Well, we're all in the mood for a melody

So Saturday's exploration had to be postponed. It started out a little something like this....




lots of laundry and cleaning. When I was younger if you would have told me someday I would WANT to clean and it would actually be my choice and that i'd enjoy it, I would not have believed you; However, that is the truth today. When it's my house and my stuff there is nothing better than making it look the best that it can. A clean house is just the best feeling. BUT I will always hate laundry and with Taylor's work uniforms, and a dryer that isn't functioning properly, it never seems to end. Blah. So after I got the house looking good I was going to still head out for some photos, but then I had to help my mom out with a dead car battery. I gave her a jump and then followed her down to checker auto to get that taken care of. Never fun. By that time Taylor had actually beaten me home so I decided the photography would have to happen another weekend. I did however have a mini photo shoot with the lemonade I made on Sunday. Can you tell i'm desperate to start taking pictures again? I wish my work computer had photoshop on it, these are edited with microsoft paint :) and when I say edited I mean resized, and that's about it.




It was so good! Taylor was out working hard on the lawn sweating like crazy and I had to run to walmart, so I decided to pick up the stuff to make it while I was there. Best idea ever. Then while I was making it at home I got the idea to do the sugar around the rim of the glasses... scratch what I said before, this was the best idea ever. I dipped the glasses in lime juice first to make it stick and it was so yummy, try it! it added a sweet touch to the tangy lemonade. We drank way too much of this.

Yesterday. Taylor tuned the piano that his mom gave us. This was actually the piano that he learned to play the piano on. Where it all began. There is something so sweet about watching him sit there and play it, I think about little Taylor playing it and how I wish I knew him back then. He borrowed a tuning kit from his old roommate Trevor and jumped right in, he amazes me sometimes.


(Note the refreshing glass of lemonade atop the piano)

At last count I think he had done 16 keys and had 80 something left?? yikes. He wont stop until it's perfect.

So that brings us to Today. Back at work. Still not a lot of work to do. This is when people get bored and start to make up things to do. We are having a Wii mario kart tournament and "healthy snack day". I brought in some of my zucchini muffins which aren't really healthy at all. But if it has zucchini and nuts in it I say count it. They are already gone, I guess people liked them. Must find something interesting to do today.... I'm going to dinner with my friend Vicki tonight so at least I have something to look forward to. Until then... I am taking suggestions.

Tomorrow. Well not really tomorrow but some day in the near future I want to take the kayaks out. Taylor went and got them from his old house. That is something i'm really excited about doing. We went once when we were dating and had a blast. I remember how nervous I was to get in my swimsuit in front of him, and how I wanted to make sure and act tough like I wasn't completely scared about being horrible at it. So funny how things change. Where are good places to go kayaking in Ariona?
