Sing to me.......

I am a sucker for Music.
Ever since I was little.
I have many video's of me singing and dancing in my room.
{I swear if any of those get out there will be serious consequences}
.
.
I love to get online and search for the Unknown.
Artists that are not well known but have some serious RAW talent.
Acoustic is ultimately my favorite, next to the Piano.
Which I can't play either....{sorry mom for the money spent on piano lessons}
And the guitar.....Well, I'm working on that. :)
.
In My searching this A.m., I came across Matt Nathanson Blog
{love him}
And he had posted some of his favorite songs.
Along with this Video.
I was so memorized through the WHOLE thing.......
I almost felt Hypnotized watching how intense their chemistry is.
You may have to watch it TWICE.
Fo Reals.
{oooohhhhh, and don't forget to look at her shoes when she plays the piano, Id like a pair please!
}
Some Of my Favorites right now......
Glen Hansard....he is seriously amazing.
{A little too scruffy for my taste tho}
You feel how sincere his music is in your gut when he sings.
"Falling slowly"
"Leave"
"Lies"
"Say it now"
You must Listen. :)
.
.
Shinedown
"Call me"
{love}
.
.
.
Alter Bridge
"Watch over you"
.
.
.
And Of course.....Anything by Ingid Michaelson.
Good Ol Ingrid and I are friends. She just doesn't know it yet.
But I think she'd like me.

.
We have had a BUSY few days.......
Today is mellow, and Im thankful to still be in my jammies.
and When noon comes....I will STILL be in my jammies.
You betcha.....
Listening to Air supply and folding laundry. ;)
Charlee eating her sandwhich on the go......
Charlee wearing stools as hats.
You know,.... Normal everyday stuff.
Autumn and her friend practicing cheers getting ready for tryouts.
.
.
.

Bring on spring.... Bring on the Rain! :)

today.

Today I shared my day with everyone.
You know those days where you can't breath for one MINUTE.
so busy.
Unexpected things come your way , where somehow you continue to fit them in your already insanely day.....
I do have to share my necklace My mom gave me for My birthday.
I LOVE IT!
Its strings of cotton t-shirt material woven together. ;)
Walking out to start our extreemly busy day.
Glad to be home.
In from the rain.
Lots
&
Lots of rain!

^%$#@*&(

This blog post was suppose to turn out different then what I'm about to post.
Today was calm and quiet...
Well, ........IT started out that way...........
I had a LONG hot bath. {my favorite}
Cracked the window so I could feel the cold air and hear the rain.
While I played "words with friends" on my phone with my sisters.
.
.
.
THAT'S what I was going to post.........
how relaxing and content and quiet today was. :)
.
.
.
But then,
THAT'S not always realistic in my life......
not for long anyways.
.
.
Charlee likes when Im busy or when Im away...
cuz she likes to do things like THIS!!!!!
Guess where she put the laptop keys?
In the garbage.
Seriously. WHY? Why does she have to ruin things.....color on things.
CUT things,draw on things, Rip and tear things
and then Skip out the room singing and smileing.
I swear she has horns!
So here is where she sat
for a LONG time.
.
.
AND, not to mention....
I keep finding these all over..
She keeps picking them off all our cupboards.....*sigh*
So after she apologized....
She cried herself to sleep in my arms.
I loved listening to her sweet whimper as she softly fell asleep!
I held this little angel/devil in my arms....
and thought how could I ever live without her?
I layed her down and wrapped her up so she could sleep.
Life just isn't the same when she is sleeping.
Im still debating if I should sell her..... ;)
I wonder how much I could get?
.
.
.
We did find ALL the keys to the computer and got them all back on.
.
.
.
until next time..........
Cuz there is ALWAYS a next time......

Italy!

We just got a quick picture from My dad and My sister in Italy!
Doesn't my dad look so handsome in a TUX?
:)
I got teary when I saw this.
I miss them ,Im not to comfortable with them so far away.
They are there for 10 days with a group of singers to preform!
How lucky!
Wish I was there..........I bet they have cute rainboots!

What will Tomorrow bring.......eh?
In the Mean Time......I will go grab a Sonic. ;)
.
.
.
.
Friday Confessional TIME!!!
HERE IS GOES...
.
.
I don't like rules.
I PUSH myself to follow them.
I love Music.
Ingrid Michaelson, Glen Hansard, a fine frenzy, Mat kearney to name a few.
I hate when People are mad at me.
When My world is in a whirlwind, I always know those who love me the most.
Cuz they Show me.
I like wearing weird things.
That don't match.
Im not perfect.
never will be.
I hate when People Judge.
Fabric, glue sticks, owls, sonic, new clothes, shoes, friends, ,mike,
clean sheets, lipgloss, A freshly showered man,
Sunshine, vs PINK, Lace, ruffles, Old things make me happy!
.
.
Good luck to my sister and daddy today. They are flying to Italy. YUP Italy!
Im not gunna lie...I have anxiety over this.
Can't wait to hear they made it safe.
