I will survive!

[sheddie]

Have you ever danced or sang to gloria gaynor singing this and it has given you strength or even sang it at kareoke, i have and cleared a bar once! You've got to laugh!! Once I was afraid I was petrified, thinking I could never live without you by my side, spent so many nights thinking how you did me wrong, then I grew strong, I learnt how to get along, but now you're back........I WILL SURVIVE!!!

[Crocus]

Cleared a bar - goody goody gumdrops Sheds - I wish I was there! :cool: Had a nice giggle now, not at you, but along with you. :) Yes dear Sheds you will, because you are a survivor! :)

[dinger]

Yes that's us Sheddy we get knocked down but we get up again .Words of another song my son plays from time to time .

[CountryLady]

Chumbawumba I think Dinger. Yes indeedy don't you just feel empowered by singing the words (which I would only do in private, my singing voice stinks!).

[sheddie]

Why worry about your singing voice it is good for the soul, once I was listening to the radio and Woman was playing, I was ironing at the time and kicked one leg up and over the ironing board and landed up on my back, happy memories how my mum laughed!X

[CountryLady]

LOL Sheddie! I don't care how it sounds to me but I assure you, you wouldn't want to hear it!!

[sheddie]

Now I do! Doe a deer a female deer, ray a drop of golden sun, me a name I call myself, far a long long way to go do ray me far so la te doe doe doe. Come on sing up countryLady X

[CountryLady]

So a needle pulling thread, la a note to follow so, te a drink with jam and bread, are you covering your ears yet?

[dinger]

Eat your heart out Charlotte Church You are just being modest countrylady What a lovely voice

[sheddie]

Ok I take your point CountryLady please put a sock in it!X

[Crocus]

Sheds! ...... leg over ironing board and landed on your back - goodness - that must have caused quite a laugh or two! Hope you didn't get hurt!!!

[eleanor2]

[CountryLady]

[Katelb]

[CountryLady]

[Crocus]

Yes, growing up a bit. Sometimes we must do a bit of it don't you think. Where kids and a life are concerned. Having said that, one needs the child in one's self to tackle kids and life! xx
