Well...I am Finally updating!

Yes...it's been a long time since I have entered a new post, but here it is. I have really been busy with my Multiple Sclerosis Support Group, the Lions Club, singing...streaming...just enjoying life.
Trying to get my two oldest through exam week at college will be interesting. I hope we all will survive it. To top that off, I have to take a trip to Nashville that same week to see my MS doc.

Things will get better, I know they will. It has been so beautiful weather-wise, and now snow is back in the forecast for tomorrow. Surely not at the end of April!

At Fireside Chat...things are as toasty as ever. We welcome any and all to gather round the fire and listen to some great music, and chat with some great people. www.fireside-chat.com will get ya there.

We'll leave the fire blazing for ya!

The Grammys, Music, Music and More Music!

Well the much anticipated Grammy's have come and gone. In my opinion it was one of the best Grammy Awards I have ever seen, and without telling my age, I have seen quite a few.

I was disappointed that my favorite cutie pie and talented Keith Urban didn't win a Grammy, but I'm over it. He has enough talent in his little finger to make it anyway.

Great time in Fireside Chat last night. Gaelic streamed her usual magic for the listeners, and on Valentine's Day no less. Her first hour "she streamed sappy love songs" her quote...I might add. Those of us who know and love Gaelic know how very hard that was for her to do...haha.

Tune in tonight...MOON will be streaming...and MOVE will be in absentia due to technical difficulties. We have a great time, so pop into Fireside Chat. We'll leave the light on for ya. :)

Birthday Girl Kelsy, Mom and Dad 

Birthday Girl...Great Weather...and A Hot Time in Fireside Chat

My neice, and Gaelic's daughter turned 15 today. I can't believe it. My little Kelsy, 15 years old. We had a great time over the weekend celebrating her birthday. She has spent every birthday with us since she was born. We celebrated with death by chocolate cake, and homemade lasagna, her favorite things.

Tunesman streamed a great stream on Saturday Night. Cal was absent, so gaelic filled in for him Sunday Night, and she also streamed a kickin' stream Sunday Night. Moon is fronting for our Euro Man...MOVE. Move found a great guitar... a one of a kind Lord Dracula. Lucky man. :)

We're having unusually balmy weather here at Fireside Chat for being in the dead of winter. We don't have to cut as much wood or work too hard carrying out the ashes in the fireplace.

Hugs to all...and tune into www.fireside-chat.com for a great time.

Jazz Matazz from MOONitic

Sounds so smooth it was glassy in Fireside Chat tonight. Wilman came by and paid us a nice visit. We chatted about New Age Music, Native American Music, our favorite Jazz artist, 10e also dropped in and his son Shawn. We just had an event filled night. Of course Gaelic was in the house as well. Just a slow smooth night. A night for sippin' your favorite refreshing beverage and kickin back. Hope you all joined us!

That Dern Ole Groundhog...

From all news account he saw his shadow and ran back into his little hole. Six more weeks of winter weather, if the prognosticators are correct. We had a great time at Fireside tonight. It was all toasy and warm in spite of the freezing rain falling outside. Gatekeeper rocked the house!

A friend of mine has developed her very own webpage and I am so proud of her! Folk Art by Jamie can be accessed at:

Pay her site a visit, you'll be glad you did. :)

Fowl, Colds and Quiche Lorraine

We had a great night in Fireside Chat last night. We were honored to have pay us a visit Sir Bacchus. We had not had the pleasure of his company in quite a while so we were very glad to have him stop by our fireplace and sit a spell. Gaelic...as usual was in the groove, and rocked the house, playing everyones favorite tunes and sneaking a few of her own. MOVE sent an email picture of Quiche Lorraine which made us all hungry. We wondered who actually cooked that delicious looking Quiche...no one really said, but it made us all hungry anyway.

Tonight Moon opens at 10:00 for MOVE from Belgium, and we are looking forward to hearing both the streamers with their own style, Moon's classics and MOVE's Euro Trash...(His own words, by the way.)

Stop by and see us. We're in the room with the fire stoked at 10:00 p.m. http://www.fireside-chat.com.

We will leave the light on for ya.

After recouperating from my cold/bronchitis/pneumonia and drinking enough chicken soup to sink a battleship, I'm ready for a fun time at Fireside tonight. Come on and join us. :)

Euro Trash at Fireside?

You heard it right folks, we have a new streamer I want to welcome to Fireside Chat! MOVE is from Belgium, Europe. I am so tickled that he is willing to share some of his music collection with us at Fireside Chat. He calls his "stuff" Euro Trash... but from what I've heard, it sounds just fine to me..haha

MOON is rockin' the house tonight! It's after 1 am and we still have peeps in the room. If you don't have anything else to do, are an insomniac, love music...or any excuse at all will do...stop by Fireside Chat and Stream. http://www.fireside-chat.com

We will leave the light on for ya!
