Day 4745: Mood music

Today’s blog title is “mood music” because

  • My son Aaron, my husband Michael, and I spend our evenings together sharing favorite music with each other,
  • We saw the movie Marty Supreme yesterday and Michael’s only criticism of it was that he thought the music didn’t fit, and
  • I asked this question on Twitter last night:

.

Last night Michael shared this song:

I shared this song:

And Aaron shared this song:

Aaron said that I should listen to that Moondog album, because some of those songs remind him of the songs I’ve written, which put me in a very good mood.

Here are the rest of my images for this mood music post:

Here’s the music I hear when I think about Tick Tock Day:

Thanks to all who are here for this mood music post, including YOU!

Day 1393: In the driver’s seat

I have gotten the go-ahead from my cardiologists to drive again, now that I have recovered sufficiently from my open heart surgery of September 21.

Now that I’m back in the driver’s seat, I have many places to go today, including:

  1. Cardiac rehab at a nearby hospital, where I’ll sit and walk on different types of exercise equipment with my usual drive,
  2. My dentist’s office, for a 3-month teeth cleaning (driven by  my real risk of endocarditis),
  3. A Boston hospital, to surprise people who are used to being in the driver’s seat,
  4. A real estate property in a nearby town within easy driving distance, where perhaps I’ll soon be driving and parking my car.

Here‘s one of my favorite in-the-driver’s-seat tunes, performed by the amazing and driving Bonnie Raitt:

 

I love my life with me and the boys — my boyfriend Michael, my son Aaron, and our kitties Oscar and Harley.

Here are some photos I was able to take yesterday because I was in the driver’s seat:

When I see a product like Chinese Szechuan Chicken-flavored potato chips, I wonder who’s in the driver’s seat over at Lay’s.

What helps you feel like you’re in the driver’s seat?

When I’m in the driver’s seat, gratitude is often sitting in the passenger’s seat beside me, so here’s a driving feeling I want to express to all those who helped me create today’s post and to you — of course! — no matter what seat you’re in right now:
