I Am a Rock
Song by 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

A Hazy Shade of Winter
Song by Simon & Garfunkel

Time, time time, see what’s become of me
While I looked around for my possibilities
I was so hard to please
Don’t look around
The leaves are brown
And the sky is a hazy shade of winter
Hear the Salvation Army band
Down by the riverside’s, there’s bound to be a better ride
Than what you’ve got planned
Carry your cup in your hand
And look around
Leaves are brown, now
And the sky is a hazy shade of winter
Hang on to your hopes, my friend
That’s an easy thing to say
But if your hopes should pass away
Simply pretend that you can build them again
Look around
The grass is high
The fields are ripe
It’s the springtime of my life
Seasons change with the scenery
Weaving time in a tapestry
Won’t you stop and remember me
At any convenient time?
Funny how my memory skips while looking over manuscripts
Of unpublished rhyme
Drinking my vodka and lime
I look around
Leaves are brown, now
And the sky is a hazy shade of winter
Look around
Leaves are brown
There’s a patch of snow on the ground
Look around
Leaves are brown
There’s a patch of snow on the ground
Look around
Leaves are brown
There’s a patch of snow on the ground

The Sound of Silence
Song by Simon & Garfunkel

Hello darkness, my old friend
I’ve come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence
In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
‘Neath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence
And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never share
No one dared
Disturb the sound of silence
“Fools” said I, “You do not know
Silence like a cancer grows
Hear my words that I might teach you
Take my arms that I might reach you”
But my words like silent raindrops fell
And echoed in the wells of silence
And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made
And the sign flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming
And the sign said, “The words of the prophets
Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls
And whispered in the sounds of silence”

No shopping today. It was foggy all day. The sun came out to say Hi just before it was time for the evening clouds to appear. Weather people are thinking that Thursday may bring some rain. We sure could use it. Meantime, A/C not needed.

Hubby seems to be a bit better today. He’s walking better and the dementia seems to be a thing of the past, at least for now. He has had four days of good memory, though carrying on a conversation was never a problem. Thinking that some of the problems could have stemmed from medication, I contacted the pharmacist and changed things around. Some of the meds were better in the evening, while others the morning. I am hoping for no more relapse. Then again, only time will tell.

Well, back to work. I’m in the kitchen doing KP duty. So, back to work I go. Enjoying your gifs. Take care. Stay safe. Glad your cold is almost gone. Hmm….wonder if part of the problem was the sinus issue. That’s one thing I dread. Getting a cold and having a sinus attack at the same time. No fun. Instead of tea, I’m having chicken broth with all kinds of stuff added to it. Yum…..

Hello Sheba, it was a beautiful Sunday here. No baking today, just took it easy.
My cough is from a slight asthma, it comes on goes. The cough drops does help, I get spells of coughing at times. I am glad you are almost 💯 percent well from your cold.
We are watching the National Christmas Tree Lighting 🎄 🌲 Shania Twain looks good.
Gloria Estafan and kid also and LL Cool makes great host. But my favorite was Ariana DeBose singing What Child Is This.
Take care Sheba and stay warm ❄️❄️🌲🌲🌲🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄

Good afternoon to you. Mom and sis will be back around 5:30 this afternoon. Sis sent an email this morning that the had arrived on land. They will not be happy with the weather in the ‘burgh.😫 Opal ring? I lay first claim since that’s my birthstone but sis was there to help her pick it out so who knows.🙄

KC has this game, let your relatives know they can turn off the TV right now!👍 I’m already toasting their win while my pork chops bake.🍷 This is the first game this year that they are not being carried on our local TV??

Not sure if I’ll go up to mom’s tomorrow. Still have a slight cough and don’t want to pass it on to them. They will be busy unpacking, getting groceries, mail, etc., so I think I’ll wait until mid week. We may get some snow by Friday.❄🥶

Sending hugs your way.🤗✨🤗
