Easing back into the saddle

Well, here we go. Back in the saddle again. It is Monday. There is now a straight shot until school begins next month. Lots to do. Better not get too serious here yet. The week has just begun.

Being back in the saddle makes me think of cowboy songs. Here's one from the Brasil silly songs: Peanut Butter.

I desire (see June 13) to get writing some substantial blogs again soon. We'll see how that goes.

Ease into Mondays

We're back to our "Ease into Mondays" feature. As I'm still recuperating from Cornerstone, I really need this today. Not much profound going on.

I mentioned a bit of disappointment with the Lost Dogs show there. One of the lowlights was a new gag they tried where they pulled someone up out of the audience to sing one of their songs. It was this one: Bad Indigestion. Sorry to share the misery.

Monday after Father's Day

We had a lovely Father's Day yesterday. Came home from church and put some steaks on the grill. My family got me a nice sound system for the computer (with subwoofer!). That has me sampling all the music on the computer.

Sampling all the music has me deciding to make it a Monday tradition of easing into the week with something light-hearted (two weeks in a row makes it a tradition!). Traditions need some explaining:

I have a sister who lives in Sao Paulo, Brasil. We were able to go visit her and her family at Christmas time last year. During the 8 or 9 days we were there, we calculated that we spent 30 hours in the car trying to get around the city and to the beaches. During those 30 hours of very close quarters, something had to occupy the kids, so we listened (over and over) to what we called the "Brasil Silly Songs".

Here's another offering from the Brasil Silly Songs Greatest Hits: Cheech the School Bus Driver. (This is high class stuff.)
