She’d been humming in an off-key, as she dusted in the music room, moving things around a bit, but not too much. ‘Well, a job is just a job,’ she muttered to herself, as she decided to listen to the radio.
The music was rather bland, strange that it was tuned to that particular station. ‘What nonsense,’ she mumbled, while tuning further.
‘Ah that’s a bit better,’ as she started to hum again.
Her dusting became more vigorous and more animated.
The music felt almost alive.
Suddenly she grabbed the nearest guitar, and she shouted, ‘I’m going to boogie down!’

I remembered something after my original comment. In the 80s (when I was in my 20s) I used to play Billy Joel at full blast while I was cleaning my apartment. Loud music always helped me get motivated. Billy Joel is a thing of the past for me now, but upbeat gospel quartet music works just as well! 😂
