i can see clearly now

 i was about to put a DVD in this morning and a CBS morning news show was doing a year-end event. it included those we had lost this year, one of them being johnny nash, who sang 'i can see clearly now'. so i went to find the song on youtube. i am more partial to 'ooh child' by 5 stairsteps, but both are good songs. in terms of them being uplifting and positive. the song was a number one hit in 1972. the video i found was from 'the midnight show'. when i was out and about i paused when i heard a song off in the distance by a dumpster, i think. it was 'leather and lace' by stevie nicks and don henley. i am thankful i got going early on laundry, as i was able to finish it around midday. it meant i caught most of a pro football game on TV i had wanted to see, bears were playing the jaguars in jacksonville. bears won and control their destiny on making the playoffs. right after breakfast was eaten i put in the DVD i was planning to watch, it was the charlie brown christmas specials. there was the original from 1965, and a second one that was done in 1992. after the bears game was rams-seahawks. i laid down and fell asleep for a while. so i didn't see muvh of this second game. i had dinner and cleared out emails, eventually watching 'big bang theory' reruns as 'the simpsons' wasn't on fox tonight. then i called my dad and this time it went through. during the call he had the news on and there was something about the music city bowl in nashville being canceled as there are covid issues for missouri, iowa's opponent in the bowl game. these are crazy times we live in. i had already ordered a bowl game button from the hawk shop and hopefully it will still arrive. late in the evening i went on a walk and picked up 41 cents.
