* Don't dig for your favorite book, the coolest, the most intellectual. Use the CLOSEST.
HAPPY FRIDAY!
Sorry I'm late today everyone! I had a meeting this morning that I just found out about at 9pm last night. I was up late preparing and up early getting ready and then suddenly, I've got comments on last week's post! OOPS! Well, funny enough, the closest book to me right now is a song book I use with my elderly clients called Old Fashioned Songs. It was on the desk because I needed inspiration for my handout. It doesn't have a page 56 but I'll give you the 5th sentence from the last page...
We will dance the hoo-chee-koo-chee;
I will be your toot-see-woot-see.
Bonus points to anyone that can tell me which song this comes from! (NO GOOGLING! That's cheating!)

Well even though it sounds like a song Al Jolson would write, it's either Sterling or Mills. I think I'm dating my age here. lol

Hi!
Can's say what song but it does sound familiar. Mine is posted. Have a great day!

I tried linking up early this morning and F56 wasn't up yet, then I went to town and forgot to come back. Better late than never I guess.
