Finally Sunny

It is finally sunny after days of rain.  Melanie has decided that she wants to sort of walk - she doesn't like to be left behind in the front yard.  So it takes us 15 minutes to walk two houses down.  At least we aren't doing this in the cold rain.


I made iced tea before I left to take the dogs out.  The tea bags are steeping in the pitcher. 


I come back in and start the laundry.  Mom calls to me from the library.  I go to see what she wants.  She is holding a coffee cup and says "I got some of your iced tea and it is terrible." 


"You know, Mom, that the tea bags were still in the pitcher and it hadn't been infused with water."  


"Yes, I saw that.  I moved the tea bags over to get the tea and it is still terrible."


I am laughing a bit while I write this.  When did she become completely addled? 


I will make her a drink - now she wants some wine - and a snack.  Too bad I don't drink wine.
