Dear Sparky,
I had no idea that my sign-off was a dance title! Looked just now in my fake book but couldn't find it. But I believe you! I know there's a Missouri Waltz. I pioneered there 40 years ago, passed through your Texas to get there. Wow! great way to leave the pain behind---talk about music and dance. I feel inspired to get back on the dance floor. The JWs here sure enjoy it. Keep singing and dancing and your heart will be free! So great to share---
All singing and dancing,
CoCo

Hey Sparky--------
"Shall we dance-da-da-da!!!!!!!!!!" Vive la musique! Vive la danse! Vive Tony Bennett! I can see your gown of beautiful hue a-swirling!
Waltzing in 3/4 time,

Dear Baba, Sparkplug, and Daystar,
Great comments about gratitude, trying hard, benefiting from lessons learned and having Tony singing in yer head! I knew I'd have something good waiting for me when I got home. Many, many thanks!
Love,
CoCo
lately i have been thinking.
there are things i want.
i am so tired of working so hard for goals just to watch the prize be taken by someone else who is only slightly interested in the finished product.
Hi Sparky,
I really don't feel worthy, but my nickname is Sparky also. For me, though, it's to do more with appearance than disposition. Your thread inspired me on the "Wanna Be Around" piece. I've never been a fighter like you've seen the need to become. Blown up alot. All emotional. Shrapnel does the most good where it doesn't hit. I see your point to direct your blows to get results. I'm grateful that you "went public"---it's helped me!
Love,
CoCo (or a lesser-worthy Sparky)

Dear Friends,
Whether lurkers or respondants, you have done much to encourage me. Thanx for your comments here and the PMs. I know that if one person can make a difference, then many can make a huge difference in the life of another. You have for me.
Love,
CoCo
my partners brother is being released from state prison on 12/7 and jake has to go to huntsville to pick him up.
i am cooking a big thanksgiving dinner and his mom wants me to duplicate it when the a**hole gets home and cook a big dinner for x-mas too.
i get 1 day off a week and i am starting to resent being the fricking maid.
Hello Hambeak,
I am in a near-identical situation myself. It's a juggling act between your rights and sanity and the wishes/needs of others. Being honest, but tactfully so, is no guarantee you'll make everyone happy, but it's better than seething with internal rage. Gosh, you've just vented for me! Will stay in touch.
In not-so-quiet desperation,
CoCo

Patsy Cline made us cry when she 'went to pieces.' Tony Bennett wanted "to be around to pick up the pieces when somebody breaks your heart". As I was reflecting upon Johnny Mercer and Sadie Vimmerstedt's hit "I Wanna Be Around", it occurred to me that we have had our collective hearts broken. We are all in various stages of recovery, but despite our pain, 'we want to be around to pick up the pieces when somebody (WT) "breaks the heart"' of our loved ones. Lady Lee expressed it beautifully in "Should We Unite With a Cause": "We have made the greatest impact by being honest and telling our stories," stating too that just ONE person speaking out against control, manipulation and abuse can effect change. We speak out, but through our tears.
What helps you personally move forward to aid others, in spite of your pain, your "broken heart"?
With a mending heart,
CoCo
help guys!!!
this is driving me crazy....this is a classical piece by anton rubinstein called melody in f. i swear they used major parts of it as the basis for a kingdom song.
does anyone recognize it and if so can you tell me which kingdom song?
Dear Missbehave,
Looks even better with The Captain's entry. Melodically, #34 is certainly closer to Melody in F. And it's the next door neighbor to #35! I was too caught up in the key of F. It takes more than one mind to solve the question of the ages.
Melodically yours,
CoCo

CoCo is back with some good news, thanx to Nathan Natas! The song NN alluded to, "Love's Excelling Way" (#35) could be it. Both are in the key of F, employ duple meter (2/4 and 4/4 time) and are first cousins melodically. What is a signature, however, at the beginning of Melody in F, is middle C followed by B natural (a half-step lower). That mild dissonance is edgy and perfect as the ear expects B flat, which is part of the key of F. Expect the unexpected! #35 is charming and dear but it has neither the sweep nor lasting power of the Rubinstein.
Forever the classics!
CoCo

Dear Missbehave,
Nothing like being tormented by a melody that won't go away! However, Rubinstein's Melody in F is a simple, yet gorgeous melody that could be incorporated easily into another piece (examples later). I have played every Kingdom Song and use some of them in my teaching program. Very few Kingdom Tunes measure up to the sheer beauty of Melody in F. A few. I'll look into this and get back to you, unless someone else beats me to the punch. We don't want you lying awake at night over this!
With a song in my heart,
CoCo
