The Daily Prompt got my wheels spinning (or records, as we used to call them). The idea posed was this: “Tell us how your week went by putting together a playlist of five songs that represent it.”
Monday, ah Monday…..drag myself from under the comfort of my duvet to dutifully arrive at my job.
Romantic Monday gave me a much-needed pick-me-up and I moved on into Tuesday and Wednesday with a mission to write more of my book. (Thanks Sage, for the encouragement)
As the week progressed, Mother Nature seemed to be rid of her mood swings and the temperature started to climb. The sun shone and I could feel spring lurking around the corner.
Yesterday was a bit of a reflective day as I thought about losing my dad seven years ago. I soaked up some sun on my deck and felt the vibrations of his presence. Since he loved the Beach Boys, this song seemed appropriate if I listen to the lyrics differently and hear them from a father about his daughter.

And as I am sitting in my office on a Sunday, the only song that can accurately project my mood is this:

Thank you for sharing this. I loved the musical prompt idea!
It was certainly different…and fun coming up with the songs that reflected my week. 🙂
This was a good idea. Worth doing each week, because 5 isn’t too many.
It was a good idea. It really made me think back to the important moments in the week.
It did. Music always makes me do that. I love when one song or album makes me think of multiple times in different decades.
It does have a unique way of transporting us through time. There are songs I listen to from the 80’s and I’m immediately reminded of people and places that I don’t see often any more, but still hold them close to my heart. Music will always help me smile.
I absolutely love music and (seriously) couldn’t live without it! This is a great post and gave me something to rock to this morning 😉 I haven’t heard the last song before, it’s brilliant! 😀
It’s one of my favorites!! And although my dad used to blast the Beach Boys at top volume at 6:00 am, I can never hear them without smiling. 🙂

Great list of music, especially Paperback Writer. As a writer I look forward to more of your posts.
Thank you. I appreciate that.
