HEARYEE HEARYEE!!

Monday 12:30pm, another HOT day in the city. King Richard was at the head table. There arose a loud clang as Lady Lori of Santa Rosa Dodge was told to invoke the pledge to the kingdom. Then Lady Patsy of the Barnes pleaded to Merlin to ease the HOT. Sir Jim of Underhill announced the visiting knights and ladies of the realm from the local fiefdoms of Rotary. It was another day in the city. King Richard requested Sir Ken of Communications to introduce his guest from afar. Sir Ron of the "Rock" introduced his guest from afar, too.

She began the program with "Snap your fingers"…then gave us a rendition of "I get by with a little help from my friends". She related music to a touchstone. She gave us a list of songs to identify how our day had been so far: "Workin’ on the Chain Gang".  Then asked us to use the song titles to answer how is your significant Other?: "Doin’What Comes Naturally". Then, how was last Christmas?: "Boom, Boom It’s Great to Be Crazy." She then showed slides of children and adults who have benefited from music therapy.
