snow daze

la nina they say

...it has come up from the south

the wind is fierce gusts over 35 mph

we r getting up to 3 inches of snow an hour

warned of lightning and thunder

very strange

white out conditions

the media shouts about the southern tornadoes yesterday
a train came thru and i freaked thinking it was these tornadoes

blessed b this planet we have so abused

her sky's speak 2 us

with storms n weather patterns

like none we've known b4

kd lang

helps us with dreamz of spring

Double Dip Sunday

hanging in the hometown
4 gia and family
sorry we were into just being 2gether not giving u all a guided tour

njoy catie curtis's wise lyrics and beautiful song that is resonating many of my emotions about the past week and all that is unknown

veiw rfam njoying art and science and each others time 2gether

cause r time on this planet should b full of LOVE n LIGHT

even on the greyest of January daze

then n count all 3 chins in the closing piece where
i actually narrate thru the chin cam

n welcome u all 2 MILWAUKEE

a great place on a great lake

that u will probably never pass thru

unless u r heading to a packer game!

GOPACKGO!

w r members 2 both
The Milwaukee Art Museum

look at the site 2 c the fabulous santiago calatrava addition
and

our newest place of wonder and creative energy
Discovery World at Pier Wisconsin

we 2 both places go often but avoid during

the 10 day festival of music

when r lakefront swells with crowds

opening credits song by catie curtis

World Don't Owe Me

from the album

A Crash Course in Roses

The world don't owe me nothing though I always want it to

The world don't owe me happy, the world don't owe me a love like you

The world don't owe me nothing even though I'm on my knees

Not the things I took for granted

Not the things I thought I got for free

But I will lay down my troubles on the ground in front of you

And play, let me play just one more song

That's my rescue

The world don't owe me flowers even though I planted seeds

The world don't owe me sunshine, the world don't owe me what I need

The world don't owe me a reason for when the night's too long

The world don't owe me nothing I don't understand all that's gone wrong

But I will lay down my troubles on the ground in front of you

And play, let me play just one more song

That's my rescue

The world don't owe me a highway, don't owe me a train

The world don't owe me an easy way out

Here it comes again another kind of pain

And I will lay down my troubles on the ground in front of you

And play, let me play just one more song

That's my rescue

My rescue

want 2 hear more? catie radio
