Memphis (Moody) Blues

Tomorrow Dave and I will be heading west to Memphis, Tennessee!

One of our favorite musical groups, The Moody Blues, will be performing an outdoor concert there. We love to hear this group as many of the originals are still up there singing. This will be our third concert in 6 1/2 yrs. together.....I guess that makes us "groupies"!

We plan on stopping at Neely's Bar-B-Que enroute and pick up our dinner there. The Neely's are a now-famous couple who appear on the Food Network's cooking show every day. They make everything sound so mouth watering...can't wait to try some of it out.

We got a great rate on a room at one of the Tunica casinos...so, Saturday will be the day that we both win a huge jackpot and never have to worry about money again....

Ahhhhh....

I am about to learn how to play Mah Jong with the girlies. It is apparently a bit terribly complicated, so we are set for four-- three hour lessons starting the 14th of this month.

I had to laugh at one of the girls who decided to try and find a book titled: Mah Jong for Dummies. When she found out that there wasn't such a thing, she then asked for Mah Jong for Idiots! Still no luck.

Should be an interesting experience and may have to involve copious amounts of wine drinking...

I began to think that I was losing my mind the other day when I was quickly visiting some of my favorite blogs. Suddenly I began to hear this eery music in my head. I muted the tv thinking that it might have been from that. I finally decided that I had inhaled too much clay dust down in the dungeon (studio) and it had caused me to hear things.

Luckily, my sanity was saved as I realized that the sounds were background music coming from the blog that I was reading.

phew.

I worked late into the night on my pottery last night...but, I was determined to get this one bowl finished up. By the time I got to bed, I crashed and hardly remember putting my head on the pillow.

Hard work and concentration=the best sleeping pill around.

Much to do...make the most of your day today!
