Noise? What Noise??

We're back at home this week for the holiday. It feels good to be home, but a little overwhelming with the clutter left behind after our quick departure. I'm even more determined to get rid of half our stuff once we move back from Tennessee. John had to go into work for a bit today and is bringing me back as many boxes as he can. I may not be able to get started today, but at least I'll have the boxes when I'm ready. Something to look forward to!

Since I don't have any pictures to show, I thought I'd share our Fall '07 soundtrack. We've picked up some great new music recently.

Finally, picked up The Weepies that have been on my list to buy for a while. John says the girl's voice kinda gets on his nerves, but I love the folky sweetness of it. I can't stop singing Gotta Have You and Citywide Rodeo. John's favorite: The World Spins Madly On.

Oh, Icky Thump! The many ways that I love you! The first 3 songs are on constant rotation now but I predict that we'll move through the rest of the album quickly. Just when I think Jack & Meg can't possibly get any better, well, off they go.

And who would have thought to pair these two together?  A musical genius, that's who! The whole album blows me away. Beautiful, haunting, yet simple and just so right. Polly Come Home and Your Long Journey are perfect.

Well, I hope you have a wonderful week planned. We'll be at the beach relaxing with family this week, and I'll be finishing up The Thirteenth Tale so I can start The Book of Lost Things. I love a great story, but a book about books is heaven indeed. Have fun!

Love that Weepies album and The Book of Lost Things is good. Now I'll have to go give a listen to that Alison Krauss CD.

hey, did you see that JC Penney commercial with the weepies song in it? And i think there is an old navy commercial that uses a heavily edited one, too.
