I’m loving water infused with lemon slices and a bit of mint from the container garden on my deck. Some people around here distastefully call it “weed water.”
It’s peach season! I love peaches. We ordered a few boxes of amazing peaches from a local ministry organization that was having a fruit sale. Year after year they bring us amazing peaches. I love peach slices, peach chunks, peaches with my plain yogurt, peaches on pancakes. We’ve made peach jam. Our local fruit CSA has delivered peaches as well.
We pulled out the spirograph, and I had so much fun sitting down and making fun designs with my kidlets. I loved my childhood spirograph, and I had so much fun playing with fancy colored pens.
When I began to play the cello, I felt frustrated because it was hard to find simple hymn melodies written out in bass clef. I always enjoy playing hymn melodies on secondary instruments, but I couldn’t just pull out a hymnal from my hymnal collection, because of course all those melodies are in treble clef. It’s too hard to read treble clef when playing a bass clef instrument. It really messes with your brain. There was nothing available in any of the music stores I searched. However, a few weeks ago I found this new collection, and it’s the perfect thing. Someone simply took the most common hymns out of a hymnal and wrote the melody out in bass clef in commonly used keys. I’ve been having so much fun playing these hymns for vibrato practice and review in my practicing, and best of all, the book is just a no frills, economic publication that gets the job done, plain and simple. The melodies will work for any bass clef instrument.
I’m loving sitting for a spell in my hammock in the just right, warm but not too hot August air. Ahhh! Usually I bring a book.
We’re down to the last days of waking up naturally in the morning at a reasonable time. I’m planning on loving every single morning until school starts.
