Thanks for joining Monday’s Music Moves Me on Sundays, my friends! Tomorrow is National Boss/Employee Exchange Day. What’s this you’re wondering, right? Basically, it gives you and your boss an opportunity to do the other person’s job for the day. The role playing probably sheds new perspective on the difficulties each person faces. The grass isn’t always greener on the other side. I thought it would be interesting if not challenging to put together a playlist of songs lyrics/titles that refers to filling another’s person’s shoes in life, the workplace, … Be dead-on or loose as you need to come up with some tunes for the 4M dance party. Whatever you do, just have fun!

Being a SAHW, I don’t have a boss because let’s face it the wife is the boss! I sure do appreciate all that DH has done over the years for his family and continues to do. What a dad does for his kids is often underappreciated until the kids have kids of their own. Wives sometimes don’t get what their husbands deal with to keep it together. The turning point for me came when DH worked out of state for several months. It sure put things into perspective fast. Today, I’m dedicating this post to my Hard Workin’ Man with this 10-song playlist.

Hard Workin’ Man playlist: 1. Walking In My Shoes ~Depeche Mode 2. Hard Workin’ Man ~Brooks & Dunn 3. Blue Collar Man ~Styx 4. Working Man’s Ph.D. ~Aaron Tippin 5. Workin’ Man Blues ~Merle Haggard 6. Working Man ~Rush 7. Workin’ For A Livin’ ~Huey Lewis and the News 8. Workin’ Day and Night ~Michael Jackson 9. Workin’ Man ~Nitty Gritty Dirt Band 10. God Bless Saturday ~Kid Rock

My song set mostly includes song titles with “workin’ man”. The first track, although it’s referring to someone’s spiritual struggles, the lyrics walking in my shoes is a phrase we’ve all used and none of us know just how hard it is until we try to fill the shoes of another. I certainly know DH’s job as the bread winner and head of the house is a tough one. One thing I always looked forward to over the years is the weekend to spend with him and my last tune selected seemed the perfect choice for wrapping up my playlist.

This month’s honorary co-hostess is little ole ME

This is a mewsic linky party. Every other week we have a suggested mewsic theme (see side menu) to build your song set around and all participants share YouTube or Vimeo videos for our mewsic enthusiasts. Failure to meet this basic guideline puts your URL in danger of being removed or labeled – NO MUSIC.

That’s a wrap for now. For my fellow music enthusiasts, I hope you’ll join me for my second edition of Top Ten Tuesdays. Stay safe, be well, and have a boogietastic week, my friends! XX, Cathy

It’s the last Monday in March and soon another month will come to an end. Where did the days go? Anyhow… Welcome to Monday’s Mewsic Moves Me! Before I forget, let me mention that I have appointments today and my time on the dance floor is limited but if I can’t make it by then don’t worry I’ll hop over to your place bright early tomorrow.

This month’s honorary co-hostess, Marie from Athena Cat Goddess Wise Kitty did a swell job, don’t you think? Thanks for playing along this month, girl! I hope you’ll decide to be in the spotlight again. Marie’s final theme is in honor of ‘Take a Walk In The Park Day’ and has requested SONGS ABOUT WALKING.

My song picks have no particular rhythm or reason other than the tunes fancied my ear the instant I heard them. Tracks on my Walki(ing) Theme Songs playlist include:

Walk – Don’t Run ~ The Ventures
Walking on Broken Glass ~ Annie Lennox
These Boots Are Made For Walkin’ ~ Nancy Sinatra
Walks Like A Woman ~Baton Rouge
Walking In My Shoes ~ Depeche Mode
A Walk In the Rain ~ Yanni
Walks Like A Lady ~ Journey
Walk This Way ~ Aerosmith
You’ll Never Walk Alone ~ Gerry & The Pacemakers
Walk Away ~ Donna Summer

DISCLOSURE…this is a mewsic linky party, which means all participates are sharing songs that one can listen to from YouTube or Vimeo and a not a post about mewsic or mewsicians. Failure to meet this basic guideline puts your URL in danger of being removed or labeled – NO MUSIC.

Yesterday, I learned my niece may have the Coronavirus and is waiting on the results. She’s a mom of two and wife. Please keep her in prayer, as well as her family. I know this is all scary for everyone but I’m trusting God for His healing touch to make her well. That’s a wrap for now. Join me tomorrow for some randomness and giggles with Tickle Me Tuesdays. Have a boogietastic week!

XX, Cathy
