Friday Sillies

We’re #HomeFree the weekend begins now with music, humor, fillins, and a sky view

January 8, 2021 /

The first week of 2021 has evaporated already.  Let’s take a peek at how my first Battle of the Bands went down. If you’ve followed the tally, it will come to you as no shock that this was a blowout.  Honestly, I couldn’t have imagined when I put the Gothard Sisters and Home Free together in this showdown that one would run away with the showdown like they did.  I held onto hope for things to change. Taking the victory by a landslide (12 to 2) is….Home Free.

Turn up your volume to listen to What We Need Is Love by Home Free!

 

Mark your calendar for BoTB 2021 Round 2 on January 15th. That’s next week, folks!

#FridaySillies

Ellen at 15andMeowing and Lorraine at Four-Legged Furballs share each Thursday four blank statements for us to copy and paste to create an entry for their Friday Friendly Fill-ins. Rounding things out this is how I filled in the blanks.

1. I hope DH never changes. Unless, he gets better.  I mean how do you improve on perfection but if you can then that’s always welcomed.
 
2. The luckiest I have ever been was not breaking any teeth in that horrible fall a few years ago. Luck didn’t have anything to do with it. God gave charge to my angels to soften my fall. It didn’t feel soft but the damage could’ve been a lot worse.
 
3. I never thought I would find the right fill-in for this blank statement, but I did.  Alright that was a bit of cheat on my answer and it reminds me of those clever responses given by school kids, like this one….
 
 
4. I’m waiting for God to see what’s next on everything going on in my life and around the world. Some days it’s hard to not get discouraged and it takes everything I have to push the darkness away. I might not like the direction things are going but I’m not going to allow Satan to steal my joy. That would be a double win for the evil one. When I’m happy he doesn’t like it and that’s a win for me!

Before I leave, I want to give you the heads up that I deleted my Twitter account last night.  I appreciate your the many followers I picked up over the years but it’s time to step away from that platform.  In case you’re wondering, I’m still on Facebook but not very active.   

That’s it for now.  Join me on the dance floor with Monday’s Mewsic Moves Me for ‘your choice song picks‘ week. I’m gonna leave you with one more song by the champs, Home Free, “Diamond Dreams”.  Have a funtastic Friday, stay safe and be well, dear friends! X💋X💋, Cathy

    Hi, Cathy!

    I hope you and DH are having a nice weekend, dear friend! I returned to blogging today, sooner than expected. For two days following Wednesday’s ugly spectacle at the U.S. Capitol, I was in a dark place, unable to even express myself in writing. While my mood has not yet bounced back to 100%, I am sure your Friday Sillies will help improve it and enable me to smile again.

    In your band battle, I’m sorry I didn’t help even the score by voting for the Gothard Sisters. I like them, but I liked the Home Free men a little more. It was a tougher decision than the final tally of your contest might imply. Thanks for posting another song by Home Free. “What We Need Is Love’ is a timely message song that everyone should take to heart. It reminds me of two similar songs “All You Need Is Love” and “What The World Needs Now Is Love.” I also enjoyed their other song “Diamond Dreams.”

    I enjoyed reading your Friday Friendly Fill-ins. I remember you taking a tumble a few years back and I’m very thankful you weren’t badly injured. I laughed at the school kid’s answer to the math question about Bob eating 29 candy bars. I know I could eat 29 of the candy treats you make for lucky DH, and I mean in a single sitting. 🙂 That Garfield cartoon tells the truth about the temperament of cats. We care for a stray black cat. Like a dog, he is always butting his head into my hand, signaling me that he wants me to scratch and pet him. However, if I rub him the wrong way or if he gets bored, he will lurch around and act like he’s going to bite me. 🙂

    Thank you for the mewsic and Sillies and enjoy the rest of your weekend, dear friend Cathy!

      Tom,

      Our country is a mess. It’s hard to not feel like you’re being dragged under a tow struggling to catch your breath, fighting the current to survive. Despite turmoil or peace life goes on and we have to give our best no matter what’s going on around us. We have to make our own happiness when things fall down around us or we’ll just be swallowed up by the darkness. I hope you find peace.

      I’m happy that you managed to stop by to learn how my BoTB went and to get a dose of humor. I’ll be over to see you soon. Thanks, dear friend!

      Birgit,

      The Disney on Ice is by Scott Hillburn. I always laugh when I see something witty a kid scribbles in for an answer. I always think, “Why wasn’t I that clever?” lol

    Thank you for participating in the fill-ins, great answers, especially #1, so sweet. I am glad your fall wasn’t as bad as it could have been.
    The Disney on Ice is funny and so is your # 3 answer. Have a nice weekend. XO

      Ellen,

      I still shutter when I think about that fall. It was terrifying to see my face heading straight for the steps. God’s angels helped to shift me so the impact wasn’t so terrible. God is so good!

      There are a lot of bands that I do not know, so don’t be hard on yourself. I’m glad you enjoyed them and I appreciate your visit. Have a good day!

    Not surprised they won the battle of the bands. They deserved the win.

    Love your fill-ins and especially #4. We are on the same page as usual.

    I love Garfield. Cats are so…so snarky.

    The lake is beautiful. Wow.

    Thank you for joining the Feline Friday Blog Hop.

    Have a purrfect Feline Friday and weekend. Love and hugs, Cathy. ♥
