So, after some hesitation, I have a new phone and I also have a new chair (at least that’s what it feels like). I thought that everything was transferred over to my new phone but I have lost some of my subscriptions on YouTube so I am blindly scrolling through YouTube to find something to watch. But then I received the grounding I needed:
I was at WMU when this song came out. I think that I needed to be reminded of a simpler time because this is proving to be so real!!! At least somewhere in there, my phone still knows me!!!
Okay, I am exhausted and my Mom is resting before I get ready for bed. Purple Hearts is over now and I took my contacts out already. I got on Facebook and I saw that a Facebook friend posted this which made me laugh hysterically!:
My son is about to be 21 and as a teacher, I would never homeschool because I was working when he was supposed to be learning. But when I read that meme, I laughed because probably a month ago, Sean was talking to my Mom and me on the phone and he said that he didn’t know that ‘beef’ was slang and frowned upon when you were speaking with customers. He is working with an irrigation company.
My Mom was holding the phone and we were on speaker and after he told that to us, I said, “What’s beef? Beef is when you need to gats to go to sleep.”
I just said that in passing because I was in high school when that song came out and Sean stopped talking and said that, “I never thought the day would come when he would hear me “Biggie Smalls! “I started to laugh and was reminded of one I was puzzlin’ at home when he came home from school and I was jammin’ to some Bob Marley and singing it as loud as I could! He knew that I knew the words and he was blown away that I did!
I told him that Bob Marley is even before my generation so it’s crazy that he knows it! We both are both know why he knows it and I knew it but I love it today still!!! He’s classic for sure!!!
I just got home from my MRI and I ate my dinner and I am starting to crash now. This was a success but I am exhausted!
I will not leave my house again until next month for another haircut and an appointment with a new primary care doctor. I put Purple Hearts on but I thought of this song as I begin to crash. I was in high school:
My Mom is resting before we begin the final stretch of my tupher. I am feeling it’s starting to settle into my bones but I will grab my thoughts and get this done… this song is what I am thinking after my MRI:
So, my nephews’ mom messaged me Sunday and told me about a new movie on Netflix. She told me that I have to watch it because the guy in it looks like Sean! So that was the movie my mom and I watched that night:
As the movie started, I could see that he looked similar to my son but he did not look like him! I should know because I am his mother! But then, as the movie went on, he made faces that Sean makes and he has the same lips as Sean and I know because Sean has my lips.
i messaged Erica back and said that I agree that he does it look like Sean and she told me that her and her daughter watched it twice. So I watched it Monday night as well. He told me that she asked her daughter who he looks like and immediately she said, “Sean.”
I did not watch it today because I got my haircut and eyebrows waxed instead so I was too tired to watch TV when I got home. As I am reading this now in the early hours of the morning, I may or may not have downloaded the Purple Heart soundtrack on my Apple Music playlists…
I think this is a good transition from my teenybopper movies now then I’m 40 years old. I’m really digging the music as well! I can’t decide which song I like the best so I will just put a couple of my faves here:
I like the stripped version of these songs and it makes me feel not as teenybopper. It sounds more mature. There will be a third showing in the future but not tonight because I have an MRI scheduled.
So, I just wrote a blog post titled Blessed and I edited it after posting it and made it #Blessed because you know what song was in my head!:
I thought of this song because I was actually thinking of Tom Holland and Zendaya‘s Lip Sync Battle and I’m going to put this here because I want to watch again!:
I thought of this song last night when I was blow drying my hair. This was a song I used to love to sing along with the radio! I can remember with longing filling my lungs with air and belting out the bridge. That seems like a lifetime ago. My singing ability.
My hair is longer than Robyn’s is but I wonder if that cut is in my future because shorter hair is better (easier) with having MS. If I opted for that haircut, I would have to be singing that song in my head constantly!!!:
This is the latest game I have been playing on my phone. It reminds me of playing Memory with my cousin, Melissa. It actually helps me with my hand-eye coordination so it makes it easier to put my contacts in. I think my only saving grace is having had them for 28 years so a lot of it is muscle memory at this point, I think.
I have to get three of a kind and put it in the boxes at the bottom. I have been playing for a while and I am on level 150 but I can’t tell you how many times I have tried to win the level but it doesn’t matter because that’s not the point of it anyway for me.
The Apple Music playlist I was listening to finished so a different song started playing and just like that, I was a freshman in college and back at Western!!!
Yesterday, we went to St. Alphonsus. My Mom took so many pictures and as I sat in the car I realized that that’s as much a blow to her as it is to me! She was an adult making all of the memories we all have from there and I was just a kid. My family LIVED at St. Alphonsus! I thought I would share a bunch of the pictures here today but I can’t. I looked at this picture it’s just began to cry… AGAIN!!:
I have ALWAYS been an overly dramatic teenager and especially while I was a student within these walls of both the grade and high school! This is the song that is playing in my head now:
This song seems super fitting to me and I wish I knew how to make a Flipagram and set the pictures I have to this song but I am 40 so I can’t do that!!!
The other day, we listened to Smokey Robinson music as my Mom washed my legs and tended to my feet. Smokey Robinson songs are so familiar to me! It reminds me of being a child because I heard so much of that music growing up! I grew up with so much Motown music so when I heard this song playing from the basement, I thought it was Smokey Robinson. I really like that song and I didn’t think I heard it before.
I went downstairs as my brother Steve was listening to music and I asked him to “Play that Smokey Robinson song!” I don’t think that my brother made fun of me too much when he corrected me to tell me that that song is sung by Lenny Kravitz. I really liked his voice and I think it sounded like Smokey Robinson and that is a hill that I will die on!!!
