"Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star"

Fairy Ari and Studly Mr. T put on a little performance for us. After 6 months of lessons they can finally play an entire song. We rather enjoyed their chosen fashion attire.

They've been invited to play "I am a Child of God" for the primary program this fall. I think I may have to choose their outfits for that performance.

A Most Excellent Mess

Someday I'm sure I will laugh about this - so halfway through the clean up I decided to document it because it was just SO unbelievable. Click on the photos for a good close up Plus I'm keeping with my laundry theme..................

My lovely washer that tends to get a little exuberant when spinning clothes (it's not quite level due to a retarded floor underneath) and it occasionally throws the soap off the top.

This time it just so happened that the bottle was full and it landed in such a way that it knocked the lid off and flooded the entire floor.

I took approximately 48 hours to come up with a plan to clean it up without pulling a Brady Bunch Episode of smothering bubbles. I scraped with a spatula, wiped with dry paper towels and mopped with Lysol wipes - able to avoid attack of the bubbles. My floor will have a sticky layer until about 2058. My plan of action is for all of you just in case this ever happens to you - then I'll laugh.

Just thought I'd Air Some Dirty Laundry

I never would have guessed how the past would repeat itself. I have nightmares about our laundry room growing up on Greenway Drive. Piles & Piles of dirty laundry, never ever done......and yet 30 years later on Southfork Drive I am living the nightmare. Anyone else? (my blog overall is one of happy and fun occasions - but every so often I will have to "air some dirty laundry" lest I create an illusion of Planet Merriment) My friend Cherie claims laundry gives her a pretty good impression of ETERNITY. But I think that only applies to the eternal realm of the Underworld.
