This girl is on fire!!!

Yes, I am a multi-tasker.  I think most women are.  Cleaning the kitchen, paying bills, fun with children, inspiring girls to believe in their own beauty, dancing to the "Hey, Hey, Hey Song" round the playroom, feeling the strength of a melody, snapping beans, picking up the house, juggling the needs of friends and men and children...yet finding a space for me...somewhere...in between. And then...there's melanoma....scans, treatments, fears....those who support you...those who forget...  But, either way, it is a lonely road that is beyond most to fully understand.  And, that's ok.  It won't stop me from dreaming, or playing, or belting out a tune, while facing my reality and chores....most days.  Scans yesterday were their usual fun, but CT's of neck, chest, and abdomen as well as an MRI of the brain were reported out clear.  So, back to Tampa for more anti-PD1 next week. Just one more thing to fold into my day.  Check out the video below and enjoy yours. - c

Alicia Keys - Girl on Fire


She's just a girl and she's on fire
Hotter than a fantasy, lonely like a highway
She's living in a world and it's on fire
Filled with catastrophe, but she knows she can fly away

Ohhhh oh oh oh
She's got both feet on the ground
And she's burning it down
Ohhhh oh oh oh
She's got her head in the clouds
And she's not backing down

This girl is on fire...
This girl is on fire...
She's walking on fire...
This girl is on fire...

Looks like a girl, but she's a flame
So bright, she can burn your eyes
Better look the other way
You can try but you'll never forget her name
She's on top of the world
Hottest of the hottest girls say

Ohhhhh oh oh oh
We got our feet on the ground
And we're burning it down
Ohhhhh oh oh oh
Got our heads in the clouds
And we're not coming down

This girl is on fire...
This girl is on fire...
She's walking on fire...
This girl is on fire...

Everybody stands, as she goes by
Cause they can see the flame that's in her eyes
Watch her when she's lighting up the night
Nobody knows that she's a lonely girl
And it's a lonely world
But she's gon' let it burn, baby, burn, baby


She's just a girl and she's on fire

    1. I love that song. Did you see her perform it with Maroon 5 at the Grammys? She played the drums. It was bad ass. :)
