I'm listening to An Irish Christmas as we type...lovely violin and whistle playing The First Noel.

I'm listening to The Boston Camerata CD, "A Renaissance Christmas". It includes some lovely French and Spanish carols, and they are accompanied by recorders, some early violins, hand held drums, and some mellow brass. Some of it is like dance music.

I also have some CD's that are Christmas carols done by a string quartet. The music would accompany a dinner party quite nicely.

Oh how pretty!! I just love lights at Christmas! Those lights on the deck down by the water must look lovely from out on the water.

I've taken to leaving many of my indoor lights up well into March. The sunlight gets so dim, and it's so dreary, we need something to provide some sparkle!

My kids are continually amazed that I can think up a song for almost any situation. Something will happen and I just break into an oldie. It's hilarious, and they've come to just accept it, now.

I first got into music with the Beatles in 1963, when I was 10. My brother had a great album collection, and when he'd come home from the AF Academy for summer break or whenever, and we'd have his records, I'd listen to them continually. Probably ruined half of them from mis-use, but I don't remember him yelling at me. He had some Simon and Garfunkel, but also Janis Joplin, and some hard core blues. I guess that's why I enjoy all kinds of music nowadays, except rap, which is crap! ;o) Singing along with the Beatles and Simon and Garfunkel taught me harmony, so that led me to be an alto when I joined the school chorus, or did Midnight Mass at Christmas.

Now THAT'S a super funkle! Night everyone, I watched Spiderman 2 with the kids earlier, so I'm just now catching up and winding down.

Good morning!

There's new snow on the road, and Rosie's way behind...

Well, I was a little late. Not bad. Five minutes.

Final exam week here! Should be vey quiet, so long as there are no more power outages or other such troubles...

Jen, just fer you:
Strings of street lights,
Even stop lights
Blink a bright red and green
As the shoppers rush home with their treasures...

I'm so sorry to hear about your wife! I know that has to be really disappointing to her...

But it sounds like some good things were going on during this show...I know these kinds of things can really pull a group together. I've been in a couple. (I once played the possessed fortune-teller that Jesus healed...betcha can't believe that...)
