Every Morning is Easter Morning...

...from now on!
Ev'ry day's resurrection day, the past is over and gone!

Good-bye guilt, good-bye fear, good riddance! Hello, Lord, Hello, sun!
I am one of the Easter People! My new life has begun!

Ev'ry morning is Easter morning from now on!
Ev'ry day's resurrection day, the past is over and gone!

Daily news is so bad it seems the Good News seldom gets heard.
Get it straight from the Easter People! God's in charge spread the word!

Ev'ry morning is Easter morning from now on!
Ev'ry day's resurrection day, the past is over and gone!

Yesterday I was bored and lonely; But today look and see!
I belong to the Easter People! Life's exciting to me!

This SO takes me back to when I was a kid in church. That was before churches had contemporary music and this song came from a camp songbook. We felt so rockin' by singng this folk-music song :-)

There's another one buried down deep somewhere in the recesses of my mind...I'll find it one day :-)

Happiness is...

not passing out during the 400 calorie workout on your treadmill! :-)

Now...let's hope that Happiness continues as I try to start my computer that mysteriously shut off.

Daily Plan

I have a plan...(not as poetic as *dream* I know)...a plan to sit on my back deck and read a book not because I have to but because I can. I have a plan...a plan to finish Angels and Demons before the May 15th release of the movie not because I have to but because I think it makes me look more intellectual. I have a plan...a plan to while away my free afternoons doing whatever the heck I want to not because I have to but because I have zero meetings anymore! I have a plan...a plan to ease into the evening bathed in the smooth light of my new torch candle not because I have to but because manufacturers have devised a way to set the mood AND ward off mosquitoes.

Here's the before and after on my way to my plan...



Chairs waiting to be put together...thanks Honey!




My new candle...just waiting for me :-)

Daily Flashback

Back in the day Sarah and I used to watch this VHS videotape that she had. I'm sure her parents picked it up somewhere but I have no idea where. It was called "Hi Tops" and it was a Christian themed musical. It had something to do with some angels being sent to a high school to pose as students...learning and teaching along the way. It was so hokey it was awesome! I don't even want to know how many times we watched and re-watched that tape. But suffice it to say that with my love of Jesus and my obsession with musicals I borrowed that tape a lot...and had the lyrics memorized in no time! I even had SOME dialog memorized...I'm proud/chagrined to admit :-)

So...a year ago or so I looked for the video online and found a reference to it but learned it was no longer in print. So, I looked for it today and there on Christianbook.com...wait for it...the remastered DVD version of my Holy Grail. Do you even have to ask...I ordered it on the spot...but I did restrain myself from opting for Priority Mail. So, it should be here in week or two. I can't wait to see if I remember all the words still. Ooohhh...and I can't wait to bring it down to Sarah's house and watch it with her again...sometime :-)
