Well, you've read the notes, the notes were "C" for CONSISTENT, and now it is time for you to post until the consistent cows come home.

And to my Jewish friends, a very Happy Hanukkah!

Around 1999, I was asked by the Milken Archive to do some arrangements for a series of recordings they planned to make.  This is the Hanukkah song "Likhtelekh," by Leo Low and Morris Rosebfeld, sung in Yiddish.

Well, my payback for successfully assembling the cat tree was The. Worst. Night. Ever. 

Both my legs throbbed all night long and no pain killer did a thing to stop it.  All the movement - climbing on and off the floor, toting and dragging - to get one cat tree to the basement and the other assembled really did me in.  The cats are happy and I do not begrudge one minute of the work.  I've got to start asking friends for help.

Two favorite Christmas songs?  Like a show tune, it depends on the day and my mood, but for now:
Mary's Boy Child
Home for the Holidays

At the moment the thought of walking to the bank to get cash for my super's holiday gift is about as welcome as a hemorrhoidectomy with no anesthesia, but I must do it today or tomorrow.

Here’s one of my favorite carols, a piece of Bach given Allelulias and a forceful set of lyrics. We sang this as our processional for the school Christmas program when I was in second grade. It stayed with me.

Ralph Vaughan Williams’ Forest Green turns o Little Town of Bethlehem into a carol that reduces me to tears most every time I hear it. That descant is sublime.

DR GEORGE check your settings - when I scan a document, I have the option of scanning it TO a PDF file.....that would save you a step.

And for Hanukkah, there’s Phyllis Newman chanting The Blessing of the Candle, so simple and haunting.

I have a topic for the next two days.  What is your favorite Christmas song(s)?
Yesterday TCB said
Now there are rules.  It can be a classic carol, a holiday classic, or a comic song for the season.  BUT, you are limited to only two choices.  No copying the list of “Billboard’s Hot 100 Christmas Tunes” or the listing from the back of one of your holiday CDs.  Two songs only.  So take your time.  You have tomorrow and Tuesday to post your favorites!

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!



I say TWO?!

I managed to take two out of focus photos of the new cat tree from my cell phone and our DR Charles Smith has downloaded them for me.  Annabelle is at the bottom, and Thatch is in his little house.  I think he's appropriating that for himself.
