My Day in Music Video

I never know where my inspiration for a new post will come from.  And sometimes, the source surprises even me.  Have you ever yourself on Twitter as soon as you wake up?  That was my morning.  An early thunderstorm had me awake and lying in bed.  I grabbed my phone to shut off the alarm and decided to see what was up with my Tweeps (that's Twitter speak for "friends").  I have to give a shout out to @jetts31 for my inspiration for today's post.  You can check out his blog too.

But if you want to know how I FEEL about the rainy morning I'm having so far, you will have to watch this:



If you want to know what I WISH my day looked like, you'll have to watch this:



At least the bee girl could make me breakfast. It's the least she could do for prancing around in that ridiculous outfit. Plus, I will need my energy to chase my eighteen month old around the house. She never gets tired, so I will be left saying like the first line of the chorus of this song:



Sometime after lunch, I'll be singing this song to get my daughter to take a nap:



She will eventually wake up and we'll repeat the first part of the day all over again. And by the end of the day, I will feel like the chorus of this song:
