Today’s Favorite Song is…

“Mercy” by Duffy. 
I absolutely adore this song. I love her voice and it makes me want to dance. 
Enjoy. It’s a “hot” video for a hot day.

If my technical abilities have failed me yet again, you can find it here.
I just love her red heels in the video. I want need [...]

July 6, 1991

Yesterday was my 17th wedding anniversary.  Wow…  Where did the time go? 
This is my favorite photo from the day when I married Mr. Right.

We look happy don’t we?  Can you believe that we had just had a little spat before the photographer stuck her head in the window?  Ahhhh, wedded bliss.

“I like to ride my bicycle…

…I like to ride my bike.” 
Thanks Queen for getting that stuck in my jukebox of a brain.  Does anyone have a quarter (or is it a $1 now?) so I can choose a new song?

To quote some of the fabulously written lyrics:
 ”Give ‘em the old razzle dazzle
Razzle Dazzle ‘em
Give ‘em an act with lots of [...]

Fuzzy and Blue

“Don’t you wish you were fuzzy and blue?”
This is another one of my Sesame Street favorites.  (And one of my son’s favorites too.)  Talk about stating (or singing for that matter) the obvious.
To quote Grover:  “Hit it boys!” (I just love the enunciation.)
Follow this link to get to Grover. The next [...]

Pop goes the weasel…

Get your minds outta the gutter people.  Honestly!  It’s about the song and I have another question for you.
Did the monkey chase the weasel around the cobbler’s bench or the mulberry bush? 
You know:
All around the cobbler’s bench (or mulberry bush) the monkey chased the weasel,
The monkey thought ’twas all in fun,
Pop goes the weasel!
