Country Music-Country Comfort

As you all have experienced, I've been a little blue lately.

Country music has always been my favorite and when I'm feeling down. I can usually find a song on 97.7 The Wolf, or 650 KMTI to cheer me up.

So, Today, you get a list of songs I love brought to you by the country artists who complete my life.

1. Miranda Lambert. She sings GREAT angry songs. and some really awesome slower, inspirational ones too.

I love this new song Miranda released not too long ago. It's such a great song to sing along to!


This was the song that made me love Miranda. She's kind of a bad ass. 
(excuse the language, but she is.)


And then there is this song.  I love it. It makes me cry. It makes me smile. The other day my brother and I were talking about what would happen to the house we grew up in in about 100 years when our parents don't live there anymore.  He mentioned that we should rent it out, and it kind of just broke my heart. I have so many memories there. So much love is in that house. I don't know that I could let random strangers live there and trash it?  Any way. Love this song

There are a few other songs from Miranda that I love, but I feel like I've spent long enough on her.

If you're interested a few other songs I would recommend from her Gun Powder and Lead, White Liar, and this duet with her hubby Blake Shelton You're The Reason God Made Oklahoma.

They are SOOOOO FREAKING perfect together.

That brings us to our next group who are So right.  Thompson Square.

This couple is so great!  I love them. They were married before they got famous and they will continue to be married FOREVER!

This song, Are You Gunna Kiss Me or Not? Was the song that made me LOVE them. I saw them when they opened for Lady Antebellum in Salt Lake City last February on Valentines and didn't really know who they were until I heard this song.  LOVE IT!

This life would kill me if I didn't have you. How true this is. Keith keeps me grounded. I love him and I'm sure this life would kill me "If I Didn't Have You."

This is just a GREAT song. Listen to it.

Next Country Crush is Hunter Hayes. Are You Kidding ME? This KID IS SMOKING!

I love him, and I want my children to be just like him. I want them to sing and make me swoon with pride!


I love when this song comes on, I just sing and sing. "Somebody's Heartbreak"

Yum, "Wanted"

And finally. "Storm Warning"

Next is Taylor Swift. I've loved her since the beginning, you've all heard her songs so I'll just give you the best right this second. Because its really fun to sing to.

"I Knew You Were Trouble"

Finally. We have Tim. Tim McGraw I mean.  Oh Timmy.

Oh Timmy Darling, I've loved you forever.

Tim and Faith are such a great couple. I love when they sing duets

Oldie but a goodie!

Really I love when Tim sings duets at all.



Especially when its with T-Sizzle and Keith Urban!

And I'll leave you with one final song!

My favorite woman singing about my favorite man.  "T-Swifts Tim McGraw"

Passionate, Loving, Persistent.

*{DISCLAIMER}* This post nay get a little "ranty" if you are offended... Sorry I'm not sorry :)  Keep reading.

Why the title?  Cause those are three words that I would use to describe myself.  There are a few things that I feel VERY passionately about, on these things.  You REALLY don't want to mess with those things.

Those things are:
1. My Family.
2. Breast Cancer.
3. My Family.

Mix those things together and you have a WHOLE mess on your hands. I recently received one of those stupid facebook messages that always go around this time of year. "Post this country if your birthday is in this month, and then the date (23) is the number of months" or some such nonsense.  and then it says "Shh Don't tell the boys... it will spread awareness for breast cancer."

Well I was fed up with this message because A. If you can't tell anyone what the message is for, then it is not really spreading awareness right? B. How does posting "I'm going to Germany for 23 Months spread Breast Cancer awareness? and C. Boys can get breast cancer too. So keeping them out of the loop is excluding people who can be affected.  I posted a status about it.


Kids. Those silly messages that are going around "I'm going to Germany for 23 Months." They're silly. They don't show awareness for breast cancer. They are just obnoxious. Wanna do some good? Participate in a Breast Cancer Fundraiser. Contact Susan G. Komen for the cure and see what you can do there. Run a race for the Komen foundation. Donate to a cancer research center. THOSE things make a difference. Posting a nonsense status about a nonsense vacation doesn't do ANYTHING.

Thats all.

Love you all, Just had to vent



Surprise?! People got pissed.  Cause some people are looking for a fight.

Well like I said, I am passionate about a few things in life.  If you know me, you know that my Mom had breast cancer a few years ago.  And you may also know that it was the hardest time on my entire life.  To see my best friend and hero struggle like that was absolutely horrid.

I have done a lot in the last 4 years to spread breast cancer awareness and help the awareness/cure cause as much as I could.  I had a yardsale and donated 100% of the proceeds to the Susan G. Komen Foundation. I have also participated in multiple Susan G. Komen Race for the Cures. as well as other cancer foundations like Relay for Life.

This, I am so passionate about.

For someone (who shall remain anonymous-because I'm not a bitch) to tell me on facebook that maybe some if us you know like to do that kind of stuff. it's pretty rude to just post stuff like that on face book. I did it and IM sorry I don't have time to do fundraisers, but seeing how my grandma got breast cancer and I'll most Likly have it yeah IM going to post something about it

Just don't.  Just don't post that.  Just let me say that I think its stupid.  Just keep scrolling, cause if you don't.  I GET PISSED.  and let me tell you, I can outsmart, and outspeak you.

So.  Before you repost these stupid games.  Just don't.  Don't believe me?

I researched (because I don't like to be wrong) it and what do you know, people who currently have Breast Cancer, as well as survivors think these posts are dumb.

this post is from a person who has stage 4 breast cancer.  The title?  Breast Cancer is NOT a facebook game.  I agree.

So I'll leave you with this.
This is what I told anon. after they posted the last comment.:

Then post Check Yourself  Early detection is the key. My Mom had breast cancer as well and I am an a Breast Cancer Awareness Advocate to the max. There are other ways to show that you are aware, and to spread awareness. Posting a bogus status about a mysterious vacation doesn't show awareness. Unless you know about the message. It is just a silly status. It doesn't help anyone at all. Thanks for your time.

Don't forget to follow ;)
