Jolene


Jolene

On October 24th I flew home after being in Chicago on a job for 24 days.   I got to see my Daughter Alli, her husband Bob and the grandkids so that was great.  I loved being on a construction site.

But. But the music.  The table that I worked at had a store speaker right about it.   The store, a Burlington Coat Factory, has a set of canned music that they played over and over.   Most of it I had no idea what it was.   Music targeting young people.

Beyonce’ does a version of Dolly Parton’s Jolene.  I didn’t care for it when Dolly sang it, and Beyonce’s version is even worse.   I bet I heard it literally 10 times a day. That is 160 sessions of Jolene. Ahhhggggghhhhh!!!

Next time I see you, please do not sing any part of the Jolene song. I will lose it.

I also ate peanut butter and jelly every day I was on the job. So 15 or so PBnJs. I don’t want to see any of that for a while either.

Variety is a good thing. Let’s mix it up!!!


It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to be the good.
