In Which the Blog reach 950 posts! A lovely Holiday Season approaches!

Good morning, my dear friend, and I wish you a happy Wednesday! How are you, this fine hour? As for me, I am okay, just waking up, really. The weather here is one of quiet transition, to spring. I can still use thicker blankets, but the days are longer, and the sun is more bright. Not exactly a good thing, I don't like summer, that is approaching. The only saving grace is to have Christmas season also upon us, the season of 2026! And all the memories of happy summer vacations, with the christmas trees and the great deal of lovely santas around it. Grandma used to go all in for the decor. How I miss it... I pray I can emulate it, when I can. Today, grandma is 82 years old, she is aging, as it rarely can be helped.

Song of the week! In which we go on an adventure With the Pharao's Dance

Hello everyone, happy Friday to you and good Afternoon, how are you today and how are things going? As usual, I wish you the best and hope things are doing well! How is the weather where you are? Here it is rainy and cloudy, a weather I very much enjoy, the weather is fresh, how lovely! I marked some doctor appointment for me as well, so I can get my sleep on check, I always like taking care of my health, on the ways I can do, I mean, it is quite lovely to do so! I should do some drawings as well, but today I mostly wanted to play Civ VI and read my book! Let us see how it goes indeed! For now, so far so good, and today is song of the week as well, and I have a very special piece to share with you guys, a true adventure by Miles Davis, the Pharao's Dance! And just as I typed this post it started raining, I'm so happy, rain is so full of life, the smell is great as well, almost makes me go take a shower in it!



Released in 1970, with the album Bitches Brew, This huge song is a carnival for the senses, opening our ears to an incredible experience of softness and also intensity hard to get anywhere else, this song doesnt feel 20 minutes long either, it definitely flow by fast but also gently, on this very interesting kind of jazz. I found amazing how Jazz is diversified, having so many interpretations of it, this is one of the most creative, and I definitely recommend to you guys! And this is it for today, just another song for you guys to maybe listen and enjoy! Wish you the best and you are the best! See you next time!
