    Favorite feel good songs
    Well, I spent last night in L&D with one patient and our new OB/GYN (umm he's old enough to be my father so don't get any ideas, LOL). Anyway, we sat around picking out some songs that make us feel good... he picked out a song called Jeannine (not the same spelling of my name) that is a jazz song he likes. My most recent feel good song is...

    YouTube - Darius Rucker - Alright

    How about you?

    Yes, I'm bored... long night, not tired yet, waiting for the family to wake up for a soccer game, after the game it's off to bed for me. So, I guess I'm just wasting time and space. :p

    We need all the music we can get to start filling our nights. Looking forward to your suggestions.

    What do you define as "Feel good" J_9?

    Ones that make you feel like you want to party?
    Or ones that you can just mellow out to and think happy thoughts?

    Doesn't matter. Feeling good is what is in the eye of the beholder at the moment. Whatever makes you feel good... party music, romantic music... whatever, there's no limit here.

    The mood y'all are in now is how we were feeling at work last night. Great way to start your day and a great way to end mine.

    Party on... keep the tunes a coming... I'm going to check the backs of my eyelids for a couple of hours. I'll check in later to see what has transpired.
