That was just too much fun for an old lady ...

I just got done adding music to my blog

I had SO MUCH FUN

I have to thank

Susan at Between Naps On The Porch

She was sharing blog secrets

I always wanted YOUR SONG by ELTON JOHN

To be playing

And, now I do

Plus a few other songs too

I went to High School in the early 70's

Yes, I'm an old lady now but Man did I have fun

And, I went to college & joined a sorority

Line Danced to the Doobie Brothers

Listened to Billy Joel tell me I was ok

Just the Way I was

Which I needed to hear after my

Major college love broke my heart

Brandy made me feel like it was ok that

the guy I liked didn't like me

cause I could go on ... just like she did

Oh, and Janis ... come on ...

 who doesn't love her song

And, Carol sang to my soul

Friends ...  That's what I had

After the said boy ... and he was

I see that now

Anyway, they got me through

Joe told me the same thing

I just heard him yesterday

So, when I figured out how to do this

I had to add him

I have to tell you .. I am a Rock & Roll Gal

Mr. Boatman was in a band when I met him

I had no idea he was a Nerdy Guy

Getting his Masters Degree

I just knew that he played guitar

In a Rock & Roll band

(no they didn't play much longer but

it sure was fun on weekends)

I'm sure I'll change these around

A Bit with time but my favorite song

The one that I fell in love with in

Junior High & again in college is

Your Song by Elton John

Damn Life Is Good ...

Back to my Youth

On my way back from taking my son to school I had a moment.
Not that kind of moment. A 'wow I used to be young' one.

On the radio came the song, Roxanne

I was back ... just that quick ... to my youth.

Here I was, a 50ish old lady ... rocking out ... in my car ... in the spitty rain ... while those other youths ... listened to what ever it is they listen to now. Just kidding ... I actually like some of the new tunes.

Man, it was great being young and having those memories of when 'it' came out. All of you older youths ... think back to when you heard that song ... that Summer ... that year ...

Now, I have to figure out what happened since then ... cause, I'm old now.

Oh, well through the wrinkles, I'm still that 19 year old girl listening to rock and roll. At least my old age hasn't taken away those memories ... not yet.

Damn life is good isn't it !!!
