Will You Be Staying After Sunday
The Peppermint Rainbow

Don’t let lonely Monday come again
Will you be staying after Sunday or go home on Monday
Will you be staying after Sunday or go home
Your lips are mine on Friday night
The next two days you hold me tight
But when it’s done, you always run, and I’m alone.
Will you be staying after Sunday or go home on Monday
I’ll keep waiting for that one day you’ll be mine
I’d give the world to keep you here
Why do you need to disappear
And when I press you do your best to stall for time.
I wouldn’t try to own your soul
You can be free
I only want you here each night
Loving me
Will you be staying after sunday or go home on Monday
We gotta let this feeling grow or let it end
You say you care well if you do
Don’t ever go I’m begging you
Don’t let lonely Monday come again
Will you be staying after Sunday or go home on Monday
Will you be staying after Sunday or go home on Monday
Will you be staying after Sunday or go home on Monday (fades out)

@loaf,

Like To Get To Know You
Spanky and Our Gang

Yes, I would like to get to know you, if I could
Like to get to know you
Finally I found, searching all around
Just was not the answer
One I thought was true
Looked a bit like you
Figured I might chance her
Hardly need to say
She went on her way
Said it was all over
Well it’s been some time
And I guess that I’m just meant to be a rover
Now I can’t promise that I’ll spend a day with you
Can’t promise that I’ll find a way with you
Can’t promise no
I can’t promise that I’ll love you
But I’d like to get to know you
Yes I would if I could

@loaf in a year has been hard I lost my husband’s brother in Wichita where he passed
just less than two months ago. Family is still in Wichita and that is an hour from us. ✨

Wichita Lineman
Song by Glen Campbell

I am a lineman for the county
And I drive the main road
Searchin’ in the sun for another overload
I hear you singing in the wire
I can hear you through the whine
And the Wichita lineman
Is still on the line
I know I need a small vacation
But it don’t look like rain
And if it snows that stretch down south
Won’t ever stand the strain
And I need you more than want you
And I want you for all time
And the Wichita lineman
Is still on the line
And I need you more than want you
And I want you for all time
And the Wichita lineman
Is still on the line

I Am a Rock
Simon & Garfunkel

A winter’s day
In a deep and dark December
I am alone
Gazing from my window to the streets below
On a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow
I am a rock I am an island
I’ve built walls
A fortress deep and mighty
That none may penetrate
I have no need of friendship friendship causes pains
It’s laughter and it’s loving I disdain
I am a rock I am an island
Don’t talk of love
Well I’ve heard the word before
It’s sleeping in my memory
I won’t disturb the slumber of feelings that have died
If I never loved I never would have cried
I am a rock I am an island
I have my books
And my poetry to protect me
I am shielded in my armor
Hiding in my room safe within my womb
I touch no one and no one touches me
I am a rock I am an island
And a rock feels no pain
And an island never cries

Good afternoon in frigid Oz.🥶 We will be getting colder by Monday but not 0 like you.

I have the pork and sauerkraut cooking for dinner. I do my kraut a little different – slow fry in butter with onions, mushrooms and about a tablespoon of sugar – it is yummy!😊

Took it easy today except for the cooking. May as well relax to start the year on a good note.😀 Sending love and warm hugs to you and Poppy.🥰🤗

Good Afternoon Sheba, Happy New Year 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I hope you are keeping warm, old man winter is being brutal in many parts of the country.
The crackers turned out very good. I still have a batch of dough in the fridge. Next time I roll it out I’ll make it a little more thin and smaller. I wanted to save time and made it larger.
Today I am making a bolognese sauce. Not using it today, to much left overs. Going to freezer in 3 or 4 containers to use in future meals. The fireworks yesterday was very pretty but so very noisy. Our community has alot of dogs, my next door neighbor too. I felt sorry for all those dogs and cats. Stay warm Sheba, keep Poppy warm and have a great weekend.
Take Care.

The Bailey’s sounds scrumptious, I am sure you and your husband enjoyed it.
The wine was delicious, I poured myself half a glass. And the crackers turned out very good.
Enjoy your weekend🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Performing Daily Ceremony

Having daily ritual or ceremony in our lives is very important to keep us connected to what really matters.

When we perform or participate in rituals and ceremonies, we enter into a state of mind that is different from mundane consciousness. Ranging in significance from bedtime stories to weddings, ceremonies and rituals are acknowledgments that an event or period of time has special meaning. As a result, they can have the effect of drawing us into the moment, inviting us to pay closer attention and tune into the subtle energies that are always present but that often go unrecognized. In addition, as we perform the same actions we have performed before and will perform again, we immerse ourselves in a river of continuity that extends back into the past and forward into the future.

Many of us have distanced ourselves from rituals that may have seemed too constricting or too attached to an organized religion we have chosen not to follow. However, we can reclaim the practices of ceremony and ritual to good effect, imbuing them with our new consciousness, and we do not have to wait for a big event to do it. We can engage in daily practices that include ritual and ceremony, reminding ourselves throughout the day of the sacredness of this life. In fact, if we look closely, we will see that our days are already made up of rituals, from the time we wake up to the time we retire. So we do not need to change anything except our perspective to imbue our day with an air of ceremony.

Most of our daily rituals revolve around nourishing and cleansing, both of which have always been sacred acts. With this in mind, we may pause before each meal, close our eyes, and say a silent thank you to the universe that provides. If we want to get more elaborate, we can light candles or bless our food. Similarly, as we wash ourselves in the morning and evening, we can choose to see the grace in this act of cleansing and purification as we release what has past and prepare ourselves for the new. We can be as simple or as complex as we like, so long as our attitude is one of reverence for this sacred moment in this sacred life. ✨✨✨
