Back in the saddle again - I think

It seems like every time I think I'm ready to ride again, more stuff comes up and I end up on an unintentional hiatus for a while. That's what happened these past few weeks, and is bound to happen again. But at the moment? I'm just happy to have a few free minutes to type a few paragraphs out, share some music, and a sneak peek of something else that I'm really, REALLY excited about. Like....SO excited! You don't even know. But you will Thursday, if you come back for my #ThriftScoreThursday post.

In the meantime, it's #MusicMonday!

Today I'll be sharing the latest release from Breaking Benjamin, their first since 2009, "Failure". Breaking Benjamin will be performing at this year's Beale Street Music Festival, and I plan on attending that night with one of my longtime friends. I can not wait! I haven't lived near Memphis in nearly 15 years, and the last BSMF I attended was way back in 2000. It's time to go back! I really hate that I can't go for the entire fest, but am happy to be able to see (in addition to Breaking Benjamin) Lenny Kravitz, The Flaming Lips, Slash, Spin Doctors, Pixies, Ryan Adams, Five Finger Death Punch and Awolnation.

It appears that this week's Monday's Music Moves Me theme is "Songs about cars or mentions a particular type of car and/or truck”. Here is Everclear with "Volvo Driving Soccer Mom":

And...I promised a sneak peek at this coming week's Thrift Score Thursday, so here it is:

I seriously can't wait to share the rest of it Thursday! I haven't been THIS excited about a thrift score since I purchased my vintage industrial desk about eight years ago. And believe me, I get excited over all of my thrift scores!

For more Music Monday, head to X-Mas Dolly to participate or just hop around.

Let's all endeavor to have a great week!

  1. Hi Kim,
    I really like 'Failure'...just didn't know who sang it! 'Volvo Driving Soccer Mom' is a fun song and video. Okay I can't tell what that is in your 'Thrift Score Thursday' peek... I'm looking forward to it. (smile)
