B/c you've been burning it at both ends and now have too much time on your hands.
That's it gima. Am cleaning the house top to bottom, though, for showing tomorrow, so I am busy.

Thanks, Sandi. You, too have nailed it: post-Christmas blues to some extent.

I try to, but as my own un-Busted D Day approaches, whenever I try to support someone here, I think of that adage: "Those that can't do, teach." (joke: apologies to all teachers.)

Thanks, mo3. So are you. Funny how some days (like today) I feel more loved here than almost anywhere else.

It did! Marry me, Serenity. Uh, oh: I already proposed to Greek this morning
And now I know what began this funk. Today as I cleaned house-for-sale, I had ipod blasting on shuffle. For months, I would skip past songs that were favorites of - or poignant to - Mrs. G. and I. Today, I said screw it, it's just music. Time to get over and past it. I did fine. Except for one.
Right before he died, John Lennon wrote his last song and recorded it on a small tape recorder atop his piano - first take. Based on a Robert Browning poem, it was later arranged and sung absolutely beautifully by our favorite singer-songwriter, Mary Chapin Carpenter on a John Lennon Tribute cd. It was one of our absolute favorites. Heard it today. Cried. Still beautiful, but as one of "our" songs, now it's just complete bullsh!t. I do feel better having back-tracked the beginning of this funk, though.
And, Lord knows I feel much better after hearing from you, my friends.
