I Made a Ding!

It is a small one, but I did it!



You can actually see the floor! Well some of the floor. In making my ding I found....



that the bitty one has not just limited her artwork....



....to just the walls!

Oi Vey!

I do have a funny true story for you though.

There was a man who played the bagpipes. He was asked by a funeral director to play at a homeless man's funeral. The ceremony was graveside at a pauper's cemetery. The director gave him directions to the service, but the man was unfamiliar with the backwoods of Kentucky and got lost. Being a man he didn't stop for directions.

An hour late, he finally arrived at his destination. No one was there except for 2 men digging. He got out of his car and walked to the men. He looked in the hole and saw they had already put the lid on the vault. The men were taking a lunch break so he asked if they minded if he played. The men told him "no" so he went to his car and got out his bagpipes.

The bagpiper played Amazing Grace like he had never played before over the open hole. When he was done, the bagpiper and the two men digging were in tears. The man thanked the two workers and walked to his car. On the way to his car, he heard one of the men comment.

"I have never seen anything like that before and I have been digging septic fields for 20 years!"

Have a great Wednesday!
