First Blog

I have always wanted a blog, and now I have one. Yay. I have loads of opinions on everything. This annoys some, particularly Bill. He is with the boys at Tony Hawk's Boom Boom Huckjam tonight so I have some time on my hands.

I have recently been privileged to pick up a couple of the best albums in a long time. The first is Van Lear Rose by Loretta Lynn. I am not a fan of most modern pop country, this is more of a bluegrass with some bluesy elements. Jack White (of the White Stripes and an amazing musician) produced this album and backs up Loretta. There is so much raw emotion in this CD, there are times I wanted to get up and dance and sing along (High On A Mountaintop) and times that made me cry (Little Red Shoes.) Jack constantly amazes me with his versatility. We went to see the White Stripes perform at the Mesa Amphitheatre and it was one of the best shows I have ever attended. He is definitely going to go down as a music great. He also had a decent size role as traveling musician "Georgia" in the movie "Cold Mountain." Wonderful movie, too!

Another newfound masterpiece is the new Alison Kraus CD. I knew her from some of her work on the Oh Brother Where Art Thou soundtrack. Anyway- Bill and I walked into Barnes and Noble and heard it and had to have it! I barely got it the other day but it already has a permanent spot in the Cd player.

I am on another decorating spree and I can't get enough of toile. I could literally cover my whole house in it right now. My color scheme of black, white and taupe has really stuck, so much so that I hope I don't go overboard. I stayed up until 2 am last night finishing some curtain I made for my family room. I get on these maniacal bents sometimes you know. I still want to do something for my sliding door. I really am on a mission to get better organized too. What else is new... but seriously, I need to sort my pictures and get my stupid office straigtened up once and for all. Also- update my filing system. Sometimes I think I have ADD or something.
