Music Monday! Every Painting in the MoMa.

Love Art? Don't have time to go to a Gallery? Try this - a 2 minute and 5 second tour through every painting on display from the painting galleries in the MoMA on April 10, 2010. (from chrspck on YouTube - www.chrspck.com )   It is set to the piano solo "Mad Rush," by Philip Glass , which is a nice compliment to the eclectic mix of paintings you will see. It goes rather quickly, but gives a nice taste of everything there is, and you can pause whenever you like to fully enjoy the pieces you like.  This was mentioned in the latest Real Simple Magazine (my favorite), and once I checked it out, I knew my Music Monday followers would really appreciate this. It doesn't replace the experience of actually visiting the MoMA , someday I hope to know what that feels like, but it sure does bring a taste of the wonderful things on display, and brings a yearning to visit a local art museum. That is something we should all do this summer to get out of the heat (100 degrees i

Music Monday! Cats in the Cradle

Image
Father's Day Special Cats in the Cradle - by Ugly Kid Joe I remember this song, a 1974 hit, when I was a small child.  The lesson got lost on me then - I just liked it because of the familiar nursery rhyme references.  It wasn't until Ugly Kid Joe made it popular again in the early 1990's, and I was about to have my first child, that the meaning of the song truly sunk in.  I was touched by the sadness, and took the warning of the message of 'actions speak louder than words' to heart.  I try to keep that in mind each day with my children, with those near and dear to me, and hope that my children will learn to value each other, family, and those close to them. Let's remember this Father's Day to honor our Dad's and keep in mind how short life is - and don't let things go left unsaid or undone... Raige Creations will still honor the Saturday Blog Shoppers Father's Day Special through today - Monday - in case you need a gift for your Special

Allergies...Ugh - but this info may help us all.....

I have had a terrible week this week as far as allergies go. I still don't know what I am actually allergic to, but Tuesday night and most of Wednesday I was completely suffering more than all year! I took a normally effective medicine, Claritin , but it felt like I took nothing at all. I have tried other medicines, but most make me feel, as they say, foggy or cloudy, but I say like I am swimming in gel. (I hate that feeling!) I complained to anyone who would listen, and found out some interesting things along the way. Many more people suffer from allergies than you think - more than 26 million Americans suffer from seasonal allergies. Allergies also take a toll on mental well-being. Studies have shown that during ragweed season, allergy sufferers often experience a general sense of fatigue — especially mental fatigue — and are more prone to feelings of sadness. People who suffer from allergies also are up to 14 times more likely to experience migraine headaches than those who do
