so far

the interweb  seems to have been broken for me
for much of today so far
which means i am way behind reading my FL
which i mostly have to skim through anyway...
but it's for the best i think today.

my domain name transfer finally went through to my new host
and i set up a new simple homepage there
just links to my blog and shops and such
and it seems to be working OK now.

then i set about working my my cafepress shop
changing back to a premium shop
and made some progress on that
but have a lot more to add.

then the ups man arrived
with my new meditation cushion
which i love!

so that's it for me today so far.
not bad :)

so pleased

best oldie on my shuffle
that played at the laundromat
as i was watching the dryers spin.

we saw him in person a couple years ago
and he sang all my favorite old songs of his
which i did not expect him to do at all
so i was ever so pleased :)

and you can never have too much bob.

heavenly day

Best new song on my shuffle that played
when I was walking down the street
and the sky was so perfect...
I don't usually  post lyrics
but am taking a page from poetbear :)

Heavenly Day

Oh Heavenly day
All the clouds blew away
Got no trouble today
With anyone

The smile on your face
I live only to see
It's enough for me baby
It's enough for me
Oh heavenly day
Heavenly day
Heavenly day

Tomorrow may rain with sorrow
Here's a little time we can borrow
Forget all our troubles in these moments so few
Oh we can right now the only thing that all that we really have to do

Is have ourselves a heavenly day
Lay here and watch the trees sway
Oh can't see no other way
No way
No way
Heavenly day heavenly day heavenly day

No one on my shoulder
Bringing me fears
Got no clouds up above me
Bringing me tears
Got nothing to tell you
I got nothing much to say
Only I'm glad to be here with you
On this heavenly heavenly heavenly heavenly heavenly day
Oh all the troubles gone away
Oh for awhile anyway
For awhile anyway
Heavenly day
Heavenly day
Heavenly day
Heavenly day
Heavenly day
Oh heavenly day

-Patty Griffin

The whole album is great.

son of bob

And I could listen to The Wallflowers
for hours too... Son of Bob = good.

God Says Nothing Back

Seems like the world's gone underground
No gods or heroes
Dare to go down
Tear drops from a hole in heaven come
Overhead like ravens
Dropping down like bombs
Through the mornings silver frosted glow
God says nothing back
But I told you so
I told you so

God bless the void
Of my daydreams
Back in the snow
Making angel wings
Slow motion dancing lights have gone
Sail beneath the burning yellow sun
I'm calling out to the deep ends of my bones
Time says nothing back
But I told you so
I told you so

Still waters rising in my mind
Black and deep
Smoke behind my eyes
Last night I could not sleep at all
I hallucinated that you were in my arms
To be in your heart
I filled my own
Love says nothing back
But I told you so
I told you so

I'm still here
And climbing every rung
If someone saw something
Now Someone speak up
Back over the rotted bridge I cross
Open up these graves
Let these bodies talk
I'm Burried under leaves blood red and gold
Death says nothing back
But I told you so
I told you so....
