a patriotic song.

I could spend many a paragraph waxing poetic about my love of this country and the emotions that are stirred in me every time I see a man in a military uniform, watch a flag waving in the breeze, or hear the national anthem. Instead, I'll just share a bit of patriotic humor in the hopes of reminding everyone how great a place this country of ours is.

God bless America and Happy 4th!

a fun list.

Thanks to various and sundry friends on the interwebs for sharing the above news and links and for sharing my love of pie.

Happiness is...one more sleep til Christmas.

Pretend this posted yesterday, okay?

In anticipation of one of the best days of the year I whipped together this fun little video using some puppets I made out of scraps of craft stuff I had in my closet. And using my electric keyboard I composed a little ditty and then sang all the parts myself.  It's based on the Dickens classic, A Christmas Carol. Tell me what you think!

Okay, okay, so those are the Muppets and Paul Williams wrote the music and I had nothing to do with the writing or the voices. But I've watched it a lot. And I sing along every time.  That counts for something, right?

Here's to one more sleep til Christmas.  Happy 11th day!
