion about our posts.
This web site is called BARTLETT ON BASS....so, it's, of course, about BARTLETT ON BASS.
I [T. Jan] do the physical typing etc. on the site, but, Steve Bartlett, my husband, always reads the posts or I tell him about them and he knows what's going on. We are BEST friends and share EVERYTHING. He has asked me to post something about a subject...I [T. Jan] research it and do just that, and then we share our views about the subject. We agree on the ideas/ posts, let's say 90 % of the time, OK?...AND so, these are his views too.
Now, there are many reasons why Steve does not type, post, or Email his own stuff. EXCEPT on 'STEVE BARTLETT on FACEBOOK, go HERE all THOSE posts are his and in his exact words.  I won't go into why I post for him here or at other places, even though, he does checks everything,.... but they're VERY good reasons why Ido it for him. Let's just say he just doesn't. Yes, he's one of the kindest men alive, and loves me.  And, I [T.Jan] DO it for him, For one, I love him and, he's a great bassman. AND, we all need a little help sometimes, he helps me [T. Jan] every single day a lot, he's very busy..and,.I'm his BEST friend, so, I can finally help him. [T. Jan] right on.. yea... SMILE.
Now, this I [T. Jan stuff] all started a couple years ago with a band that Steve plays in...we were posting way too many posts for their taste. Steve tells them 'Jan does the computer stuff'.....which was correct...the PHYSICAL computer stuff....AND he does the PHYSICAL bass stuff. So,,we then put a FYI on our site saying "these ideas 'may or may not not' be Steve's or the bands, or musicians that he maybe playing with at the time." and we cut way down the posts about the band..hoping.that should make EVERYONE more at ease. But, the ideas WERE always his and the frequency of posts too.
But, instead of making everybody more at ease...it seemed to make folks start to think that BARTLETT ON BASS was just MY [T. Jan's]  site ALONE...WHAT? It was never that. Remember, this site is called BARTLETT ON BASS.
Now, Steve plays the bass, when..Steve plays it, 'cause I don't know how. But, he sure knows the bass, he would be my FIRST choice every time. Well, I'm [T. Jan] so lucky AND have worked very hard so that I can do computers....the Doctors said...'there's NO way', I could do what I'm doing right now...BUT, I'm doing it anyway. And, I'm happy to help our family [Steve and me] out this way., but, Steve knows what's going on and is involved always. This site is called his musical 'handle' BARTLETT ON BASS, and of course, he wants to know what's going on. It's I'm [T. Jan] not just a free groupie secretary either, BUT, I[T. Jan] have real talent online and, 'ahhhhh, I'll do anything for my STEVE, this BIG handsome bassman',....so know, on this site, we've always been a team and we 'may' always agree.
 We love putting online posts about our wonderful music friends too...but, we're coming to find out more and more, others may not like this or that that we post OR even want this or that posted, and we disagree about 'this or that'...WOW.... it's making things very difficult 'round here..just.trying to keep everybody we love, happy that is.
Now, Steve's a very private person and much quieter than I am, BUT, he has his views that are VERY important to him. Sometimes, he just has to express himself and does...and, folks are very surprised...'cause Steve smiles and always wants everyone happy, feel at ease, and be smiling too. He's very kind and thoughtful that way. I love him so.
So, people just assume that these 'views' must be T. Jan's, or something...NOPE, they're Steve's views and have been his views all along AND my views too.. Surprise!!! He's just quieter about it than I [T. Jan } am.
Hope this helps folks understand us a little better. T. Jan
What Steve said about this post...."Go ahead, post it...I'm tired of worrying about what others may think. I think it will help people understand"
