In Which I recall vivid but long gone past days

Good morning, my friend, reader of this present post! How are you this last day of the business week? As for me, I am okay. Happy it is almost the weekend, and next week I have some doctor appointments booked, it promises being productive, then, or at least have some works done as for example with my ears and eyesight. How is the weather? My area has the weather trending towards rain, grey mornings, which are ones I appreciate, so no issue there, and just a temperance of the heat, summer 2026 is almost a bad memory at this point. I went on a shopping spree the past few days, which is not exactly the most responsible thing, but it is what it is. The most indulgent of the purchases was a pair of pajamas, that I was in spiritual need of. They are a number too big, but it was what was offered by the store when I went to the website, given most of the models were sold off.

Song of the week! In which we pay homage to disco music and Donna Summer!

Hello everyone and happy Friday!! So happy to be here today writing this post for you and for me! How are you? As usual, I wish you the best! The days are still hot and with a very bright sun, it's like the summer is here earlier in 2018, what's going on??? As you know, as much as I love blue skies, I prefer the rain, ANYWAY, but the weather fits well the song I'm bringing today!! We're going to go back in time "just" a little bit for the disco days of the disco queen herself, DONNA SUMMER! And DON'T YOU FEEL THE LOVE IN THE AIR?



This was the first song I heard of her, it came out of nowhere on Spotify last year, and I love it so much! It's so hypnotizing and exuberant! But for some time it was the only song of her I knew, until her name popped into my head for some reason this month, and now I've been listening to her so much, and her songs are truly something else! I still don't know much about this fantastic artist, but I definitely have to keep searching for her and keep discovering her wonderful songs, just like this one! It has almost ten minutes and it holds you for this whole almost ten! And you even ask for more when it's over! I'm such a musical grandpa, I think I tend to love disco music in general, it's truly a rhythm in ebullition!! And if you don't have Spotify, do not worry! I have the link for Youtube as well:


I really encourage you to listen to it, I think it's worth it! Donna Summer is what we have for today, this nice Friday! Thank you so much for being here, I appreciate you a lot! See you next time!
