So, Daddy-o, we gave Cade his own collection of CD's to listen to on his boombox in his room. (We put the boombox in there so he can listen to his violin CD when he is learning a new song.) His favorite CD is "Tresury of the West," so this Saturday morning I woke up to "Ghost Riders in the Sky." I went into his room and he and Heath were standing on the bed, each holding their own version of a "Ghost Rider" over their head (one with Woody and Bullseye, the other with muppets) and acting out the song. Their second favorite song is "Rawhide." At least they have good taste...
Despite the western festivities, we are having a crisis, and I have just told Heath, for the third time: "Go find that cheese!" Apparently, he has lost his morning string cheese "somewhere" in Cade's room. I do not want to find it by odor later, so I am withholding blueberry waffles until the cheese is produced. Am I grateful that he did not also lose his morning banana? Yes.
Finally, Kyle finished laying the dinig room floor last night, so we can finally eat indoors (just in time, as it was getting kind of cold on the deck). Kyle is very tired this morning, which makes Eddie happy--he likes to keep at least one human in bed with him as long as possible in the morning. Sometime he will even try to trap you, pinning the covers down around you.

HHMMM - Blueberry waffles - I want one! I never make pancakes or waffles here unless we have guests - 'cause I'm the only one who likes them. It seldom seems worth the effort to make them just for myself.
I get my fill of blueberry pancakes at the Long Valley cafe Sunday morning special. (Are you ready M&M?)
OH yes, Ev, I AM READY (well, ready emotionally speaking, but not packed yet - have to get back from the Ranch (23rd) then have my last day at the Inn (25th) before I can start packing :-) & I know MIKE will be, too, re seeing you all, going to AZ AND perhaps your aforementioned cafe!!- YESS!! I LOVE those kind of places - maybe they will have a post card I can get & send?? ;-) !!!
Win, I remember Darcy givng Amy a boom box at about CADE'S AGE along with HER "OLD" aMY grANT cd'S & HOW she ENJOYED THEM & GOT HER friends INTERESTED, TOO! - (arrg caps!)
Back when Darcy was about to turn 10, Gram Harriet wanted to get her a radio "so she could listen to her own music" something that hadn't occurred to me/us & it was indeed appreciated! Darcy 'fessed YEARS later that she used to listen to CLASSIC music on it but didn't tell her friends! LOL!
Marilyn,
I've often wondered - why don't you just push the CAPS LOCK key, backspace, and retype?
Your sweet brother
Dear "Sweet Brother" ;-)
- Because I am a hunt & peck "typist" & it takes ME such a LONG time to type ANYTHING, I can't afford the time to redo it!
Signed,
"Your Accomplished Adoring Sister"
PS. If you wonder WHY, I'll explain. - You see, year after year band was scheduled for the same period & since we all knew how "accomplished" (HA!) a musician I was, dropping it was a definite "no no". - Besides, there were a lot of cute boys who liked to come over to my section to check out my cute lil soprano sax ;-) SOOO, knowing I'd be "handicapped" for life not being able to type, in the 8th grade, Mom signed me up for a summer school typing class. - BUT it was BEAUTIFUL out, with sunshine streaming in Dana Jr. High's massive windows & the class was FULL of cute boys, & to this very day, I have "paid" for it! SIGH!
