So... now I'm listening to an "oldies" station. As if Marc doesn't have enough to tease me about.
In our town we have 4 different local Christian music stations. We are very fortunate as I know many towns maybe have one, if that. And these stations vary in their "conservativeness", tempo, etc... I tend to listen to one that I really like, however, according to Marc it is the "old people" station, as it's on the more conservative side of the spectrum. I really like the other stations, too... except they play commercials and the trade-off for commercial free radio is worth the lighter fare they play. Anyway, according to my hubby I listen to "old people music".
Now just Friday night, Marc and I were blessed by our neighbors. They took the kids so we could have a much needed date night. We went to Texas Roadhouse by default (least wait of all the places we tried... we were hungry!). By the way, I think I had the BEST burger of my life Friday night. Seriously. A simple bacon cheeseburger, cooked medium with a little worcestershire sauce. Oh my! I made myself eat it all, it was that good and not the point of this post what-so-ever.
Anyway, while there, at Texas Roadhouse, naturally there was country music playing which sparked a conversation between myself and Marc. I used to 
be a BIG country fan. It's all I listened to for a long time and I even completed my internship here at our local (but huge) country radio station.
be a BIG country fan. It's all I listened to for a long time and I even completed my internship here at our local (but huge) country radio station. In our conversation, we were discussing how I used to listen to country all the time, but now I don't (due to the "old people" music I now listen to). I made the comment about how country was the best from mid-eighties to mid-nineties. I miss songs like, "Shake the Sugar Tree" by Pam Tillis or "Young Love" by Wynonna, or "Be My Baby Tonight" by John Michael Montgomery, etc...
So, Saturday morning, while cleaning, I flip through our music stations (we reactivated our DirecTV now that we have income) and guess what I found?! A "Prime Country" station: the greatest county hits of the 80's and 90's. Oh goodness... my day was made. Amazing how great music can boost your mood throughout the day.
Let the teasing begin.

I still remember every time "The Dance" by Garth Brooks would come on you would shhhh everyone, and lay down on the floor, close your eyes, and be fully immersed in the song :)
Country is good. I haven't listened to it regularly because, like you I listen mostly to Christian, but every now and then I flip to the country side :)
Oh now, don't I feel silly. Thanks a lot, Jill, for sharing that with the whole world. :) Love ya! And yes, I LOVE "The Dance," by Garth.
Yeah, it's definitely a boys shirt but Jared HAD to have it for Kadri! Good luck on your drive out to Iowa, we drove here this morning and it was smooth sailing-Kadri pretty much slept for 2 hours and then watched TV the rest of the time! It's so great that she likes that now ;) Drive safe!
