How exciting! I’m a SPOTLIGHT DANCER over at MONDAY MUSIC MOVES ME!
This is a free week, so I’m going to go with a morning theme! So many of us hate mornings, but without a morning, we would not have the start of a new day! I personally am a morning person. I’m not always crazy about having to be out of the house in the morning by 7:30, but I’m usually my best early in the day – after a cup of COFFEE of course!

 

Morning Songs!

Bob Marley – Wake Up and Live

Cat Stevens – Morning has Broken

Dan Fogelberg – To the Morning (this was a favorite of mine in college)

Watching the sun
Watching it come
Watching it come up over the rooftops.

Cloudy and warm
Maybe a storm
You can never quite tell
From the morning.

Chorus
And it’s going to be a day
There is really no way to say no
To the morning.

Yes it’s going to be a day
There is really nothing left to
Say but
Come on morning.

Waiting for mail
Maybe a tale
From an old friend
Or even a lover.

Sometimes there’s none
But we have fun
Thinking of all who might
Have written.

And maybe there are seasons
And maybe they change
And maybe to love is not so strange.

The sounds of the day
They hurry away
Now they are gone until tomorrow.

When day will break
And you will wake
And you will rake your hands
Across your eyes
And realize

That it’s going to be a day
There is really no way to say no
To the morning.

Yes it’s going to be a day
There is really nothing left to say but
Come on morning.

I love participating in Java’s Meet Me on Monday! It prompts me to blog at least ONCE during the week! Stop over and visit Java at Never Growing Old and join in the fun. All you have to do is answer FIVE simple questions!

1. Tomorrow I am working. I had an unexpected relaxing three day weekend. Unexpected, as in I didn’t request any of the days off, the schedules just fell that way. If you work or have worked in retail you know how RARE that is!

2. When is your birthday? Feb 22

3. What are you currently excited about? Hmmm, not much of anything. I’m in a rut. Need to get out of it! My daughter is excited about a concert on Saturday in Philly, it’s on South Street – the “hip” part of the city. I am looking forward to spending the hours they are at the concert exploring on my own. I never make the time otherwise!

4. Do you have any secrets? Sure do!

Got a secret
Can you keep it?
Swear this one you’ll save
Better lock it, in your pocket
Taking this one to the grave
If I show you then I know you
Won’t tell what I said
Cause two can keep a secret
If one of the m is dead…

5. What do you normally eat for lunch? I work at a Walgreens, and most times I don’t plan ahead and pack a lunch, so I will usually grab something from the store.

 

Thanks A-Latte for stopping by!
