“Dog Days Are Over”

   

Description from Luna Chick aka Coral: This is one of my favorite songs. It is by Florence and the Machine. I recently realized that with 2 kids and a full time job the only time I have to exercise is at 6 a.m. Not good news for me since I am NOT a morning person. As I stumble down the street with the sun starting to rise I queue this song up on my iPod and play it 2 or 3 times really loud. After that all is good and I am ready to conquer the world (or at least get the kids ready for school and myself to work)! Google the song if you do not know it. If you give it a listen make sure to get about 1 minute into the song for the part that gets your blood pumping.

    I love the colors and choices in this pick, Coral! I will definitely give the song a listen! I am in your same shoes. My kids are grown but now I have 2 furkids and my job starts at 6 a.m. :( Some days I am groping around outside at 4:30 a.m. to get a few miles run. What we don’t do for our bodies! :)

    This is a perfect interlude between summer and fall – exactly the hues of the aging foliage :>) I’ll have to have a listen at the song, sounds very energetic…

    I need to take a listen.. Perhaps it will get me off the couch…and onto that treadmilll that recently has been gathering a lotta dust. And, Coral, beautiful pick – unique color somewhere between green & yellow…all just awesome.

    Gorgeous composition! Fav!
    I do my walking early each morning with the dogs and then again in the afternoon. If it weren’t for them, I’d be lazy and find excuses to not do it. They keep me going. :-) Good dogs!

    Pretty pick, Coral! I can hardly get out of bed in the AM anymore….in fact, I usually lay there after the alarm went off thinking about how I can’t wait to go back to bed!

    Oh Susie! I think the older we all get the more comfortable our beds are in the wee hours of the morning!

    Love bronze seed beads, chain and wire. These colors really work well. Your combo is not one I would have thought of.

    P.S. I’ll check out the song, too. It’s really hard for me to get up every am to go to work! : /
