Music

Is music an important part of your day?

Not as much as it used to be.  I used to always have the radio going or some kind of music playing during the day.

Do you listen to music all day, or just during certain activities?

I love LOUD music with a good beat while I am cleaning the house.  It keeps me motivated and moving.  It is a good thing I do not have neighbors when I am cleaning house, I am sure they would complain about the noise.

What is your favorite type of music?

I like country music, contemporary, pop, soft rock, classical, etc.  I think the only genre I can't stand is rap music.

Do you find music distracting or soothing?

I usually find it soothing.  Just this past Sunday I spent the morning finding songs/videos on youtube that I needed to hear and posted many on my blog.  I find music speaks to me in such a different way than other forms (reading, conversations, etc).  It definitely soothes my soul.  :o)

Do your kids like music?

They love music.  Jordan is more about the lyrics of a song and if it has a good story or message.  Deanna is more about if it has a good beat, and can you dance to it.  They both have iPods and account with Itunes and it has been great to have these tools/resources for them to collect and listen to music.

Do you keep music playing while you sleep?

I used to.  It used to help me get to sleep and stay asleep.  When I was a teen I used to listen to the TOP 10 AT 10 to go to sleep, although it wasn't very often I was awake to hear what the #1 song was for the day.
