Praying For Time And Easter Greetings To All

image
Happy Easter! I hope that you had a wonderful time today. I just now sat down to chill out. I have been cooking and cleaning all day. I made a big dinner. I never plan on it being so much work but it always is. I like to cook but the clean-up takes awhile. Always longer than I anticipate.

I made two big meals and cleaned up after two big meals as well lol. I made a nice Easter Brunch. Eggs, bacon, fruit and home baked wildberry muffins.
 We didn’t even get to coloring eggs until this afternoon. Zoe had a busy social weekend so she finally had time to sit down with me today to color them with me. Silly really because I just turned around and peeled them to make deviled eggs to go with the ham dinner.

Although she wasn’t happy to have her picture taken, she spent a lot of time on the patio coloring eggs with me. She made the muffins for breakfast! Helped with dinner. She offered to help! She is a great helper in the kitchen now. I appreciate this precious kid!
Egg coloring fun!!!
image A friend of mine brought flowers to me this morning! She is a sweet friend that I’m so grateful for. We have fun. She surprised me with these beautiful Stargazer Lillies. 
Ham dinner with every side you can think of it seemed lol… 
No G-Kids today as they all had their own egg hunts and things to do. We had been invited to Britt’s Egg Hunt and festivities yesterday. I went to see daughter Lexie and Alissa yesterday. Only to find that my daughter isn’t doing well again and I fear that she is slipping into a deep hole that will lead to her losing custody of her daughter… Awful. I’m heartbroken but I can see the writing in the wall. This isn’t going well for Alissa. So sad to see! I am realistic to know that I can’t save the world either. I have no idea how this will all play out. I do however know that something needs to be done!
The darkest song that I know but so true to life and living…

The Great Gig In The Sky Wishing For Silent Lucidity

img_1735
It was still here today  but anything but quiet! They SRP, (our local electric provider ) is doing underground construction / running fiber optic cables underground in my neighborhood.here. as I have been trying to record around the noise!  It’s been a challenge to focus here in the house as the jack hammers have been going for days now. I did however work hard on a few things today!  Here is what I uploaded on SoundCloud today!
The Great Gig In The Sky
And… ➡️ Silent Lucidity
*So, I actually got a lot accomplished this week musically! With Could It Be Magic and my original Something More Than Nothing instrumental .

Easter is in the air as well so plenty is going on in and around this holiday!

More bunnies!
I worked on Hide In Your Shell. A very challenging song written by Roger Hodgson. I will never be able to post it on YouTube. If you read my blog you probably understand that Roger Hodgson’s manager has employed social media people to find and take down any music  of Roger’s that isn’t put on the Internet by him or his employees. The only artist that I have encountered that has a problem with my covering him. I play from my little golden room and haven’t earned a dime for anything that I have posted. Awwwww! How I would love to make money! I hardly command even recognition so I’m not sure about the fuss but ok… Anyway, the challenge of the song keeps me wanting to play it! It would be hard enough to play the keyboard but to play it and sing at the same time is crazy complex!
Enjoy the Easter holiday as it is a fun holiday to participate in! Color some eggs, eat some jelly beans…enjoy spring!

Spring Is In The Air And In My Twinkles Hair



The sleepover! What a sweet bunch of girls! I really like these kids! Glad to know these fine 
young gals!
I think a fun time was had by all.  Movies, pizza, lemonade, grapes and plenty of cupcakes lol. 
The weather is so beautiful right now. We sat outside in the backyard on a blanket on the grass today. The cats joined us...


Look at those pretty blue eyes! 


Twinkle Darling

Look at this 12 year old dirt roller! What a mess she is taking dirt baths... She loves to be outside its us in the yard. She gets so happy! 

It was nice to spend some hours thinking and being quiet in the yard.



The view from my blanket... 



Imagine...

Pink Floyd Pink Bunnies And Big Rainbow Dreams




Hip Hop … I’ve been doing my stent as the Easter Bunny. I know a lot of you have as well! You have o get more creative as they (your kids) get older. I only have one left at home and she still looks forward o celebrating Easter. We will color eggs and make deviled eggs with the eggs we color. I’m making a ham with all the trimmings. Mashed potatoes (per Zoe’s request). A few yams, deviled eggs, peach jello with chopped apricots,
asparagus and wild berry muffins! Zoe is making a carrot cake for dessert.
Lots of food …

Bunnies, ducks and chicks are everywhere in my house!
I was thinking about Pink Floyd today and how they completely changed the way that we hear music. What a bunch of genius musicians! Absolutely so talented and brilliant. Amazes me how these guys thought to come up with the music they wrote! Along with my cover of, Us & Them, I cover a small portion of the Great Gig In The Sky. Here it is at the end of this compilation of songs that I could play as a kid. A collection of three songs from the 70’s that I could play by ear… They just kind of came to me, I could just play them one day…?
