Monday Morning Wake-Up Call

Well, the man just let me out
And I think it’s Monday morning
There’s a taste here in my mouth
That tastes like Monday morning
If I’m tasting my own mouth
And if it’s Monday morning
Well I should be doin’ fine
When I get you off my mind
And if it’s Monday morning

Lee Hazlewood, from “If it’s Monday Morning” (1971)

      1. Honestly? I get up early still…and it took me a while to lean into retirement..I struggled with no longer being needed by anyone, after being available 24/7. I hadn’t anticipated that…Bt now, I awake to your posts and your photos, have virtual coffee with Lori and ease into the morning with the NYT crossword puzzle…as much as I love the pay-off of downtime, it took me a while to get into the groove..

        1. Hi Mimi 🙂

          To watch the video, try doing a “cut and paste” of the following into your web browser… To make it work you will have to delete THE VERY FIRST LETTER “X”.

          Give it a try… I hope it works!

          1. Well, i copied and pasted and an interview with Jamie Raskin opining about court rulings – so, not sure that was the intended video. That said, thank you for trying ….and I hope your day is awesome!

          2. Hmmm That’s not correct…
            It should bring up a song that begins with the lyrics that David wrote in this post. Let’s try again!

            Copy the following into Google search.
            A link to the video should pop up… then just click on the link…(Fingers crossed!)

          3. I’m glad it worked Mimi! And you returned the favor by sending me to the dictionary once again 🙂 I now know what Luddite means!

            In my humble opinion, you are way too hard on yourself about using computers! If you can get into this blog and make comments, and also follow my instructions to use google, then you are doing very well!

            My mother would never use an ATM machine. She was always afraid she would break something! And she lived long enough that ATMs were in her world for decades. I found this to be strange as she was not shy about technology in the medical field. She became a doctor of chiropractic in 1948! (I will always be very proud of her!)

          4. She sounds amazing and very accomplished! I understand her hesitation, new concepts are great – in measured amounts…

      1. And this is exactly why I think both of you are awesome! 🙂

        Unlikely to happen in this modern world of computers, but it would be a privilege to meet you both in person! (You two could sit together without killing each other… Right??) (laughing)

          1. Ok then.
            You may pay. But, not sure you can afford the price.
            I was going to put this under charity on my taxes.

  1. … If the “Google approach” doesn’t work, go to youtube.com and bring up YouTube. Then click on the search icon (magnifying glass) in YouTube. THEN Copy and paste this (same) line below into the YouTube search field, and hit enter… (I’m determined! 😉). (This YouTube search should also bring up a link (photo of a man standing and singing)). Try clicking on that photo! 🤗
