Another this and that

 And Thursday finds me in a grumpy mood,

I’m not happy about the weather.  I really like autumn, but it seems like this year summer lingered through the entire month of October, and now it’s almost winter.  I don’t like winter.

Election Day was a major disappointment and I’m avoiding watching the news for a few days,

I don’t like working from home.  It’s fine for part of the week, but I need to be in the office at least some of the time.  But there are no plans to bring us back to the office right now, and I’m feeling frustrated.

And my stupid knees are starting to ache again.


Grumble, grumble, grumble.

    Hopefully by the time you read this things are looking better! I agree the weather went from summer to winter, other than the colors. Our election was just to decide if our county assessor would remain elected, or change to appointed, so nothing much. Unless you are the current elected assessor. I did see some disappointments in other states. Also some wins though. Next year will be the nail bitter.

    Hoping you have a better afternoon. The sun is shining! (sort of) which is always good here in the gloom zone. I like working from home - can't beat the commute. What I don't like is not being permitted into my office building, period (past the lobby). I might like to show up now and again! The election definitely didn't go the way many of us would have hoped. What I really don't like is the sudden cold. Thank you for allowing me to vent. Alana ramblinwitham.blogspot.com

    I remember being stuck at home. It was nice for a bit, but then I went a little stir crazy. It was nice to get out and walk (but that would be hard for you with your knees). Grumble away.

Music Monday

Another “your choice” week. How about new music from icons of the 60’s and 70’s? Let’s start with Jimmy Buffett’s posthumous hit, “Bubbles Up”. The Rolling Stones released a new song in 2023, it’s called “Angry”. The surviving Beatles (with some  help from AI) released “Now and Then”. And then Billy Joel …    The AI effects in the video blew me away… A note about the AI effects … the Beatles used it to isolate John’s vocals on an old demo.  Billy Joel had a young man play the piano then superimposed his own face onto the image of the younger man.

Ultimate Blog Party!!!!

thanks to suzanne , I decided to join the party. I got into blogging last year because of Suzanne. I've known her on message boards for awhile, but I've gotten to know her much better since entering the blogosphere. I've also met several others whose blogs I am starting to love, and look forward to meeting even more bloggers now that I've joined the party. So I guess that means I have to introduce myself. I am a single mom from Long Island. My older daughter, Jen, is a college freshman, going to school in New England. Younger daughter, Becca, is a high school junior. I am also an attorney with an insurance company, with offices in Jersey City, NJ, a really "wonderful" commute. I sit on the board of trustees at my synagogue (which means I do a lot of volunteer work there!), and I am active in various fundraisers for the American Cancer Society, currently planning for this year's Relay for Life. I like ot take photos, so you'll see many of them in ...

Saturday 9

  Blame It on the Bossa Nova Welcome to Saturday: 9 . What we've committed to our readers is that we will post 9 questions every Saturday. Sometimes the post will have a theme, and at other times the questions will be totally unrelated. Those weeks we do "random questions," so-to-speak. We encourage you to visit other participants posts and leave a comment. Because we don't have any rules, it is your choice. We hate rules. We love to  answer the questions, however, and here is today's questions! Saturday 9: Blame It on the Bossa Nova (1963) Unfamiliar with this week's tune? Hear it  here . Funny you should mention Eydie.  She’s sort of a relative.  My late mother-in-law always said that she and Eydie were cousins.  Eydie was a Sephardic Jew, as was my mother-in-law, so I have no reason to doubt the connection,  so I guess you can say my kids are related to Eydie,   Eydie and Neil Sedaka were cousins, but I’m not sure if Neil was related to my moth...
