The Rembrandts Lyrics
“I’ll Be There For You (Theme From Friends)”

So no one told you life was gonna be this way
Your job’s a joke, you’re broke, your love life’s D.O.A.
It’s like you’re always stuck in second gear
When it hasn’t been your day, your week, your month, or even your year, but

I’ll be there for you
(When the rain starts to pour)
I’ll be there for you
(Like I’ve been there before)
I’ll be there for you
(‘Cause you’re there for me too)

You’re still in bed at ten and work began at eight
You’ve burned your breakfast, so far things are going great
Your mother warned you there’d be days like these
But she didn’t tell you when the world has brought you down to your knees that

I’ll be there for you
(When the rain starts to pour)
I’ll be there for you
(Like I’ve been there before)
I’ll be there for you
(‘Cause you’re there for me too)

No one could ever know me
No one could ever see me
Seems you’re the only one who knows what it’s like to be me
Someone to face the day with, make it through all the rest with
Someone I’ll always laugh with
Even at my worst, I’m best with you, yeah!

It’s like you’re always stuck in second gear
When it hasn’t been your day, your week, your month, or even your year

I’ll be there for you
(When the rain starts to pour)
I’ll be there for you
(Like I’ve been there before)
I’ll be there for you
(‘Cause you’re there for me too)

I’ll be there for you
I’ll be there for you
I’ll be there for you
(‘Cause you’re there for me too)

Just wanted to let you know that I missed you in Trivia and also your posts. Hope you are beginning to feel better and with the lower Florida temps and humidity you can finally make some strides towards a full recovery. Do what you can and the rest will follow. Nothing like having those extra pair of hands around the house and in the kitchen.

Well, the power went out as I was typing. Returned and was happy that everything remained or so it seemed. Even went through recaptcha without a problem. But, after that, everything vanished and so I am starting over.

I still have the sniffles and did not venture out or saw hubby today. He is doing OK and I want to keep it that way. Besides, he would be very upset that he isn’t home to take care of me. It will be so nice to have him home again. The guys coming to help me get the house in order will be here Monday morning and will stay until all rooms are done. From what I understand they will be moving the frig and stove out just to be sure there are no nests or anything in those areas. The person who is the head of this cleaning crew also mentioned that they will be taking the drawers a part as well which is OK by me. I have also contacted Terminix to return to see where the animals are coming from. I have a feeling it could be the den door which leads out to the Lanai even though there are no remnants in that area outside. The furniture on the lanai will be removed to the carport for washing. Thankfully, they will do it and they will clean the lanai as well. I surmise that’s their starting point. The loveseat in the den and the sofas in the Great room will go outside for cleaning and to be sure they are still in excellent condition. I have no idea how they will remove anything else in that room because the furniture is quite heavy. I do have the saucers for moving heavy furniture and it will come in handy. Once everything is done, then furniture can be returned and then go on to the next room. I will be there watching and saying what goes and what stays. My new Shark vacs really come in handy. I cannot get over how powerful these are especially being battery operated. Love them so much, may take it to Rehab to use on the floor by hubby’s bedside. He is a messy eater and it may be something I can use on the mattress and mattress cover to help defray his itches.

Tonight is the first time I actually feel better. I haven’t been outside in days so cannot tell you how cool or warm it is. I do know that the temps have been in the mid 80s during the day and 60s at night. The humidity has been low as well. Really good not to be exposed to those high temps and humidity. And, oh yes, the A/C is working fine now.

Will be contacting our doctor’s office this week for a note stating that I need a pet to tell me when the phone rings and there is a knock at the door. Not sure of a dog or a cat, though one of each wouldn’t hurt. If I have a kitty, just do not know where to put the litter box and how to keep it from stinking the house. I definitely do not want the kitty outside with all the wildlife we have. Cannot wait to make that visit to our animal shelter (ASPCA). Funny, animals are permitted to visit the Rehab. Really cute to see them with their owners. The light in their pawrents is something to behold.

