The may playlist is only 8 days late. The way my productivity has been as of late I think this is EXCELLENT. This little playlist includes some of my newest favorites.
Enjoy!
Chick Tunes Tuesday – May Playlist

Let’s Talk About Sex Over a Bowl of Fruity Pebbles
Scene: Kitchen. Oldest son is having breakfast before school. Mother, no coffee and barely awake. Son eating sugar coma awful cereal and talking with his mouth full, because the cotillion classes were obviously a waste of money.
Middle School Son: “Did Dad give you some love last night?”
Mother: *dumbstruck, followed by nausea and then silently screaming SHIT SHIT SHIT in my head*
Middle School Son: “Oh, wait, Oh I think I know what that means.”
Mother: “Dude, you just asked me if Dad and I got it on last night, like you know, sex.”
Middle School Son: “OH..NO..OH Sorry, I meant like a hug since you had a hard day.”
This my friends is called a teachable moment. A moment when I went over all the terms used for sex with my 14 year old son. It was the quickest I have ever seen him get dressed and out the door for school in all of his many years. Tomorrow we plan on tackling STD’s. My guess is he’ll be ready for school and at the bus stop by 6am.
End Scene.

Chick Tunes: Finding a Quiet Place
Chick Tunes should happen on Tuesdays, but my day was lost to all the noise. I created this new playlist yesterday. It was grey and cold here in Connecticut and I think the music reflects my mood and melancholy.
I jumped on my computer this morning after the morning rush. You all know the morning: one kid to band practice, one barely making the bus and one convincing me he needs to stay home due to a man cold. We all feel the rush and the noise every day. When I played this music this morning I didn’t hear the melancholy, just the calm. Hopefully this playlist will help you find the quiet. As my friend Patti said last week, take a minute and Just Breathe.
Enjoy!
Social Media Monday: Pinterest Love
I have a deep love for Pinterest. A deep love and a slight twinge of feelings of inadequacy, if I am being honest. I mean think about it – Perfect Hair, Funny Banter, Work Out Regimes and Beautifully Decorated Houses. It’s not possible to actually do ALL that stuff, am I right? So instead of overwhelming myself, and others, I am going to pick a few gems from my Pin Boards to share with all of you.
The Funny
I love a good laugh, these little ditties made me happy.
