Chugging along

I have been crazy busy but then again whats new? My friends and family make comments all the time how i'm constantly running. I guess its true.  My job has also been busy too working on some deadlines to get done before end of year.  Todd is still traveling every week and when he's gone i'm busier with the dogs, house stuff, etc.

So if you're friends with me on FB you saw my post already yesterday about what i am going to type next.  This past weekend , I asked Todd if he remembered watching the Christmas cartoon on The Little Drummer Boy. He definitely remembered and also used to watch as a kid.  I really looked forward to seeing it and wondered why they didnt show it anymore.  We both assume its because of both the religious  content and the violence.  The violence was when the boys parents get killed earlier in the show.   Most of y'all know that Bob Seger is one of my favorite singers ever and he sings his version of Little Drummer Boy that i listen to all the time on my ipod. It was released on an album A Very Special Christmas that featured different artists such as RUN DMC, Stevie Nicks, Tracy Chapman, and more. One of my favorite Christmas albums for sure!  Yesterday while i was at work, i wanted to listen to the song so i went to youtube on my phone to find it. I dont have my Christmas songs on my phone playlist and i dont have my ipod with me at work.   I couldn't believe it when i saw the video being used for the song - it was scenes from Little Drummer Boy cartoon.  One of my favorite singers singing with one of my favorite shows playing in background.  Oh Happy Day!!  Do you remember this cartoon? They actually have a sequel too that was good. I think i may try to find them and order them to have.

I have to tell you a surprise. Todd bought us tickets to fly to NYC this weekend and to see the Radio City Rockettes.  I am so excited!! He's never been to New York and he's wanted to see it around Christmas time.  We've been watching the weather and its not looking good but we will make the best out of it.  I love love love the Rockettes and i've confessed a few times here that i wanted to be one but never was tall enough.  I cant wait to tell yall about our trip. We have a 6am flight this Friday. Fingers crossed for safe travels and health.  

Have a great day yall!!  xoxox