I hope you have a great evening. I can imagine seeing a fire in your fireplace this evening. Guess it’s time to change the A/C to heat. The moon is lighting up the entire outside. Right now I am glad not to be walking a pooch. Will need to do an alternative if I cannot get up to walk him/her.

Peace Out Peeps enjoy your evening and stay warm. 💕

@shoelady60,

Oz is in the 30’s I am getting under the covers with hubby with Poppy by the side of the bed.

“Spooky” – Classic IV

In the cool of the evenin’
When everything is gettin’ kind of groovy
I call you up and ask you if you’d like to
Go with me and see a movie

First you say no
You’ve got some plans for the night
And then you stop, and say, all right
Love is kinda crazy with a spooky little girl like you

You always keep me guessin’
I never seem to know what you are thinkin’
And if a fella looks at you
It’s for sure your little eye will be a-winkin’

I get confused
‘Cause I don’t know where I stand
And then you smile and hold my hand
Love is kinda crazy with a spooky little girl like you
Spooky, heh, yeah

If you decide someday to stop
This little game that you are playin’
I’m gonna tell you all the things
My heart’s been a-dyin’ to be sayin’

Just like a ghost
You’ve been a-hauntin’ my dreams
So I’ll propose on Halloween
Love is kinda crazy with a spooky little girl like you

Spooky, spooky
Oh, whoa, all right, I said spooky
Oh, yeah, yeah, I said spooky
Yeah, yeah
Oh spooky, spooky
I said spooky

Monster Mash
Song by Bobby “Boris” Pickett & The Crypt Kickers

I was working in the lab late one night
When my eyes beheld an eerie sight
For my monster from his slab began to rise
And suddenly to my surprise
He did the Monster Mash
(The Monster Mash)
It was a graveyard smash
(He did the Mash)
It caught on in a flash
(He did the Mash)
He did the Monster Mash
From my laboratory in the castle east
To the master bedroom where the vampires feast
The ghouls all came from their humble abodes
To get a jolt from my electrodes
They did the Monster Mash
(The Monster Mash)
It was a graveyard smash
(They did the Mash)
It caught on in a flash
(They did the Mash)
They did the Monster Mash
The zombies were having fun
The party had just begun
The guests included Wolf Man
Dracula and his son
The scene was rockin’, all were diggin’ the sounds
Igor on chains, backed by his baying hounds
The coffin-bangers were about to arrive
With their vocal group, “The Crypt-Kicker Five”
They played the Monster Mash
(The Monster Mash)
It was a graveyard smash
(They played the Mash)
It caught on in a flash
(They played the Mash)
They played the Monster Mash
Out from his coffin, Drac’s voice did ring
Seems he was troubled by just one thing
He opened the lid and shook his fist
And said
“Whatever happened to my Transylvania twist?”
It’s now the Monster Mash
(The Monster Mash)
And it’s a graveyard smash
(It’s now the Mash)
It’s caught on in a flash
(It’s now the Mash)
It’s now the Monster Mash
Now everything’s cool, Drac’s a part of the band
And my Monster Mash is the hit of the land
For you, the living, this Mash was meant too
When you get to my door, tell them Boris sent you
Then you can Monster Mash
(The Monster Mash)
And do my graveyard smash
(Then you can Mash)
You’ll catch on in a flash
(Then you can Mash)
Then you can Monster Mash

Witchcraft – Song by Frank Sinatra

Those fingers in my hair
That sly come hither stare
That strips my conscience bare
It’s witchcraft
And i’ve got no defense for it
The heat is too intense for it
What good would common sense for it do
‘Cause it’s witchcraft wicked witchcraft
And although i know it’s strictly taboo
When you arouse the need in my
My heart says yes indeed in me
Proceed with what your leading me to
It’s such an ancient pitch
But one i wouldn’t switch
‘Cause there’s no nicer witch than you
