Listening to Bluegrass - Life is Good!

Here I am, listening to some GREAT bluegrass music on Sirius on our DISH. Nothing good on TV to night so I'm listening to music and blogging. I'm sure glad to find some good bluegrass on the music channels. There's plenty of everything else, but good bluegrass seems to be lacking.

It was beautiful here today - close to 70 degrees, but when that sun goes down, so does the temperature. Needed my heavy coat when I took Cookie outside a few minutes ago. I guess we're supposed to get some storms and more cold weather the next few days, so that will take care of the weekend. Oh well, that's winter in Oklahoma. If you don't like the weather, just stick around - it'll change.

Mike, my accordion student was here this past Saturday after the convention singing we had down at Smithville. We played through some new songs. At his last lesson, we recorded another song that he could post on U-Tube, so now we have two up there. We're going to try to do one or two each lesson and see how it goes. Last time I looked we'd had 363 views of "Coming Home Polka" so guess it's being enjoyed. When we get our high speed internet connection, I may get a U-Tube account and start posting some stuff as well. But, it's way to slow to upload or download at this point.

We're supposed to have our high speed system by February, but that probably means March. But, I do believe that it's in the works so soon - very soon!! Bill can't wait - he gets all these long videos and stuff from all his e-mail buddies (which he loves) but they sure take a while to come in.

Not much else going on. Two of our kittens have a new home now so we only have Mama Kitty and the little male. The first day or two she spent going round and round the house calling and calling for those two babies. So did the little one. It was so sad. But, we didn't need 4 cats running around here, and knowing Mama Kitty, she'll be back in the family way before too long. She's a wanton hussy!!!! But a good mama. I'll give her that. We have a cozy little cat house on top of the dog house on the front porch, so they are pretty content.

I'm getting a molar pulled this Monday, so am REALLY looking forward to that, but perhaps I'll be finished with my teeth for a while after that.

Till next time,
JB
