Summertime Playlist

It’s summer and that means it’s time to shake things up with the perfect summertime playlist!

Do you remember the show Ally McBeal? Her therapist talked to her about picking a song to make her feel better. It would sort of be her theme song for life. This idea has always intrigued me because music has always played a huge part in my life.

So I find myself turning to songs for changes in mood, changes in activity, and changes in season. Because summer was a little slow to start here this year, I decided that a summertime playlist was in order and have been assembling one for a while now. Even when it’s not summer outside, it’s going to be summer in my heart!
