In Which the Divagation Store reaches the 900 posts Milestone! Reflection on Why...

Good morning, my friend, dear reader of this present post! How are you today, this new week? It should be the last one for February, quite soothing that it will end on a Sunday as well, given it started on a Sunday, too! As for me, I did sleep quite a bit yesterday, but I cannot complain of not being a productive day, given I finished reading the biography of Madame de Pompadour, written by Nancy Mitford. Quite a good one, and in fact, I would say is a great one! What a remarkable lady she was, the great patronesse of Rococo, though she sensed a move in France towards a more neoclassical direction, and overall set the sails on the direction of the style of the next era, the one called Louis XVI style, though in truth it was the queen Marie Antoinette who truly set the tone. I like this topic, and I love her majesty. Though the late rococo she preferred was hinted with an antique tint, it was not the more sober neoclassical of the 1790's and the Napoleonic era.

Song of the week! In which we go Upside Down with Diana Ross!

Happy Friday to you dear reader! Hello to you! And good morning! How are you today and how are things going? As usual, I do wish you the best and I hope all is well with you today and this Week! I can't believe this month is getting to a close! I'd say August was not the best month ever BUT it was a very important month for me anyway, lots of stuff happened in it, and though was very painful at times, I guess in the future it will be for the best, but for now I just cry, cry and cry, cause cry is underrated! I should write a bigger post tomorrow to talk about the end of August and beginning of September, the month where my holiday season officially begins! But for now, I also should apologize for not writing a post this Wednesday, please forgive me, but the day was just so so busy I didn't have the time to go further into it, I was at the doctor for most of the afternoon and in the night I was tired and a bit sad, so I couldn't do a good post for me and you guys, I can't say I will try to make it up because I don't like to force posts and stuff, but if I can I will see if I can come up with an  extra post maybe on the Sundays! And talking about coming up, making ways, we should go jump to the song of the week! Upside Down by Diana Ross!!

Upside Down (Youtube)


This disco pop upbeat song is an ideal one to celebrate Friday and good moments! Quite a straightforward one, just the way I prefer it as well! I listened to the whole album where this song came though, unfortunately so far this was the only song that made me really wanna dance, the others were pretty forgettable, BUT I might change my mind as I plan on revisiting this album soon! Diana Ross is also an artist I'd like to explore more as time goes by, she seems like an amazing one! Well, this is it for song of the week, this one is definitely one to recommend, hope you guys enjoy it, and for today this is it, thank you so much for being here, dear reader, wish you the best and see you next time!
