Busy Busy

Today I face the coming week and am overwhelmed. I guess I need to think about my "eating a whale" mantra for a while. Today is filled with many violin lessons and a rehearsal for this weekend's wedding. Tomorrow, Thursday, and Friday, I substitute teach, prepare for the wedding, give lessons and prepare to play at church on Sunday. Saturday, I get a haircut, give lessons and play for a wedding. Sunday, I play for both services at church. Next Thursday, I leave for Kingsport (Yeah!!). One bite at a time.... One bite at a time....

Yesterday was grande. We had friends over for a bbq, but ate inside due to a rain storm. I should have taken pictures, but I forgot. We were glad this rain storm did not involve hail. Carole made homemade ice cream that was absolutely yummy. Erika brought homeade hummus that we LOVED. It was so nice to sit with friends and enjoy the evening before we jumped into this busy week.

Earlier in the afternoon, Laura and I went to WalMart for ice. When I returned, Tom said two neighbors came by for obscure reasons. We think they were fishing for an invite, but we wanted to keep the day low key. You can't resist the smell of Tom's bbq and you can smell it all over. I felt a little guilty not inviting everyone, but the day was nice just the way it was.
