Twenty Great Summer Songs

Summer makes me want to do a happy dance, especially when the garden is in bloom, the string of party patio lights are on, everything is swept and watered, the pillows are plumped on the glider, there is beer and wine in the cooler and friends are on the way over.

... and summer music of course...

Curvas Peligrosas - Extra Large
Fun, Fun, Fun by the Beach Boys 
Summertime - Janis Joplin
Summertime Blues - Eddie Cochran

Baby Work Out!

I usually wake up a bit on the down side. Today I woke up as a 5. (That's okay, leaning slightly towards unhappy on the mood scale at the left.) Twenty minutes of dancing and I am now  7.5. It never stops amazing me how fast I can bounce up my mood with just a bit of dancing around the house.

My "go to" song this morning was Baby Work Out by Jackie Wilson. There is absolutely no way you can continue sitting at your computer when this song comes on. Go ahead. Try it. Did it get you up and dance?
