Ok…so my friend ?friend?, Alayna wants me to spray something on the tree that smells like a tom cat peed..supposedly I won’t be able to smell it…like I can’t smell a litter box too…but I’ll try it – she has never led me astray yet…

Karen and Deb and I went to see Iowa’s own Jim McDonough and his orchestra and singers yesterday at Hoyt Sherman in Des Moines.  He is an Iowa Pianist from Cedar Rapids and puts on a remarkable christmas show.  I think he only tours in Iowa…sorry you outta staters…He is in Cedar Rapids today for 2 shows.  I don’t know how to get tickets on Sunday or I would be there…Cedar Rapids is too far to drive for possible tickets.  Next week he is in Dubuque and Cedar Falls…I’m going to try to get tickets so he can see this show …. it is amazing…

Guess I’ll stay home and drink coffee and get Christmas stuff done – it’s not like I don’t have enough to do.

Isismoon…if you have an opportunity to see this guy and love the Christmas feeling thru music…. I recommend it….and if you love the music and his piano music, close your eyes and take it in all thru your ears occasionally….

Until next time….
