Riding the Barrel!

I have told you all about working at the farm, well yesterday I took T (my 5 year old...he just got out for summer break) out there with me. We had a blast. I bought a memory card for my camera and took it with me...This is one of the videos I took. S and N finally talked T into riding on the bull training barrel, he had a blast. The guy with the cowboy hat (N) runs the farm/ranch and the other guy is my brother-in-law... S. They also talked me into getting up there, but I wasn't about to let anyone video that. LOL!

While I'm not a huge fan of country music, this is one of my favorite country songs and I thought it fitting as he was really afraid to get up there, but did it anyway. I know it's not the best shooting, but I would say not too terrible for a first try. I'm also still figuring out all the ins and outs of editing video...anyway I thought I would see what you all think of it anyway.

My Favorite Song...Of the Moment!

I have so many "OMG that's my favorite song!" songs...really! Music moves me as nothing (Not even mind numbing sex) can. I don't know why, but it and it alone can sooth me as no other thing on this earth. My art included and I absolutely love doing that. It still doesn't touch what the right song can do for me, so I think I'm going to start posting them on this blog more often. I believe that if you take the time to listen to the words of a song someone else is listening to, you can get a good idea of what point they are in their lives. I choose songs that best suite what I am going through...mentally...it reminds me that I am not the only who feels this way...that I am normal (to a point). Call it reaffirmation if you will. Whatever. The point is...I love music and would like to make it a part of this blog.

That said: Here is my favorite song of the moment...



Here is the acoustic version...

Whatever It Takes...

I love this song...could listen to it over and over again...

Happy New Year!

Should auld acquaintance be forgot, And never brought to mind? Should auld acquaintance be forgot, And auld lang syne?
Chorus: For auld lang syne, my dear, For auld lang syne. We'll take a cup o' kindness yet, For auld lang syne.
And surely ye'll be your pint-stowp! And surely I'll be mine! And we'll take a cup o' kindness yet, for auld lang syne.
We twa hae run about the braes And pou'd the gowans fine. We've wandered mony a weary foot, Sin' auld lang syne.
We twa hae sported i' the burn, From morning sun till dine, But seas between us braid hae roared Sin' auld lang syne.
And ther's a hand, my trusty friend, And gie's a hand o' thine; We'll tak' a right good willie-waught,, For auld lang syne.

I finally did what I have sworn to do for 3 years now, find and read the lyrics to this song because I've never heard anyone actually singing the words, only mumbles past the well known part...(Should auld acquaintance be forgot, And never brought to mind? Should auld acquaintance be forgot, And auld lang syne?)...you get the picture. Not that seeing the words help to understand it anymore than I did before...there you have it anyway. Auld Lang Syne

A Little of This and That...

Here are a few songs that caught my fancy lately...my taste is very eclectic so here you go.
Plain White T's - Hey There Delilah


Maroon 5 - Makes Me Wonder


Imogen Heap - Headlock


Breaking Benjamin- Breath

This One Tears Me Up...

I absolutely love this song, it makes me want to get up and move and if I could get hubby to dance like this...well, I swear I would have to chew his pants off right in the middle of the dance floor. If you can't tell, I love to dance and this song is definitely one I can get my groove on with.





I will have more to post, hopefully later today!

Tid bits...

I'm truly digging the new Evanescence Songs, it's about time! Love "Sweet Sacrifice". It Rocks!
