i have the feeling that i might be the worst blogger ever. i just can't seem to keep up with posting. it's not that i don't have anything interesting to say or show you, but it just seems to take so much time to actually sit down, photoshop a pretty picture to post, write a witty story, or even notify you about fun events. i could blame it on the sunshine, and my desire to be outside during the summer, but the truth is i have never been very good at this. part of my problem is that my thoughts are constantly overlapping. i am a daydreamer by nature, and even as i sit here typing i am thinking about the way that the sand will feel in my toes at the end of the week when i go camping at the beach. maybe i need medication to help me focus....or maybe i just need to pinch myself once in a while to get me out of the clouds.
anyway, as a daydreamer i tend to love romantic old movies & musicals, especially gone with the wind, singing in the rain, the sound of music, holiday inn, mary poppins, wuthering heights, jane eyre, the wizard of oz, and so many more. i recently came across this video....a modern combo of some of my favorite things, singing and dancing just like an old movie.
as noted two sentences ago, i love the sound of music, so when i saw this video it really made me want to post some other clips from the movie. apparently this is a copyright infringement, so i will settle with some of my favorite lyrics & you can sing along on your own :)
Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things
Cream colored ponies and crisp apple strudels
Door bells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
These are a few of my favorite things
Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes
Silver white winters that melt into Springs
These are a few of my favorite things
When the dog bites
When the bee stings
When I'm feeling sad
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don't feel so bad.
