"I'll light the fire
you place the flowers in the vase that you bought today."
-Our House (Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young)
"Our House"
Our house is kinda full today. For a very good reason. Thing #3 graduates from high school. Pretty soon she will be flying the coop too, just like Things #1 and #2. But for now? My house is a very, very, very fine house. Two dogs in the yard. Everything is easy 'cause the family is all here. Celebrating. La, la, la, la.

You have spoken, and I have listened...sort of. Hey, it's more than my Things usually get outta me when they speak! Regarding Song-ography "prompts vs. no prompts" (why do I think of SURVIVOR? haha), my new "free-style" prompt-less approach will be in effect from now on. However, the FIRST Tuesday of each month I will give a "suggested song prompt" for those who like to have more of a direction. I will participate along with that prompt on those Tuesdays too. The one consistent always will be the purpose Song-ography:
Song/Lyric + Photo(s) = Song-ography
All links that do not meet those criteria will be deleted. Links from blogs, Instagram, Flickr are all welcome.
As always, thank you so much for stopping by, commenting, joining in (any or all of the previous)! All are appreciated. Please take the time to visit some of those who join in here at Song-ography. I will be by to visit every one's posts.
Thanks!

Phew - lucky me for today that it is not the 1st Tuesday of the month, otherwise... I would not have made it :) But I did, finally.
ReplyDeleteHappy full house, Kathy!
Lovely flowers!
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure I "played along" correctly, only using the song title in my blog title. Let me know!
ReplyDeleteI always love it when everyone's home too but I'd be using Madness "our house in the middle of our street" fa la la la la!

Hope that your daughter did a miraculous recovery and that the evening went according to plan
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful idea to link a photo with lyrics of a song. I gotta try this for future posts!

But then - it's nice to have "our space" & routine back too.
Congrats on the final high school graduation - you deserve a glass of wine.......or beer!

ReplyDeleteHey, I have that same pitcher! Now I wish I had some peonies to put in it. Love your photograph!
ReplyDeleteLove that full house feeling! (and your nail color!!)
ReplyDeletehi Kathy!
ReplyDeleteI joined your link-up! Rare of me, huh? But I hope to do so more often. yay!!!
I love the close-up of the sweater more than the gorgeous blooms.
I still maintain I am a very lucky photographer at time and rather mediocre at others. lol

Great compromise! Your houseful sounds wonderful and congrats on Thing 3's graduation! You all have had a lot of changes over the last year or so!
ReplyDeleteA perfect song choice. To think there were times when we would give anything for a moment of peace with kids screaming, running in and out the door, leaving the bathroom looking like it had been raided by a band of banshees. I sleep better, breathe better, and smile more when my munchkins are both home.
ReplyDeleteHurrah for a monthly prompt, a fine compromise indeed! *grins
