the old man is snoring.
It has been raining all day. A steady, hard, cleansing rain. Unfortunately this rain has revealed a leak in our roof. We have an ice cream pail slowly filling on the kitchen floor. The Music Man will crawl up into the attic to have a look-see when he gets home from work. It's all rather dreary.
Monkey and I took a drive in the rain to the next town over this morning to go to the mall. Unfortunately this revealed that the local bookstore has closed. Dreary indeed.
On the bright side, Monkey has been drinking some cooled-off decaffeinated green tea out of a porcelain mug with a bright pink straw and reciting "Mmm, something smells good", a line from a very poorly written adaptation of Goldilocks and the Three Bears. It all balances out, I guess.

That's great - about the tea and smelling good things. Not so great about the leaky roof and the bookstore. (So maybe when we open our bakery we need to put in a bookstore next door?)
The LG has recently been enjoying some of my "stomach-calming" herbal tea as well. I thought she would hate it but it seems not. Hooray for our little tea drinkers!
Hope your roof gets patched up soon!
