Flash Back...Latest Addiction

-
I was GOING to go to bed early tonight.... but thanks to The Bloggess & this post...
I can’t stop watching this. I have been sitting here in the computer again, forcing my children to watch me re live my youth through all of my favorite videos...

EVERY RANDOM song from my childhood...teenage years... like this...


Reminds me of the period in my life when I so desperately wanted to be British...
Don't mind me... it is late & I am stuck in the late 80's.... I need to go & compile my playlist with every old, random, one hit wonder I can think of...

And for all of you AMERICAN kids from the 1980's... you might actually recognize this one...
Despite going to every Depeche Mode & Inxs concert that came through Philly together this has to be the song that reminds me of
Song for Whoever

I never wanted to be British, but the British music of the 80's was pretty good!!

OH...I need to come back and watch the videos...I just needed to come by and say thanks for stopping in on my SITS day. It was fun to have so many people stop in! (I'm just slowly starting to get back to all of you now!)
Happy Thanksgiving...since I'm from Canada!

The 80's were amazing! INXS was one of my favorites!!! Hubby still has the cologne (he doesn't wear it) and a t-shirt. Too funny!

Okay, I'm trying to explain to my family why I am laughing so hard!!!

I've been trying to get Cameron to listen to the true originals of these 2 songs ever since there have been remakes and mixes done...she's not biting!

I wish we could do a gotomeeting or something so that we peruse all these together!!

Hey you... hungry butt!

Hey you, Hungry butt!!!! .... First thought that played through my mind as I stood behind the woman in the GREY SWEATPANTS in line at the post office..... Hungry Butt is what my little sister & her friends say when referring to what in my day, was called a WEDGIE ..... "Hungry Butt" just fit the large bottom , which was gobbling its underwear in front of me.... Ugh.... the sight of her butt was burning into my mind as I waited in the ridiculously SLOW line at the post office.... No longer able to stand the site... I put my boxes down... and did the neighborly thing.... I pulled her underwear out of her butt.... You should have seen the SHOCK & SURPRISE on her face ... Ummm , OK I didn't do that... I tapped her on her shoulder & in my best AMERICAN accent announced to her & the rest of the post office... that she had the picture perfect HUNGRY BUTT... cause it was gobbling everything in sight... K... I didn't do that either... I just stood...

A visit to the ICE AGE....

Sunday... FUN-DAY, Another family day..... Because we had such nice weather, (never knowing how long it will last) we decided to take another family hike.... (2.5 hours....) around the be ach. It is funny, each week, each hike, I see changes in our family....less whining (on my part) & more time learning, enjoying our time together....Bjørn who usually gets irritated with all of my picture taking, is stopping to find things to take pictures of...appreciating colors, nature etc. Dane is less squeamish...touching & picking up all of sorts of things he finds along the hike.... Today we learned about Jettegryter or "Stone Pots" these huge rock formations from the ICE AGE .... pretty cool... these holes are formed by pebbles/gravel being aggitated by water, over thousand of years.... WOW..The holes on our local beach date back to 15,000 years.... the kids had a blast.... & wanted to stay much long...
