It’s the first day back to the routine. The kids are back in school and I have a few hours to myself. The morning went well and nobody was late. There is a lot to write about. I have several thoughts about music. There’s the interchange I had with my youngest which I found amusing….
“You Know My Name (Look Up The Number)” For me, this is one of those songs that typifies what a B-side is. It’s definitely not something you would necessarily find on an album (well, the White Album, yeah). This was the flip side to the “Let It Be” single, the penultimate 45 the band would…
“Please Mister Postman” This is a cover of The Marveletts 1961 hit – not The Supremes or The Shirelles as many think. It was released as the B-side to another cover, “Roll Over Beethoven” and while it charted in America, it didn’t hit very high and wasn’t even a single in Britain. According to BeatleSongs it…
“Baby You’re A Rich Man” Released as a B-side to “All You Need Is Love” this song was, according to BeatleSongs written half and half by Paul and John. Tell Me Why claims the song is “unsettling in how lacking in purpose it all sounds.” This was one of my favorite Beatles songs growing…
This morning we went to get an ultrasound of our upcoming child. We had a friend come over and watch the kids and she made them pancakes for breakfast (our appointment was downtown at 8:30 in the morning). We asked the older kids if they wanted to go, but they wanted to stay and have…

Woke up this morning with thoughts about the impending task ahead and created this.
Last week it was my 3rd and 4th graders performing for their winter concert. This week it was my preschooler and Kindergartener. Only the preschooler was sick. He stayed home Monday with a small cough that escalated on Tuesday to something that couldn’t be shrugged off so I took him to the pediatrician. They gave…
I have an extra copy of Despicable Me 2 on Blu-ray to give away. Just leave a comment on this post and I’ll select a winner and send it out by December 26. North America residents age 17 and older are eligible. So yeah, this is open until December 26 when I’ll close the comments…
Nope. No pictures of Thanksgiving. Remember when I posted about Déla’s gymnastics championship? This week the next quarter of gymnastics started up and the final standings were posted. Her team tied for first, but for some reason was awarded second place. Note some of those great team names. Also this week at gymnastics Xavier was…
