an addition...

to my top twenty...which truly is not my top twenty because i went over by two...which means there really is a great deal of great music in 2008. anywho, this one is an entire album because i have only listened to it a couple times and as of now, i think the whole thing is wonderful.

it is:

welcome to the welcome wagon- the welcome wagon

just because:)

this lovely lady i know, her name is melinda, she posted this a little while ago and it is just the sweetest thing so i am sharing it:

Angels explained by children-

I only know the names of two angels, Hark and Harold.
-Gregory, 5

Everybody's got it all wrong. Angels don't wear halos anymore. I forget why, but scientists are working on it
-Olive, 9

It's not easy to become an angel! First, you die. Then you go to Heaven, and then there's still the flight training to go through. And then you got to agree to wear those angel clothes.
-Matthew, 9

Angels work for God and watch over kids when God has to go do something else.
-Mitchell, 7

My guardian angel helps me with math, but he's not much good for science.
-Henry, 8

Angels don't eat, but they drink milk from Holy Cows!!!
-Jack, 6

Angels talk all the way while they're flying you up to heaven. The main subject is where you went wrong before you got dead.
-Daniel, 9

When an angel gets mad, he takes a deep breath and counts to ten. And when he lets out his breath, somewhere there's a tornado.
-Reagan, 10

Angels have a lot to do and they keep very busy. If you lose a tooth, an angel comes in through your window and leaves money under your pillow. Then when it gets cold, angels go south for the winter.
-Sara, 6

Angels live in cloud houses made by God and his son, who's a very good carpenter.
-Jared, 8

All angels are girls because they gotta wear dresses and boys didn't go for it.
-Antonio, 9

My angel is my grandma who died last year. She got a big head start on helping me while she was still down here on earth.
-Scott, 9

Some of the angels are in charge of helping heal sick animals and pets. And if they don't make the animals get better, they help the child get over it.
-Vicki, 8

What I don't get about angels is why, when someone is in love, they shoot arrows at them.
-Sarah, 7

thursday morningish...

it is and i am here at work with gentry and when we have nothing to do we have to get a tad creative. so for today, inspired by my friend dave, i have put together a list of my top 20 of 2008. it is ok if you do not agree with me because we are all different which means that our taste in music is different as well. if you are not familiar with the following, i recommend them.

these are in no specific order:

stranger-angus & julia stone

mykonos- fleet foxes

i believe in you- cat power

strawberry swing- coldplay

jungle drum- emiliana torrini

boy with a coin- iron & wine

kim & jessie- m83

quiet houses- fleet foxes

let it be me- ray lamontagne

ara batur- sigur ros

even in the darkness- rue royale

white winter hymnal- fleet foxes

letters- ketch harbour wolves

so long to the ground- ketch harbour wolves

i stand corrected- vampire weekend

hideaway- the weepies

we own the sky- m83

a falling through- ray lamontagne

tell me when you go- rue royale

all of me- angus & julia stone

letters- ketch harbour wolves

little bird- angus & julia stone

*there are actually 22 songs:)

have a fun day and love music.

happy december!

today is the first day of december and i am having a really hard time believing it. this year started off so slow and now it is just flying by and within a few weeks time, we will be in 2009. i think i just recently adjusted to writing 2008 on my papers, checks, etc. and soon i will have to embrace 2009.
sometimes when i get startled, it leaves me feeling stomach sick. this morning my phone rang and it startled me...i feel sick. it is probably a head thing but it happens every time.
anywho, welcome december...winter is on the way!
it is always winter in the library.
