Laugh attack



I don't know how a person could NOT smile while watching grown men lose it in a press conference.

Cracked me up.


And some days ya just need a little pick-me-up.

Odds Are

HEALING

is my Word for the year.  My goal if you will.  My "New Year's Resolution".  And who blogs about THOSE halfway through February anyway? ME!

I am taking a different approach to goals this year.  There's a lot of leeway- which I need because I have a tendency to beat myself up over things not completely checked off my list.  So I'm not making a list.  Just going with a theme.

And February's Theme is MUSIC.

I love music.

I miss music.

I think my kids miss it too.

So in my quest for more music in my life, healing music, music that speaks to me, I found Barenaked Ladies again yesterday.  Ironic.  I love them.  Thoughtful.  Clever.  And always a good time for BNL.

I thought I'd share this one because it is SO great.

I'm dedicating this old school style (like when you'd call into the radio and dedicate a song to your bestie and giggle):
To my Sisters, my friends, my WoPAs and to my dear husband.  It's been a rough couple of days.  But I do believe in the odds.  Just depends on how you look at it.  (All stats are that way...)

Give it Back to You


Wishful thinking.

I do love live music.

I also love BNL.  And this song.

Let me know what you think.


Here are the Lyrics if you're interested:
"Give It Back To You"

[Chorus:]
I don't care how long it takes,
I will atone for my mistakes,
I will hold your heart when it breaks,
And give it back to you,
I'll give it back to you.

[Verse 1:]
Out of everyone,
I should have known how,
Knots can come undone,
I should grown but,
I was on the run,
And the walls were crumbling,
And I was tumbling.

[Verse 2:]
Should have just fell down,
Instead of making,
Such a hole in the ground,
There's no mistaking,
I will wear the crown,
I'm the lord and master,
Of this disaster.

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
Anyone can walk on water,
Just before they drown,
Anyone can talk but they got 
their story upside-down.

[Verse 3:]
Dust coats the floor,
With every move we,
Seem to find more.
I'm out to prove that,
What we're working for,
Is worth defending,
And all this mending.

[Chorus]

I'll give it back to you,
I'll give it back to you,
I'll give it back to you.
