The Music of My Life

Yesterday we moved all the furniture out of the living room and Murphy's Oil Soaped the floors.  And then moved everything out of the dining room and did the same.  It is an amazing difference.  We also cleaned the walls, dusted and vacuumed the furniture.  Just those few things made my house (and me) feel better. 

I have an amazing list that I would like to complete this week.  Do I think it will all get done?  I can try--if not, then it will all have to wait until summer. 

Today's list:
--eat pancakes, drink coffee, and read newspapers. 
--bank.
--pay bills.
--sew.
--laundry!!!!
--finish cleaning dining room. 
--clean upstairs bathroom.
--dinner?  You can bet they will want some.....how about roast with potatoes and carrots in the crock pot?
--book club at 7 PM.
--pick up recycling bags.
--call Grandma Cindy.
--call Granny.
--fill out paperwork for church that 'allows' me to work with youth.  This is a real soapbox issue for me.....enough said.
--NAP.


Will all of this stuff get done?  Check back tomorrow to see what carries over!

Meanwhile, I believe that my ipod will be playing this while I work:




That's a lie.  I won't be listening to that while I work.  More than likely it will be this......



That's probably a lie, also.  I will probably be listening to teenagers whine.  Maybe if I turn up the volume on my ipod.....just sayin'. 

The Music of My Life

The number one song on February 9, 1967, according to Billboard was......

 

It simply doesn't get much better than The Monkees.  Just sayin'.  

The Music of My Life

Today is February 1.  That means it's 9 days until my birthday.  I love my birthday.  And my mom loves the day, too.  She always made my birthday the greatest day.  She made my favorite meal and we had cake and ice cream in the evening with our grandparents. 

Can you tell that the next 9 days will all about me?

Here you go, Mom.  Thanks for everything--you're the greatest.....

The Music of My Life

1983.  Totally dude.  I love the 80's. 


I'll stop the world and melt for you.  What's that supposed to mean anyway?

All I know is that when I heard this song on the radio Friday night I was instantly transported to the movies on a Friday night in 1983.  Valley Girl.  I actually paid money to see this movie.  There was a midnight showing and we got off work (try to be surprised--at the grocery store) and headed to the movies.






My kids are gonna love this one.  Just sayin'.
