A Little Blog Talk and a Song

I was reading a blog the other day and the owner spoke of her likes and dislikes on blogs. One of the main issues she addressed was music. She absolutely doesn't like music on blogs and many of the people who commented didn't either.

Hmmm....I do like music.

When I was painting my son's room a couple of weeks ago I listened to Tina's music from Cherry Hill Cottage and also Valerie's music from Glimpse of my World. Of course, I constantly go around humming "Stranger on the Shore" after visiting Kim at Dear Daisy Cottage. I can just hear that clarinet in my head!

We don't all listen to the same music but that's fun to me.

Anyway, my son had his very last vocal concert in high school tonight. Those kids are so amazing I can't even begin to describe it. One of the songs they sang was "Perhaps Love". I don't have a recording of the kids singing it but do you remember the John Denver/Placido Domingo version?

My mom and I loved it years ago and played it over and over!

I hope you like this song today. It's playing on my Playlist. Let me know your thoughts about blog music. You won't hurt my feelings.

Just Visiting

I'm a ducks in a row kind of girl. Are you?

I like things orderly, timely, etc.

In fact, when things aren't like that my mind is boggled!!

So this week I've spent time cleaning, planting, paying bills, following up on health insurance stuff, you know....keeping life in order.

I've also been doing a little decorating that you inspired. :)

I'll be posting that project on Thursday when I participate in the Show Off Your Bedroom party that Debra from Bungalow is having.

See the button over on the right?

Please join with us.

Have a wonderful springy weekend!!

Our Books - Ourselves

We are experiencing another snow and ice event here in Oklahoma. Our weather is always an adventure. The nice thing about icky weather is that you simply must embrace it. I can do that.

I've taken the time today to do a little dusting. Believe it or not, I dusted book shelves that haven't been touched with a dust rag in a long...long...time. Please tell me that you have places in your house that you rarely clean...now really, be honest.

I was thinking that our books are really a reflection of who we are.

Can you guess which shelf is mine and which is my husband's?

Can you tell what I'm into and what he's into?

Dreaming of Summer

Forgive me for recycling last summer's pictures.

I'm really missing the warmth and longer days.

Don't misunderstand...I'm grateful for today.

But I really want to work in my yard.

All Politics Aside

I want her arms!

Today as I was painting, moving the ladder, climbing, painting, etc....my arms were hurting. In fact, at one point I thought that it's no wonder people don't always realize they are having a heart attack! My arms were hurting.

I think Michelle Obama is gorgeous and her arms are one of her best features. Something tells me that when she waves her arms stop at the same time her hands do. Do you get what I'm saying. :)

Happy Day Everyone.
