(touch wood)

And I’m sitting here crying over Boney M. Who woulda ever thunk it?

I remember my mom (who is now 70 and forgetful) young and lithe, small hips moving on their own volition to Boney M through our panelled rooms.

And it’s funny that this post should come when I wrote exactly the opposite but that’s OK ’cause that’s how life is.

Thanks for reminding me you’re out here writing one of the best blogs ever. Your writing is ice on the window, pretty, at times hackled, always noteworthy.

I think that is the funniest story with the sweetest ending ever. Ever.

That song is so much better your way.

That might be the sweetest thing I’ve ever heard.

And “At least no one died.” made me giggle out loud. Josh is forever butchering songs and it brings me such joy. The accidental truths of misheard song lyrics is really something.

That is just so wonderful. If I were a teary person, I would probably be… well… teary.
“At least no one died.” I am going to sing it like that for ever and always.

Way to go, Dave!

Isaac’s been listening to Bing Crosby’s White Christmas cassette over and over again all week, and drumming along with chopsticks on a bucket.

It’s hard to feel Grinchy with a three year old in the house.

I’ve lost the tape, but I had Feliz Navidad on the same album as “Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer” and my personal favorite, “Percy the Puny Pointsettia”. Christmas hasn’t been the same since I lost it. I’ve got to find time to do a search. Keep dancing!
