Spent the evening with my daughter and her in-laws and extended family.  I'm lucky that I get to spend time with them as well, they're an amazing and loving family into which I've been fortunate to have been grafted, through my daughter.  We spent the evening over food (what better way to spend the time!)Continue reading “365 Day Project-Day 130-Story Of My Life”

Heard this on the way down to visit grandbabies.  Four hours is a long time to just sit and think while I'm driving.  Lots to think about these days.    

NPR introduced me to Tori Amos’ new album, Unrepentant Geraldines, due out next week.  They also shared this song and I’m sharing it as well.  

Got an email from iTunes titled, “Great Indie Artists” with singles starting at 69¢.  Some were familiar, some not.  Clicked on one that wasn’t and it is tonight’s selection.  The Antlers have been around a while, but this is my first taste of them and… I like it.  I think it’s the horns.  May shareContinue reading “365 Day Project-Day 127-Palace”

Heard just a snippet of an interview with Sam Baker on NPR’s Fresh Air today.  Heard this song and thought it worth sharing.  Listened to some of his other songs and found them equally compelling, but just not yet ready to share.  Not sure what it was about this song, but it has a painfulContinue reading “365 Day Project-Day 126-Angels”

And now for something completely different.  Hey, I heard it. I liked it.  You’re welcome.  

Was planning to post this song right after services this morning.  We sang this song during a wonderful time of worship.  I’m so glad I didn’t though, because now, I get to share a beautiful time spent this evening with two precious sisters in the Lord.  A friend was visiting from out of state andContinue reading “365 Day Project-Day 124-Oh How I Need You”

Heard this on the radio today.  I’ve posted music from A Great Big World before.  I love their sound. Listening to the verses, I can substitute LA for New York and feel the same way.  Wanna be “home” with them.  

¡Hola!  Let’s play some football!  GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! That’s all I got…  Now that’s out of the way, here’s the “Official Anthem” for the upcoming 2014 FIFA World Cup.  It’s helping me start the weekend right.  How can you not get up on your feet to the sounds of Santana, Wyclef, Avicii and Alexandre Pires.  Oh yes,Continue reading “365 Day Project-Day 122-Dar um Jeito”

Coldplay just released their second single from their upcoming album, Ghost Stories.  Considering all that has gone on the last few days, this song is somewhat… perfect.  A side note… I don’t know if I ever shared my name’s meaning; at least the meaning as defined by JRR Tolkien.  I found my name in theContinue reading “365 Day Project-Day 121-A Sky Full of Stars”
