Christmas Music
Comments (4)I have the music box tapes also I got them from a small gift shoppe called the MOle Hole no longer in biz. It was nice as a background while you are opening gifts especially if you are videotaping because there are no words to confuse you. My oldest boy, now a Pastor and father of three loves all the Burl Ives songs,who doesnt. Another one special to us that really got the kids hoppin called A Carribean Christmas. ,Mostly Reggae,we loved it so! Did you google the bells? Surely it is out there....See MoreAny Suggestions For "After Christmas" Music
Comments (5)I second Windham Hill. You might try looking for regular albums of artists you enjoy listening to at Christmas. For example, I adore my Nat King Cole Christmas album and first got introduced to Perry Como via his Christmas album. Both artists have an extensive repertoire outside of their Christmas music. But with every artist, you're always going to get a mix of stuff you like and stuff you don't like. Back in the day I used to make "mix tapes" to listen to for that reason. I know I could do the same with digital downloads these days, but I no longer have the discretionary time that I once had, lol! Nor the time and money to buy and learn the new technology. BF and I enjoy Spotify and Pandora, which you can somewhat customize and tailor to your taste. You also get some of that same niche type playlist with satellite radio stuff but I don't have that either, just have listened to some channels on my dad's car radio....See MoreChristmas music rant.
Comments (53)Though I've liked the "Baby, it's cold outside" song for many years ... I've long felt somewhat uncomfortable about the prolonged persistence of the guy ... who doesn't seem to understand a(n even half-hearted) "No". Isn't "No" ... supposed to mean ... "No"? It seems to me that, as a youth, I was supposed to respect a young woman enough that I wouldn't want to have her wake the next day to be smitten with deep regret ... or much worse. I'm sitting here thinking that that may be related to the lifestyle that many of us choose, that I'm to love my neighbour as myself ... and not abuse her/him. Ever. By the way ... did any of those of you who turned the radio/TV station off ... ... contact them to tell them that you'd done so? ... (and the advertisers)? ole joyfuelled...See MoreChristmas music
Comments (30)OR I do have cables I can hook on the hard drive and transfer anything to a large stick drive I want to keep. my goodness shades! how do you do that? I got a new computer and now have to get my stuff off of this old one and onto the new one... do you know how to get things like 'favorites' list and the list of frequent sites used off of one? I hate to lose all of that and have to start over! there's a program called 'PC mover' but it really doesn't get great reviews! also, I'm looking for a tablet (or maybe even a laptop if cheap enough) for a friend who is also disabled. she is 60 and in recent yrs spent several months in a coma and just recently lost part of a lung. she is living with her mom (who is 88) now. she moved home yrs back to care for her dad when he was dying - it was after he died that she collapsed and went into a coma. I want something with big enough screen for failing eyesight (at our age) and good sound for our failing hearing... a keyboard (that clicks) or at least port to take one for typing emails. she'd most likely will only use for emails, skyping with her kids/gkids (and friends - me) and surfing on web. her kids/gkids are in another state. she has little (very little) money and I think it difficult to keep $s on her cell phone to talk much to kids/gkids/me. I don't like to pry too much about it. I have asked some on the phone and told her I'd be much more than happy to send her money to help with phone so we could talk more (and even for her to talk to her kids/gkids). I'm blest that long distance is no charge on my LL. She is concerned that if her mom dies the house will be sold and she'll have no where to live. She doesn't like either sister enough to live with...lol! i sure wouldn't want to live with either of my sisters! and doesn't want to go back to home state because it's too cold there (she's been in a bit warmer area for a number of yrs now). I will invite her to come live here - but not sure she will because it is so much farther away from her kids / gkids. they're just in the northern part of the state to the east of her now. anyway, any recommendations on what tablet to get her? I like the amazon fire hd 10 but it is so expensive with 32 gb. people tell me that with only 16 gb it isn't very useful. I do like that it has Alexa. that would be very handy for her! I'd like alexa myself. maybe i'll get me an echo dot down the road a bit. I'm not sure how good of a speaker the dot is tho. or even how anything connects to it. I got rid of my big 'ol wooden encased speakers when I moved into here. qvc had the tall echo on sale a few weeks back for about 100.00. great price but that's the first I'd heard of such a thing and I watched it just to learn about it....See MoreOlychick
