My camera is acting up. This is the only shot I could get today. Curse me for promising a picture a day! But alas, here is dear, sweet Mulan with her most prized possession of the moment, her Sketchers Twinkle Toes Shoes. She coordinates her outfits with the shoes and there is much talk about the exact perfect sock that will go with them - which is, btw, a sport type of sock, not an anklet -- SO not an anklet.

Today I took a singing lesson. Yes, it's come to that. Actually I'm doing it for pleasure, and what a pleasure. I am obsessed with Lorenz Hart at the moment, but still am learning "Blue Skies," by Irving Berlin. I was able to use Irving's name later when Mulan had an assignment that for some reason required her to know first names by certain letters, and "I" was a category. Irving.

I took a singing class in college and that's one of the three songs I did!!! I love that song! and I love that I still know all the words.

Julia, are you watching Glee? If you love to sing, have ever enjoyed a musical, or just like to be happy, try it.

Enjoy your singing lessons. I am jealous!

I tend to break out with Ethel Merman, usually in the shower. Not sure if my housemates appreciate it very much, but its fun :)

Mulan is really pretty. I listened to In a Family Way a couple days ago and thoroughly enjoyed it. Couldn't help but think of you when I had my not-quite-two granddaughter out this morning. We'd already gotten groceries and taken them home. Then walked to the Farmers Market. I couldn't understand why no stores were open...finally realized it was STILL only 9:30! gah. Yeah, I couldn't do it without tv, either ;-)

Yay! I'm glad the lithium batteries work! I wasn't trying to anonymous on purpose. I had some trouble logging in to my OpenID so it gave me that weird long ID. This is a test to see if it is working better today. Hope the camera keeps going strong.
