Saturday 9: Time for Livin' (1968)
Unfamiliar with this week's tune? Hear it here. I loved their song called Never My Love.
1) This song is about taking "time for life." Do you have a busy, highly-scheduled Saturday planned? Or will you have an opportunity to just relax and enjoy?
Saturday will be superbusy for me. I am flying out of Los Angeles airport at am and headed to Austin Texas. I am going to a glamping crafting event at the Lone Star Glamp Inn at Round Top Texas.
2) Lead singer Larry Ramos begins by telling us he likes to kick off his shoes and go barefoot. How about you? Do you like to feel "the good earth under your feet?" I used to go barefoot all the time,
but my feet are more sensitive now, so I wear my flip flop most of the time.
3) He sings that once he took off his watch, he found he had all the time in the world. Tell us about your watch. I have a Fitbit watch. It has a white band and black face. It was a Christmas gift.
4) With lyrics that include words like "grooving" and "hang-ups," this song is very much a product of its time. Share some of the slang you used during your adolescent years. I remember at the end
of 9th grade, people signed the saying "have a bitchen summer" I remember far out, groovy, bummer, can you dig it.
5) He sings that his attitude has been rearranged. What is something you have changed your mind about? Lots of things,
6) This week's group, The Association, was founded in Hawaii. Hawaii produces more pineapple than other state in the union. When did you most recently have pineapple? I had it last week. I also like pineapple juice. This picture was taken in November of 2018 after hiking Diamond Head Crater.
7) In 1968, when this song was popular, Jacqueline Kennedy married Aristotle Onassis. Think about the last wedding you attended. Were you closer to the bride or to the groom, or were you equally close to both? I can't think of any that I have been to in quite awhile.
8) In 1968, when this song was popular, Laugh In was America's #1 TV show and it made a star of Goldie Hawn. Do you have a favorite Goldie Hawn movie? Christmas Chronicles 2 is the first thing that came to my mind.
9) Random question: Who is the most recent person you made smile, and what did you do? My grandson Elijah. He was sitting on my computer chair going around while playing his game.
All the grands were here on Thursday, and we got to Bible journal Pslam 32:12
The lighting is really bad in this picture.
So proud of how they really worked on their pages after discussing freedom.
