I'm still only occasionally listening but when I do I prefer jazz and the traditional things. I may have to switch the dial though Sao.... yea I will do that.

I hope you are well my friend?

I'm sorry Mr. Saoirse is injured. My best to him.

Things are ok with me, just a few twists and turns to keep it all interesting! lol Gotta keep laughing and smiling through it.

I have some nice CDs but..... they can wait a little bit more. I do love to put them on when I sit and wrap my treasures for people - I love to spend time wrapping too, all the ribbons and bows are fun...... I generally make a big to-do with all that! lol

Right now I'm listening to

Let It Snow ~ New Black Eagle Jazz Band

GREAT!!! I have to tell you a story. Years back - my niece (probably 5 at the time) and I went to Logan airport to pick up my dad. He was coming home for Christmas etc. So the two of us head in, complete with Christmas music, pins and each of us had on a headband that had 'antler's' - you know the crazy kind - it had bells, it was red and green - just funny festive.

So we're waiting for 'Papa' and folks around us were smiling at us.... waiting, waiting, no Papa, this man, a southern who was just passing through wanted to buy them off us - lol I think he offered like $20 dollars or something..... anyway, you couldn't help but see us - geesh there was a crowd - Papa - nope walked right by us! When we saw the flight crew we knew he had to be somewhere, so we're walking through the terminal - singing of course, and calling out Papa....... when we did see him it was a fair distance down the terminal and we both SCREAMED OUT PAPA! The whole terminal heard us - but not Papa. We yelled out again - still he is just standing there looking around - the third time is the charm - because everyone around us shouted out too!

He was so embarrassed! Of course my niece and I loved it!

So when I wrap I do the headband but the bell earrings on etc..... singing to the high heavens!
