I took 2 shots, got no ducks, and cold, cold hands...
What is this blog about? Nothing. That was just a random lyric from an old John Denver album I used to own. Yes, I owned a John Denver album. I not only owned it, but I actually went out and purchased it. Why, oh why? The album was called Windsong. The blog title song was called Two Shots. I liked that song for some reason. I'm wired wierd like that. Lyrics just pop into my head. It was around 30 years ago that I last heard that song, yet the lyric was just as clear as if I had heard it yesterday. It happens alot with christian songs. When I was nervous about Liz having open heart surgery, a song came to me that I hadn't heard since I was a little girl. " I care not today what tomorrow may bring, though shadow, or sunshine, or rain. I know the Lord ruleth o're everything and all of my worry is vain. So, I'm living by faith, in Jesus above, trusting confiding in His great love. From all harm safe, in His sheltering arms. I'm living by faith, and I feel no alarm." That came as such a comfort to me, just when I needed it. I love music. Music is something that makes me happy and I like to do for fun! YAY! I know at least one thing I like to do for fun!

Hey, we share a common interest! Singing that is not hunting:(
Nothing wrong with John Denver, some of it is soothing. My mom has a tape of him she still plays that she taped off of a record she owned. :)
To this day I cannot get on an airplane or take a trip without thinking of the sisters (aunts) sitting on Grandma's kitchen floor making me cry (I don't know why) singing "All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go. I'm standing here outside your door. I hate to wake you up to say goodbye. But the taxi is waiting.."
Now you'll be humming Leaving on a Jet Plane all day. :) Ha ha.
I love music too, thanks to you. I'm so glad that we grew up learning to love all types of different music...what just came to me?
Baby I wanna trim ya
Baaby I wanna trim ya
Baby I wanna trim ya...beautiful christmas tree
Haha. I don't know why. I can't wait for Christmas.
Well, well, well....
See, we all have the gift of music, which I think is one of the best gifts of all! Whether you are leaving on a jet plane, trimmin' the Christmas Tree (yes, it's a real song, I can make you a copy), or moving your body like a cyclone, music brings it right to the heart! It's my drug of choice!
