Looks like a fun time, you had folks from everywhere!

Barb (Gather Site Ferret) Carlson Sep 4, 2009, 3:03pm EDT

That was Anita's organizing. I just showed up. :)

BRAVO BARB!
What a delightful tune you've written and sang for us here! You're AWESOME!

Barb (Gather Site Ferret) Carlson Sep 4, 2009, 3:05pm EDT

Thank you. I really am all red in the face. My boss is going to think I'm sick. LOL! [We have 5 cases of H1N1 in my building and 1 for sure on the same floor.]

your voice is very pleasant and comforting.

Barb (Gather Site Ferret) Carlson Sep 4, 2009, 3:25pm EDT

Hee hee. Comforting? That's the first time anyone has said that. Thanks! :)

Lori Cee Sep 4, 2009, 3:46pm EDT

heh. i say that as an ex-preschool teacher who has listened to hundreds of lullabies.

Barb (Gather Site Ferret) Carlson Sep 4, 2009, 3:48pm EDT

Hee hee. I didn't even know there were hundreds of lullabies. I only know a few. I wrote one for my kids a looooong time ago. :)

that was wonderful!!

Barb (Gather Site Ferret) Carlson Sep 4, 2009, 3:26pm EDT

<<blush>> I see all the things wrong with it! Maybe when I'm 90 I'll be able to look at it objectively.

Call me a musical snob, but this song is much better live! ;D

Barb (Gather Site Ferret) Carlson Sep 5, 2009, 11:57am EDT

Eh? Are you dissing my singing, girl?

Kimbeaux E. Sep 5, 2009, 1:04pm EDT

nonono! I'm saying it's even more wonderful in person!

Barb (Gather Site Ferret) Carlson Sep 5, 2009, 2:20pm EDT

Oh, okay. I don't have to repossess your ferrets then. LOL!

Oh, Barb, that was awesome!!!!! You can sing too!!!!!!! I would never, never, never be brave enough to do that, mainly because they would stop recording after my first line!!! LOL, I CANNOT sing!!!!!!!

It looks like you all had a great time!!!!!!

Barb (Gather Site Ferret) Carlson Sep 5, 2009, 12:00pm EDT

Thanks, Barb. That wasn't my best singing job, but not too bad considering I had to yell all day to be heard over the noise of the ferret show. She didn't record the part about my saying it was a little mean to make me sing when my voice was so faded from yelling all day. :) It's about the song, really, and not so much about my "skill" as a singer.

Did you catch the part that I wrote the song? :)

barb n. Sep 5, 2009, 1:29pm EDT

Yes I did!!!! I cannot believe that I didnt say anything about that~~~~~ I really like it, you are a very powerful "wordsmith"? Is that a real word?

I think that you sound a tad bit Irish:)

Barb (Gather Site Ferret) Carlson Sep 5, 2009, 12:01pm EDT

Irish?!? Hmmm ... that's interesting. Maybe it's the song.

barb n. Sep 5, 2009, 1:29pm EDT

Maybe, I listened to it again, and laughed when you spit and growled!!!!!

And she sings too! Wow, you are a lady of many talents. I'm impressed.

Barb (Gather Site Ferret) Carlson Sep 7, 2009, 12:50pm EDT

Thanks, Lee. I do lots of things sorta good but very little so well anyone would pay me for it. LOL!

Lee P. Sep 7, 2009, 2:19pm EDT

That's not true. Your writing is a marketable product but it takes giving up a lot of our lives to persue some of these things and sometimes we just don't have the drive or support system behind us to do it. Your ferrets are so blessed by having you. Very few people would do what you do for them. You are a very talented person.

A star is born! You have nothing to be embarrassed about, either. Plus, you were obviously having fun and felt relaxed enough to do it -- and now we have proof you do have the occasional lighter moment in your life now and then. :-)
