I have had a love affair with the Ford Mustang probably since the day I was born. My dad bless his soul integrated his baby blue 64 Ford Mustang into bedtime and traveling storiesand how it was a testing for the greatest year ever in Ford history which of course was the year of the 65’ Mustang. So many great things were introduced into the world in 1965! Today brings a smile to my face as it is National Mustang Day and the memories just make my heart smile, but it is also Blah Blah Blah Day… Which means you are encouraged to listen to those nagging words from your loved ones or friends, and to action them. ORRRR…. Blah, blah, blah is also used when you are uninterested in what someone is saying or feel the other person is nagging you… YOU choose…
