I'm glad that you posted.

Been thinking about my mom today.

I used to sing "Brokedown Palace" to her while she was in hospice, even though she was largely deaf. She would just look at me and smile while I sang. She was probably just being polite.

She liked the song.

I was going to post it today, but I couldn't bring myself to do it.

When I was a kid, my dad used to whistle a tune while he worked. I have no idea what the song was, but I remember him whistling it...and I find myself to this day, over 50 years later, humming it when I work.
