Ten Thoughts
Well it is Tuesday, and that means I must think. I hope I can.
1. It is community chorus concert week, which means it is crazy for me. Dress rehearsal was tonight, concerts are Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. It should be really good! My boss is directing this time. I will direct again at Christmas.
2. Savannah and Scott are both gone this week. They're in Gatlinburg on a mission trip. Sounds like she is painting a house and he is building a building. At least they are having fun. This is a good week for them to be gone, because with community chorus I wouldn't see much of them anyway.
3. I miss them like crazy, though! Brandon is here but he has been working (shock, yes, he has to work, mom is not giving him any more money! He is almost 19 years old and can work!)
4. I don't know why I'm watching the all-star game. Anyone wanna make bets on the AL winning yet again? No suckers in the crowd, huh?
5. I'm tired of eating. I'm tired of cooking. I'm tired of all the same old choices. I'm bored with food. Funny, but usually I eat when I'm bored! Now what do I do?
6. I went to water Scott's plants this afternoon. What is it with men? I bet you could walk into his house and tell that only a man lives there. Wouldn't take you 5 seconds! I leave for a week, there are no dirty dishes in the sink, I take the trash out, turn the air down, etc. Well, now his house is like that, but only because I was there this afternoon. I didn't even check the toilets!
7. My patio is almost done! My cheap labor is gone for the week, but as soon as he's back he has promised to finish. I'm good- it is so nice now and I can use it! Just needs the finishing touches to be perfect! Well, then I can plant things around it and it will be perfect.
8. Today is the first day in a week and a half that my shoulder hasn't hurt. I don't know if it was rafting or rides at Dollywood, but the muscle between my shoulder and my backbone has been so knotted up I couldn't even sleep well. Hopefully, it is going away now.
9. I mowed the grass this afternoon for the first time in two weeks. It finally rained on Monday, so it actually grew. Amazing to me how a little rain just makes everything grow, almost overnight. Including weeds. Which reminds me, I'm out of roundup.
10. Tomorrow, I'm going shopping. Gonna hit the consignment shops and thrift stores looking for a table and chairs for the patio. I also have to get Scott's check and take it to the bank. And I really need to find the boy some things for his dorm room.
Wow, I did come up with 10 things- ok, time to quit thinking and head toward bed!

Pigeon Forge TN
This is at the putt putt place.
We had so much fun with Susan (Abby) and her family. First we met them at the motel, then went out for supper and putt putt. The next morning, we had breakfast and enjoyed a day at Dollywood. Susan is just as neat in person as she is online- and she has a really fun family!

Oconoluftee River
Our mission work is done and it is on to a day of play! This afternoon, we're in the river. This is a beautiful place in the middle of the Cherokee reservation. Tomorrow is rafting down the Nantahala and Friday, we meet Susan and her family at Dollywood! I'm gonna need a nap on Saturday!
