Hi,
The weather for today was rain, all day long. As a result, it was a slow day at the Big Brown House. We had an extended visit from a friend and that brought sunshine.
The 'Easy Monday' song was just that for some of you. Today we'll take it from the top so you know where you are in the lyrics. Here's a major hint: It's a day that's not today or tomorrow. Oh, and it came from across the pond:
"__, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in __."
This morning there was a brief window when the rain turned into a slow drip. That's when we took the dogs out for their exercise. After that, it did that slow, steady kind of rain all day. Daku enjoyed looking out on the yard. There is something hypnotic about light rain, especially when looking out at lots of green. Unfortunately, it can also make one sleepy.
Lots of Green
Our friend Atom came over for lunch. This was the first time we've been able to hear about her adventures in China. She spent the last six months at a language school outside of Beijing. There were young people from Russia, Indonesia, Korea, Japan and Thailand and she made lots of friends. They had classes in the mornings and the afternoons were for study. She said her biggest accomplishment was learning how to bargain in Chinese.
After lunch she and Lisa looked at Lisa's cast acrylic prints and arrived at names for the new pieces. Atom has been involved with helping Lisa come up with names that would relate in Thai as well as English.
Tomorrow we will go out to the frame factory to pick up Lisa's prints. A morning drive in the country after the rain should be nice. I'm assuming it won't be raining, silly me.
Have a Happy Tuesday.
Peace,
Danny
