Purrs and hisses, Kittens & Dawgs! I hope y’all had a furrrtastic Labor Day weekend.  I’m not gonna kid you life on this end is a bit strained.  Some things came down at the end of last week which left this gal chasing her tail plus we’re trying to get things figured out about retrieving stuff from my late in-laws’ place before the deadline.  That all being said, I want to apologize now for my late return visits.

Okay, that was my random rant now to get on with the meat of today’s share. Last week, my blog bud, Mary from Cactus Haiku nominated me to take the 3-Day Lyrical Challenge and I happily accepted.  You know me and mewsic, right? 😉  Luckily, the rules are simple enough for me to follow which is purrrfect fit for me these days.

1 Thank the person who nominated you.
2 Share one of your favorite song/lyrics one at a time for three days.
3 Nominate three other bloggers each day.

Before I begin, let me say a special thanks to Mary.  I’m delighted you thought of me and passed the challenge this way.  It’s absolutely no trouble at all just so you’ll know.  😉

This is going to be difficult to narrow my choices to just a single song but I’ll refrain and play nicely.  *must fight the temptation*  Yeah, you know the rule-breaker than I am!

I’m what you call a girlie-girl. I love all things that make me feel cozy inside from scents to touch and from sight to sound.  Some of my fondest memories are tied up in feelings instead of actual events.  My mind instantly fell on my first song choice because of the lyrics which says me in so many ways and perhaps you can relate to the words, too.

I can’t recall when I watched The Sound of Mewsic for the first time but we routinely watched it when our kids were small.  This is perhaps one of my favorite mewsicals.  I wanted to see the Von Trapp’s family in Vermont in 1989 but our itinerary was too full to accommodate the side trip.  Anywho, my favorite song from this mooovie is  “My Favorite Things” by Richard Rodgers.

Note: I originally posted the lyrics but after getting a comment from the author of Stunning Keisha, a lovely bloggy friend, gave me pawse on this matter and so I decided to replace the lyric contents with a link to an off-site. Thanks for watching my back, my dear! 😘

What is your favorite song from The Sound of Mewsic?

The hardest part is to figure out who to send this challenge.  Let me put my thinking cap on.

My first batch of nominees goes to like-minded bloggers. No not those with little brains but those who love mewsic as much as I do!

Michele at Angels Bark, Tom from  Shady’s Place, & Kim from The ReInvented Life!

A special word to my nominees, please don’t feel obligated to participate if you can’t do or don’t want to for any reason.  It won’t bother me in the least.
