M is for Monday

...and muffin as well as music...

Do you ever have one of those mornings when you cannot get up, get going, and get on your way? That was so me this morning. Even the emergency coffeestop (loooove McDonalds McCafe) didn't do the trick.

But its the magical combination of some inspiring (and just plain catchy) tunes and a homemade apple muffin that is making my least favorite morning more bearable.

Sometimes music just does that for you, ya know? Enjoy some songs that have been in rotation in on my iphone lately:

Hope you have a happy Monday!

the hope is love.

I have yet another niece on the wayyyyy....

so much love for my brother and sister!
