throwback A sudden reminder of the past

What ever happened to Clearly Canadian? I loved that drink, it was one of my favorites. It was the best sparkling water that I have ever had. I saw it in a store near my home a few years ago, but I can’t seem to find it now. I am starting to think that they don’t make this product anymore. If anyone knows where I can get it, please let me know. Also, any suggestions for alternatives would be great.

I should have never… stopped taking piano lessons

My mom started piano lessons with me when I was about five or six years old. Over the years, I remember taking lessons from three ladies: Ms. Coombs, Ms. Trivett and Ms. Gardner. Each teacher had their own styles and they were great teachers, but I hated taking lessons. My mom finally let me stop when I was about 15.

Hindsight 20/20: I wish that I had never stopped.

Do you know how much easier things would be for me know if I played the piano well? I would hardly ever have to pay people to play for me.

Wow…

throwback A sudden reminder of the past

Me and my childhood bestie, S, loved Big League chew. I believe that grape was the fave. You couldn’t just eat the gum piece by piece, but you had to grab a handful… so you could have as much as you wanted! I love bubble gum so that was big deal to me…LOL

I Just Wanna Say by Israel Houghton: …God has said, Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you. Hebrews 13:5

Not Forgotten by Israel Houghton: … I will not forget you! See, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands… Isaiah 49: 15-16

Friend of God by Israel Houghton: Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends. You are My friends IF you DO whatever I command you. No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things that I heard from My Father I have made known to you. John 15:13-15

How Great is Our God by Chris Tumlin: Praise the LORD, my soul. LORD my God, you are very great; you are clothed with splendor and majesty. 2 The LORD wraps himself in light as with a garment… Psalms 104: 1-2

Worship Wednesday – Songs for Easter Sunday

A-Kay — Wed, 04 Apr 2012 12:53:21 +0000

Lord You Are Awesome by Juanita Bynum: For the LORD your God is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great God, mighty and awesome… Deuteronomy 10:17

I Love You by Shana Wilson: Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.

O the Blood by Gateway Worship featuring Kari Jobe: … the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. 1 John 1:7

Worthy – Michah Stampley flowing into Overcome by Micah Stampley: And they overcame him (Satan) by the blood
of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony … Revelation 12:11

These songs focus on God’s love for us. Because he loved us so much, he sent his Son to die for us and save us. Through that, we have the victory and we overcome every situation and circumstance.

Over the Weekend – Minute to Win It

A-Kay — Mon, 02 Apr 2012 23:30:31 +0000

This past weekend my husband and I met up with some of our couple friends and we played “Minute to Win It”. I have to say that it was one of the most entertaining games nights that I have ever participated in. We laughed and cried laughing and overall just had a great time.

Shout out to T & M for hosting. The games were very organized and the taco bar was a good idea. Also, shouting out to Bro R for making the best looking plate of nachos ever!!!

Here is the status of songs that I am working on…

She Prays – Rough draft recorded, needs a little work and a final mix
Everybody Praise – I have had a hard time finishing this song. I am not sure why, but i’ve been working on it off and on for over a year…so sad. Ad libs needs to be recorded; not sure if i want to add something different. we will see

Instrumentals are done for these songs:

Right Way
I Mean a Lot
Away in a Manger (obviously for a Christmas release

So I have tracks, but I’ve got a lot of work to do. My goal is that “She Prays” will be finished before the Summer begins. I posted a snippet a while ago on Facebook. Here is a snippet in case you missed it – “She Prays“
