Music is like a photo album -- I listen to a song and I am catapulted back to a time and place, hanging with friends discussing lyrics and the meaning of life. <br />So cool that you saw Joni in person. Donna Ursino and I saw Cat Stevens a few years ago and it was magical. While reading your blog I found myself noding in agreement regarding midterms, guns, music, travel and concerts! May 2023 find you happy, healthy and rocking to great music.

(If this blog allows, I'll try to post the link to the YouTube version of it.) At one point in the piece, I found myself thinking "this part sure sounds familiar." As it turns out, that small bit of the overture was the music for our Prendie rally song! As soon as I got home, I looked up the piece and found it on YouTube. Since I was a member of the Prendie orchestra, we played that piece so often that I was still able to tap out the drum parts while driving. Some things just never leave us. :) I even called my older sister, who was also a Prendie orchestra member, and she recognized the piece as soon as I played it for her. It's pretty recognizable.<br /><br />Here's the link to the YouTube piece. Prendie song part begins at 2:10 timestamp. Enjoy and sing it, ladies!<br /><br />https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3xL1nMVhztM<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3569113398980811876.post-27435589376063788212020-08-07T13:13:23.291-04:002020-08-07T13:13:23.291-04:00 Surely she spoke with bitter irony?

But gained two weeks to set up a virtual book club meeting with everyone on Houseparty tomorrow night. Since we can’t get library books at this time we’ll need to go to amazon or some other way of reading our next book. Do we go with Margaret Atwood dystopian, some pandemic reading or my husband has been bugging me to read “good and mad: the revolutionary power of women’s anger”, I’ll suggest but I may be the only one that can handle that. Probably should go with something light. Any suggestions?SheilaKD21https://www.blogger.com/profile/13386454737210674524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3569113398980811876.post-74071576882840781022020-04-13T21:48:09.620-04:002020-04-13T21:48:09.620-04:00Love love love.

Thank you for the recommendation! As always, I so enjoy reading your blog. Makes me think and reflect. The advice from my childhood that has stuck with me (and I can still hear my mother's voice) "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all". So true. And the advice that I pass along to my own children..."Live your life with no regrets".
