Music Mondays

Decided to get back to a somewhat regular blogging routine again (nothing like having something to ACTUALLY talk about instead of mindless, but fun posts about my favorite 80's toy or humiliation brought on by any one of my 3 children)

so here we go.

This is a new blog I have never visited before. The blog is called Liberal Lollygagging and the Post is called
Monday Music


here is how it works;

I love music. I love to find out about new (to me) music. Sometimes, I find that music speaks for me better than I would in a situation. Every Monday Christina puts up a song that is currently speaking for her.... So, join the fun! What song is currently speaking for you? Visit her blog and Add your post to Mr. Linky

pssss...some of the best songs i have discovered on other people's blogs.....here is mine

(backstory) As i have been blogging about non-stop lately, my birthmother and i have been reunited. i was adopted at birth and have known since i was 10 that "Maureen" was out there somewhere. So the first time i heard this song the tears could not fall down my cheeks fast enough for the next ones to come. And even now after finding her it is still such a raw numbness where all that confusion and lonlieness was. I am not mad or hurt or angry anymore, but for a long time i was. It was the question "are you thinking about me" For so long this was my song. Now I am gonna share it with you.


The song is called "I Wonder" by Kellie Pickler.




"I Wonder"
Sometimes I think about you.
Wonder if you're out there somewhere thinkin' about me.
And would you even recognize,
The woman that your little girl has grown up to be.
Cuz I look in the mirror and all I see,
Are your brown eyes looking back at me.
They're the only thing you ever gave to me at all.

Oh I hear the weather's nice in California.
There's sunny skies as far as I can see.
If you ever come back home to Carolina.
I wonder what you'd say to me.

I think about how it ain't fair.
That you weren't there to braid my hair like mothers do.
You weren't around to cheer me on.
Help me dress for my high school prom like mothers do.
Did you think I didn't need you here.
To hold my hand, to dry my tears.
Did you even miss me through the years at all?

Oh I hear the weather's nice in California.
There's sunny skies as far as I can see.
If you ever come back home to Carolina.
I wonder what you'd say to me.

Forgiveness.
Such a simple word.
But its so hard to do.
When you've been hurt.

Oh I hear the weather's nice in California.
And just in case you're wondering about me.
From now on I won't be in Carolina
Your little girl is off...
Your little girl is off...
Your little girl is off to Tennessee

Holy Buckets, I wept. Apparently, I have been weepy lately!

Thank you for sharing this song (I love it) and for joining in on my fun!

I do think this is the start of a great bloggy friendship.

Is your Basil a person or a pet (we pronounce it Bah-zil, like a british person would - because he's welsh...nerd alert!)

Wendy,
After we found each other I found your blogs and started reading them. It was your June 7 th post the one with our picure. I wonder is our song. I have it on my computer so I can hear it whenever I want(also on my ipod)that song braks my heart. Right before I told Nikki about you I had her hear that song then I told her about you. It is us.It is hard to hear but it's an amazing song because anyone else wouldn't have embraced me as you have. You didn't hold on to your hurt and anger.You missed so much but you are not focusing on that just trying to get to know us all.Greatful doesn't begin to explain how I feel.I want you in my life I didn't know how much until we found each other. I think I told you this I didn't allow myself to miss you because I didn't feel like I had the right.I can't believe it's only been since the 1st of June since we have found each other. I feel like we have been in each others life for ever.I'm looking forward to what's going to happen. If it's this good now I can't wait to see what it's like later. I love you mre than YOU know!!!!!!!!MOM
