Sunday morning gratitude
September 25, 2011 By Leave a Comment
Driving in Silence – on my drive last night. After attending the Canadian conference for my Swiss skin care and cosmetics business, I drove in silence. My head was spinning with ideas and I had butterflies of excitement. Instead of turning on the music, I just enjoyed the quiet time!
My amazing Husband – so blessed that he is spending a fun weekend with our son, while I work my business.
John emailed this picture to me this morning. I’d say my husband and son are thriving on their “man” weekend!
My iPhone – while showering and getting ready for my party this morning, I utilized the “iPod” app and listened to my “Amazing” playlist!!
I’m off to pamper my friend Tamara & her friends with a foot soak and diva afternoon. Have a wonderful Sunday!
Stay Amazing,

My friend Michelle introduced me to this wicked song yesterday!! The lyrics are so powerful.
“Who said you can’t be the best?” – Selena Gomez
I love this music video and all the symbols they filmed for it!
Selena Gomez & The Scene - Who Says
I wish I could sing… until my voice develops (ha ha), I’ll keep singing in the shower, to my son AND listening to awesome music!

I trust the lyrics of this song will move you, as much as they did me! I found it very powerful.
What did you take away from this song?
I loved the emphasis on “slow down”. Everytime I listen to it though, something else stands out to me!

Suddenly I See by KT Tunstall
It is the opening song from one of my favorite movies, the Devil Wears Prada! This YouTube.com video is a compilation of clips from the movie with this wicked song.
I’m feeling very sassy today! Are you?

_______________________________________
This playlist is really random – it matches my spontaneous personality!
I’m not sure if you recall this or not – BUT I don’t listen to lyrics much. I am a beat person – if the tempo of the song moves me – then I’m hooked. For all I know – a song could be crude or depressing – it usually takes me listening to it about 100 times before I figure that out.
I’d LOVE to hear what your favorite songs are – so I can add to my playlists!
Thanks to my husband for getting my iPod setup. Do you recall him spending hours preparing our iTunes database? Read the blog post – Singing Out Loud!

Singing Out Loud
July 26, 2009 By 7 Comments
Hope you’ve had an amazing weekend!
My marvelous husband’s Star Birthday is tomorrow and I gave him his gift early ;)
(Thank goodness for our Costco rebate check – I could treat him!)
John has been talking about an iPod for a while. He LOVES music (and thinks I should be able to identify the artist and name of song on que – however that is part of the “opposite” skills that brought our relationship together!). My auctioneer hubby also wanted to upload clips from sales he’d done to learn from and improve. Always learning…that’s what life is all about.
Thanks to my beautiful friends Tam & Nolan – I was surprised with an iPod Shuffle a few weeks ago!
Our friends Johnny and Jen kindly shared their playlists with us while they were here. So John had a HUGE head start to his library of music. He has honestly been so addicted to iTunes for the past 1 1/2 days. I love it – he’s so excited to learn everything. John was busy compiling music for his work trip tomorrow with his new toy. I wanted to spend time with him – so I made myself at home next time surfing the net.
I had no idea John was going to get so many hours of entertainment out of this present! Out of nowhere John informs me he’s going to mow the lawn. When I turned to look at him – he was so cute!!
I was doing some things inside when I hear this loud voice singing away. I thought it was the computer still playing iTunes but no – it was John! He was outside mowing and just givener!!
Ha ha – I’m laughing WITH! It was amazing to hear my hubby’s voice singing out loud with the music on his new iPod.
That’s what life is all about. Sing like no one is listening ;)
