Sweet music to my ears brings a warmth to my heart, that my green friend craved with love

No time to reply to comments today sorry everyone, I'm exhausted! Yesterday we went to a small party at a friend's place, I prefer socializing in small crowds. The main reason for this little party was to introduce Mr. Pix3l's brother to Ms. H, a friend of Manatee girl and Nobbie. I don't think I've mentioned Manatee girl, she is the girlfriend of Nobbie and no it's not her real name. Ms. H is very shy and didn't want to do a blind date so we decided to introduce them and feed Ms. H lots of liquor to mellow her nerves. I think it worked out even though she didn't join my bro-in-law to the club that a friend was DJing for reggae night, she almost said yes. I don't think it was because she wasn't interested, she had to move in the morning and this was at 1:30ish in the morning. Mr. Pix3l and I didn't get home till 2:30 a.m. and we woke up at 9 a.m. to take Lil' Pix3l to her swimming lesson and work on clearing the fallen willow and mend the fence. So I'm amazed I am still up and not comatose right now!!

We are still on a boil water advisory, still no drinking, brushing your teeth and washing veggies and other food with the tap water. I'm hoping that this clears up by Monday, I am getting sick of boiling water for drinking and stuff and buying bottled water is out of the question. Not only is it expensive, so many places are sold out because we haven't been able to use tap water straight since Thursday.

The front yard is in much better condition, but still needs a lot of work! We had this guy who was driving by stop and ask us if he could have the big chunks of the trunk of the willow if we didn't have plans for it. He makes celtic harps and violins and he would us the wood to carve out a celtic harp from each large block (I think there is two) and we said yes. I would love to own a celtic harp even if it has been years since I last played an instrument. He brought over a trailer to put the wood on and he is also helping remove the debris from the willow. I would like to stay in touch with him because I'd love to see what the harps will look like once they are completed. I'm really happy that my favourite tree will be put to good use!!

Hope everyone's weekend is going well, enjoy! :-]
