I will ALWYwatch my Lions even if/since they lose! I was happy to find that they took the lead early and were able to hold on! I’m not going to say that I was NOT nervous because I was but we pulled off the dub and I’ll take it! Before the commercial breaks, they did have some really good music!:
I don’t care what Peter Schrager says about this tune but it’s one of my jams for sure!:
This jam is classic!:
And I’ve always liked this song but I really dug it especially today because my Lions finally finished!
Still out of order but I think Big Brother knew that I needed to hear this song last Sunday: It reminded me of working at dfcu in Livonia, in the winter, in college:
So, I have been bummed out since learning Friday about my uncle Rey’s passing. My cousin, Reyna, called my Mom and we both spoke to her on speakerphone. Hearing her voice with her Texan accent reminded me of being young. I have SO many fond memories of being there and my Dad was happiest when he was in Texas! I told Reyna that I had been there maybe four or five times in my life and her family made a HUGE impression on me!
So, yesterday I was with my Mom when she ordered flowers for his funeral. Visitation was today. I was thinking about Reyna‘s Texas accent this morning and that picture I have of both my aunt Olga and uncle Rey. I scrolled through Facebook as I was trying to get my bearings about me and wake up when I saw this picture:
My Tïa Alma wrote this post and included this picture of my aunt Olga and uncle Rey. I gasped and seeing this picture took my breath away. I was either 6 or 7 when I was first introduced to my relatives in Texas. And Olga is my Dad’s aunt. She is my grandpa’s sister. Seeing this picture took my breath away because I am seeing their faces. The one I have that I snuck taking in church is of their backs but is uncle Ray’s arm around her and her leaning in shows so much they were in love. They are together now.
My Mom called the funeral home today to make sure the flowers were delivered and hearing the Texas accent again made me smile. The man who answered the phone told us they were delivered and later in the evening, both of my cousins (their daughters) thanked my Mom for the flowers, told her how beautiful day were, and texted her pictures:
The woman we spoke with on Saturday did a wonderful job arranging the flowers! Seeing the arrangement’s beauty and with my aunt and uncle’s picture in my mind, it still takes my breath away and I can’t seem to get this song out of my head:
This is COMPLETELY out of water because I have a few songs posted on Facebook that I have not put on my blog but this one came this morning and brought with it TONS of memories! She opened for a Maroon 5 and introduce yourself as: “ Hi, I’m Sara and this is my band“ and she’s sat at her piano and started jamming! The person who I went to the cancer with, looked and me and we both said that she is really good! It was just before her first single came out but I remember hearing/seeing her play this song:
I’ve always liked the word, “Palindrome” and I suppose Thursday was the radio, “Palindrome.” I heard a GREAT u2 tune on my way to the dentist and on my way back home from the dentist. It was meant for me!:
I went to the dentist yesterday so was unable to post these but I have been listening to this song every day since August 26. More about that in a bit…:
But, it’s October or so of course, I’ve been listening to this one too:
I didn’t post these songs yesterday so I have already watched HocusPocus twice but I really love this song:
So, my Lions were 0-2 before today. Of course, I stood by them regardless because I LOVE Matthew Stafford!!! I have from the very beginning when Sean was playing pee-wee football for the Dearborn Lions! The past two losses were brutal.
But then, there was today. It was not pretty at all and if I was still a nailbiter, I wouldn’t have bitten my nails to the nub!!! But, they:we pulled it off in the end with a Matt Prater field goal!
it was magnificent!
Just like waking up just before midnight to see u2 play on David Letterman in my second apartment when I was 26 years old, I can finally share this video that showed up in my YouTube feed and I shared on Facebook on September 10. The win was magnificent!:
This just shows the extreme backlog I am in in posting tunes on my blog. I came across this song and shared it on Facebook almost a couple weeks sho because I had never heard the acoustic version. I used to JAM to this song constantly when I still could drive! This was back when Sean was young so I got to listen to my kind of music and nine seconds with music he started listening to. I miss that time in my life today…:
This particular tune showed up in my YouTube feed a couple weeks ago but I was bombarded for a while of GREAT random songs so I just posted them on Facebook and figured I would get back to them and post them on my blog.
it seems that this one is fitting today because my body is adjusting to the weather change of the seasons and I cannot warm up! Thank God that my brother, Jimmy, brought a rebozo for me yesterday. I have been wearing this since he brought it and I texted him today saying that I feel like our Abuela. She was always called with afghans around her constantly.
So today, I am, “Grabbing my guts” and just trying to warm up. I am finding to warm up. This song seems especially appropriate:
I finished my, “Slow Walk” of The Umbrella Academy yesterday, or rather, this morning. I know that I am late to the party but I thoroughly enjoyed it! I can’t wait for the third season to come out but since I am finished, I will just have to. It was pretty consistent throughout the two seasons that Klaus is my favorite!
I will say that I am more of an *NSYNC girl rather than The Backstreet Boys but I did laugh when this song played:
Made me laugh both times that he referenced this song as well:
I don’t know that I fully appreciated him until he described himself as, “Sexy Trash” though!!! 😂😂😂 The show has the BEST soundtrack!
