MY LATEST OBSESSION ...

MY LATEST OBSESSION!

I never truly realized how much music shaped my life throughout the years until I became a bit older.

I owe a huge thanks to my folks who introduced me to such amazing artists throughout my life.

The songs that were played on the car radio as we drove to the beach.

The artists that were played on our hi-fi on eight track tapes.

The classics that were filtered throughout the house on Sundays mornings.

Sirius XM Radio has brought back all these songs in a special way. I have found a few channels that I have been listening to during my commute to work that have stood out:

THE BRIDGE

(James Taylor, Fleetwood Mac, Simon & Garfunkel Etc)

THE BLEND

(Phil Collins, Elton John, Billy Joel Etc)

These two channels have the combination of classic and easy listening with a dab of soft rock thrown in. I highly recommend them.

I cannot tell you how much more enjoyable my commute has been while listening to these great songs!

What is your latest obsession?

Love Story in Burlington, VT ...

It started the morning I decided to visit Muddy Waters (Coffee House) in Burlington, Vermont. I was told by the locals that if I was looking for a quiet place to write and enjoy a good cup of java, this was the place. I entered into a few different level rooms containing booths, cozy benches and chairs. After ordering an Iced Machiatto, I settled into a nice corner bench adjacent to a bookshelf. It was quiet, the perfect seat to get some reading done. My reason for spending a quiet morning here was to work through a few more chapters in The Artist's Way. (Julia Cameron's ~ Guide to Inspire Artists). Upon looking around, I noticed that there was a small, rolled up piece of paper tucked away in the brick wall behind me. At first, I was not sure whether to take it out and read it, or not. Perhaps I have seen too many "Candid - Punked" like shows, and someone was watching my every move. Pushing these paranoid thoughts aside, I reached over, read it and I was elated...

Letters Across The Miles

LETTERS ACROSS THE MILES Dear Jennifer, I am quite excited to be sharing this journey of "Old Fashioned Letter Writing" (online) with you ... It is a long lost personal touch that needs to be revisited. We live in a world of Tweets, IMs & text messages - Time to Get Back to Basics! I wanted to touch upon your recent thoughts on "Perfection". I, too, find myself procrastinating over starting new projects. The fear I will not be able to finish what I start. My second thought is failing myself for not going the distance. I was amazed with a few quick chats and we were out of the gate running with this new column - and new additions to our blogs, "Letters Across the Miles". I think this is the "Push" that we both needed to jump right in! Funny, how you also mentioned how our grade school teachers would ask us to "Show Them Our Work" when it came to Math problems ...and weaving this theme into real life. Can yo...
