Rainy Days and Mondays Always Get Me Down - No!
My son was listening to The Carpenters’ song “Talking to myself and feeling old. Sometimes I’d like to quit. Nothing ever seems to fit… What I’ve got they used to call the blues …”
It is a timely song for this rainy Monday.
It is one of the very few songs I can bravely sing during videoke times because of my very low-pitched voice.
It is a classic love song which has been my favorite for decades. I heard Karen Carpenter singing it way back in 1970-1971 when I was a freshman in high school and simply liked it and I continued to be fond of the song in its revived version by Paul Williams in the late 70s when I was a newbie at work. Of course, “somebodies” loved me then (my mom, my siblings, my auntie Iniang and my secret ….s)
But, it is NOT MY SONG this time as I begin a new journey (so I have to feel young), as I have to let go of regrets, pains and anxieties and live (in a brand new world) not quit, and as I gradually come to realize my purpose in life (which perfectly fits God’s master plan).
Now, rainy days and Mondays don’t get me down and make me blue!
Hi Mrs. Roselo, this is TeacherJulie. I was Aleli’s Kinder or Prep teacher in Sunny Hill. I am so glad you are into blogging. This is one avenue to unleash those creative juices and thoughts and put them in writing.
I hope you can register and join us over at PinoyMomsNetwork or at FilipinaImages.

P.S. I like Father Jboy, brief but thought provoking homilies.

Teacher, I am still a “special child” when in comes to blogging. I am happy I started even this late. It would keep me sensitive to people, places and things around me and me learning continuously.
Yes, I will join a blog community soon. I will just have to know 101s of blogging first. Am really looking forward to join either of your groups.
More happy mom blogging-teaching-learning days to you!
Aloha! I found you through Pinoy Moms Network (from your reply to Mixednut’s post). I enjoy reading your blog. I’d be back for more.
