~Music, Music, Music~

I was talking to a friend today about music.. being Christmas time all the songs you only hear once a year.. and we never seem to get tired of them. There are lots of new Christmas songs I've heard some really cute ones. we still go back to the old favorites..they just are the best... and I dont think will ever fade or that we will ever get tired of hearing Silent Night or Joy To the World..I love Over The River and Thru The Woods.. how many times I have sung those songs... and still do... I find no matter what mood Im in or what time or season of the year there are songs that can make you cry and some..well you just have to tap your feet to.. I still tap my invisible ones.. I can listen to a good rock and roll oldie..and I can get this chair to rockin now, let me tell you..I LOVE good music.. this chair will move back and forth and I just have a good time here listening to all these songs. I know so many good places to go and find them.. I prefer wavs.. as then I can put them into my email and send to any one.. I like to put music into all the letters I send... I enjoy that.. why I enjoy the Incredimail email program. I can put music into all my letters and I DO LOVE to get MAIL lol.. *HINT HINT* I will answer if you write to me you know.EVERY one I get I answer as soon as I can, I like to write but I bet you didn't know that did you? :-) Its amazing how some songs I play I find my boys even like.. I have some with some bird sounds..and they will look at my speakers..and just tip their heads lookin at them ...I know Dutch is thinkin "hmm birds in there?" Hes so funny he jumps up on the window and tries to catch them when he sees them outside I put bread out for them and both LB & Dutch love to watch the birds. I used to love to dance.. I would go every week end that i could .. to hear the bands or even just the juke box.. and just dance my feet off lol..was fun.. If I couldnt find anyone to dance with me I just sat and danced in my chair..well I guess I am doing the same thing now. I dance in my chair. I remember when I lived in Pasadena..TX..the home of Mickey Gilleys.. I have been in there many many times. I saw Willie Nelson sing there, was THAT a treat.. That man can sing.. his Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain? well that song can make you . does me.. tingle ...:-) he can sing to me ANY time he wants to.. Or Randy Travis..He HAS a voice now.. what a guy, I just saw a concert of his that was on one of my 120 channels..Lord, this cable is such a blessing too...see? they are just EVERYWHERE. :-).. When I was little I remember all we had then was a radio..and till the day my mom died..she had a radio in every room of her house.. Even in the bath room when you walked in there, turned on the light the radio came on and would play the whole time you were in there.. However, was ONE rule.. DO NOT change the station ! I can still hear my mother singing those old hymns, In The Garden, or her favorite It Is No Secret, What God Can Do. Precious Memories, how many times she told me thats what they did when they were young how music was a good part of their lives, when a wonderful evening consisted of the whole family together listening to the radio. I think it is for everyone.. and it can lift you up when you are so down... . even when it can make you cry..it can still be a good thing..after the tears stop. you do feel better. .. Speaking of tears I think my tummy is cryin...Lunch was cancelled today as we have OVER a foot of snow..and more on the way.. Poor Jane called said "Lois..I think I am snowed in.. I will try and let you know". I told her not to worry about it and enjoy a snow day.. I got up--no- I was WOKE up at 4:30 this morning to the sound of snow plows..sounded like they were out in the hallway.!. But the snow came down so hard last nite, we got 2 inches a minute it said or something like that no, i think an hour - a minute? No, lol wow we WOULD be buried lol All I know Is we got alot .. I bet Donnie is having fun.. He has a plow on his truck and loves to plow..so I bet hes doing some driveways of his neighbors, I KNOW they are glad he moved in by them...He just got a lovely new home on a lake I am so pleased for them.. but I admit I am a bit jealous.. on a lake..how wonderful..Hes worked hard to get it and I'm so proud of him..he deserves it. Donnie is one of my dearest blessings. I've enjoyed him being an adopted son for almost 23 years now, wonderful man. I watched a concert last nite a symphony..saw a 3 year old little boy..play the violin named Akim..what a wonderful child he is.. He made so many people smile last nite what an amazing boy.. The conductor of the symphony and evrery one had tears in their eyes watching this little man play so beautifully what a treat that was .. and I just happened accross it on our PBS station.. See? Music....and only 3.. and on that note. I think I hear my kitchen singing Come & Dine... :-) Y'all have a good one now y'hear..listen to the music..its so good for you.. yes AK, Momar, Raife? I know you all love music... :-) Luv ya,, & thanks.! Always, Lois *** . . May God Bless you today, I'm so honored to call you friend, I pray the Lord will keep you safe, Until I write again...
