Some #1 Songs for You

I found this at the Cafe at the End of the Universe today, and I thought it looked like lots of fun - so I told Penelope Anne I was going to steal it.

Find out what song was number one the day you were born or any other day.
  • The day Jeffrey was born - Tossin' and Turnin' - Bobby Lewis
  • The day I was born - Ticket to Ride - The Beatles
  • The day we got married - On My Own - Patti Labelle and Michael McDonald
  • The day Beth was born - Release Me - Wilson Phillips
  • and, the day Cory was born - Baby Got Back - Sir Mix-A-Lot (I wonder if that's why he likes that song so much?)



Sorry, I got started and I just couldn't stop. What song was #1 on your special day?

The Job That Doesn't End

So far I've shoveled the driveway twice today. Yes, that picture in the previous post led you to believe that my teenage son is shoveling the driveway today. Believe me - he will be. It is snowing hard, and it is snowing a lot. Jeffrey and I got up and shoveled this morning. By the time we had finished, the driveway was already covered in snow again. I just finished shoveling again. There's no school today, and the kids were still in bed, but next time it's their turn.

Now, normally I like to wait until the snow stops falling before shoveling, because it seems like such a waste of time otherwise. However, this is a wet, heavy snow, and if we don't keep it shoveled, it will be next to impossible to do. I have a hard enough time lifting the shovel by the time I get to the edge of the driveway, and it gets even harder the higher those piles on the sides get!

So, while I was shoveling, I started thinking of this song:



My kids used to love singing this song when they were little. It can get kind of irritating, but it's cute, and it was so much fun to watch them get such a kick out of it.

They Said to Blog About This Song

I don't do everything I'm told. Really I don't.



I just saw this last night, and I thought it was fun. From the Richter Scales: Men Who Sing.
