Because she didn't know the words.
PS- Happy "What's Goin On" Day (Marvin Gaye's song released on this day in 1970 something. Good as anything else to celebrate on the 20th of January.

I am celebrating the person who invented indoor heating. 27 degrees is way too cold!
Also thinking about how cold it will be tomorrow morning - I signed up to give blood at 10:30am and am now regretting it. Mind you, I will keep the appointment, but I will be cursing the cold the entire trip! One kind of cool thing they do now is tell you where your blood went after it's been tested and vetted. My last donation went to VCU.

It’s fucking winter! We will have spring weather again next week. Not to worry.
I wish I could donate. Once I was diagnosed with lupus, my blood was tainted. I had donated a couple gallons before that. (A friend that used to donate with me had chronic hypotension (low BP), which would cause her to be rejected. So, right before she got to the BP checkpoint, she would slip outside and smoke a cigarette. 🤣🤣)

I nearly ditched my heat holder’s yesterday. They are so thick (and soft and warm) that I have to wear my big shoes with them. They are Propet and not as comfortable as New Balance for me. My ankle hurts when I wear them and yesterday the tongue on the right foot was very painful, no matter how loose the tie was.

Blood donation went well - tech was a little new and didn't place the needle quite correctly and had to adjust it, which was a royal pain in the ass. This time around I was smart and took a magazine so I could read while I sat there. Worked very well.
Went to Giant and got my groceries for the week, then went home to a nice nap.
It's 16 degrees out right now - thank god that Jack will walk the pooches for me!

I've been trying to cut back on my chilly pops but I'll tell you what----- this is some Old No7 kind of weather if I've ever seen it. I'm exercising some serious restraint at the moment to keep one within guidelines and the other at bay with duct tape and super glue.

Thanks be to Allah I haven't needed it so far this winter because I finished up the fifth of it (I bought it in the early days of living down in Shady Pines South) in the fall, and the empty bottle on the shelf doesn't do me any good but it looks cool. I need to take a picture of the thing I did with our bakers rack.

My shampoo changes colors when it is cold. Two years in a row, I’ve noticed this. I use the hard stuff on my little wisps of hair - Prell. (I love the smell!) It’s usually a dark Kelly green but when the temps drop to the 50s or lower for any significant time, it becomes very light Kelly green - sometimes nearly white! That is weird. Depending on how hot the shower is (and today it was steaming!), the bottle in the shower will gradually darken. But the spare bottle on the bathroom shelf isn’t changed by the steam.
