Now I understand the deep chill out there

in Colorado

out there in that state of Michigan

and even up there in

Virginia

and

New York

...

But here in Florida

this morning I'm thinkin we can get frozen fresh OJ off the tree!

And

as I sit and think back to last night

and those

Grammy's I can't help but think

of the opening

and all the many who walked the red carpet

and

as the show opened wondered of their

"breath", and wondered if they too were wondering how in the world they would pull it off with their own pain of loss

having lost

Whitney Houston

now having to dig deep into their abilities to have

the show "go on"

and make it fantastic.

We all knew the lights and the bling

would be fantastic,

and the best and worst dressed would not disappoint us,

and would in fact amaze us at times.

Bruce "the boss" still looking fierce after all these years, but maybe it was my ears, as I had trouble understanding the words, but settled to just enjoy his energy and be stunned at the depth of his band.

And

Adele sweeping the Grammy's and her unforgettable acceptance speech,

we went back in time

with the

Beach Boys

and oh those

GOOD VIBRATIONS

with the new and the

originals!

and Sir Paul

did his "thing"

and

performers showed that the

"show must go on"

and on and on

and what was up with the outrageous

GaGa and her getup?

haha

But

LL Cool was a class act

with his opening, his energy

and

his prayer that he read

and his ability to

move the energy into one of

"Let's absorb ourselves in the Universal healing of MUSIC",

such a truth in the world

no matter who you are.

Music is the Universal Language

that tells a story,

that moves the soul to depths

like nothing ever has

or probably ever will

...

Whitney Houston take your bow,

dance in the lights of Heaven

along with the greats who have gone before you!

I'm so glad they showed her singing at the prior Grammy's

and the power of when she moved the audience and the world that watched

for when she was at her prime

she was at her best.

And yes

to keep it real

the Grammy's has in fact snubbed some of the best,

while giving out those little beautiful honors to others

over the years.

But last night

they picked one who is destined to become one that we will surely hear more of, one that has some amazing pipes

and

who sang her heart out

remembering

Whitney when she was at her best

and

who was able to take that stage with grace,

with power

and

do her proud.

Jennifer Hudson

sure was the one to pick

last night

and

I hope her life and her sales soar with the eagles

and

she now will take her place standing strong,

while remembering how wrong stardom can go if one does not monitor themselves and stay with others who can walk along side you with the same honor in a world filled with glamor and pressure

and paths that are sometimes hard to resist along with pain that is often hard to manage.

Thank you Jennifer Hudson for such a moving tribute:

My deepest sympathies to the family

of

Whitney Houston

May you find comfort in the days and months ahead as you continually are barraged by the media,

are confronted with stories both real and imagined; questioned and subjected to tabloids and stories that you will need to

"black out"

rather than take into your systems.

My deepest sympathies to Clive Davis who loved Whitney and saw the raw and sophisticated talent he helped to shape into a superstar; he loved her, he was there to attempt to bring her back to the brilliant voice she once had.

><

I remember when she sang,

"Didn't We Almost Have It All"

and all those songs,

what a voice, what a world

life is so very fragile

and

yes we do have choices in our lives,

but at times

we are not even aware that our choices are out of our own control.

Things can change so quickly.

Choose wisely,

and be aware of your surroundings,

of those you surround yourself with

of those medications that physicians prescribe to you.

and

enjoy your life,

the good the bad the scary.

On a great note this chilly Monday Morning,

our friend Joey Graff had let me know that his 4 legged nephew Ollie had bolted out an open fence in Marion Ohio yesterday... His older brother Ben was frantic and the search was on...

Everyone on Facebook was putting out pleas across Ohio for "Ollie" and about the time a person named "Mash" had sent me a message on my fanpage requesting a picture of Ollie,

I got that request to Joey,

and he sent out a message:

"OLLIE HAS BEEN FOUND"

...

Oh happy day as it was artic time in Ohio

and I'm sure Ben *Ollie's human* was dancing in the streets* along with Joey in his home!

So it is great news

as today I'm sure the brothers are dancing and getting "slurps" and probably feeding

little OLLIE steak.

Welcome home Ollie you little rascal you,

and

keep your 4 legged butt inside unless you gotta go potty, you were giving all of us

heart palpatations across the lands!

><

It's time to get your "shine on" friends and warm yourselves by doing your

"Monday dance"

and

start off this week finding something to feel

good about...

With that said,

Have a blessed week,

and know;

somebody loves ya babies.

Walk In Beauty,
