Wishes Come True

A gray day has dawned

much to my delight.

Candles lit,

Debussy's tunes,

follow me thru 'til night.

 

 

 

You Can't Always Get What You Want

Memories.  Isn't it interesting that the same one can bring about totally opposite emotions in different people?  I was having lunch with my eldest daughter Alex this afternoon after we finished our work out.  We were chatting quite amiably when one of my favorite songs came on.   "I love this song"! I exclaimed as I began singing along.  "I hate this song" she replied.  "Don't you remember how I would sing this to you when you were little?"  "Yes I do.  That's why I hate it.  It's like nails on a chalkboard to me!" 

My, my, my.  Isn't life funny?  I wonder how the other two feel about "the song"?  It doesn't matter though.  It is still one of my favorites AND one of my favorite memories.  Me and the Stones serenading my children.

"You can't always get what you want.  You can't always get what you want.  You can't always get what you want......But if you try sometimes, you just might find......you get what you neeeed!"  Oh Yeah!

The Stones and a warm October afternoon.  The top's down on my car.  And I'm singing along as loud as I can.  It doesn't get any better than that!
