This weekend ,for the first weekend since September, Cindy is off. Yesterday was filled with the family fun of me getting up and making pizza dough, followed with all of the fun that Mike making eight hand tossed pizzas brings.We ate at about three which is early for pizza day. Actually we usually wait for all eight pizzas to be out of the oven to eat but third from the last yesterday was my famous ( well we think so)seafood pizza that is not very good once it gets cold so we dug in while the last two were in the oven. Then after dinner we tackled our families " junk room " OK now most have a junk drawer ( which we also have and it needs cleaned too
:-( But we have without intent ended up with a junk room. This room is an add on to our house which was designated( when we moved in )as a room for kids computer, video games, my desk, and so on. The problem is that this room is not one in plain sight of visitors so we have stashed this and that there for awhile now and it all exploded over the holidays when we got a new TV that would not fit into our entertainment center, which had many many hide away drawers to stash things. Anyway now the back room was unable to even be walked through without hurting ones self. Plus I found a wonderful deal on a new couch and love seat that I bought and need to get delivered soon. We decided that since the old love seat is still in great shape ( the couch has sadly not fared as well)we would take it to this room in exchange for the leather recliner that has fared less well than the couch . In the process of starting this room last evening,Mike , the boys and I were doing OK while Cindy was catching up on some neglected chores when we found the boxes of old video tapes that were stashed when the old entertainment center left for the new with virtually no stashing room. As I sifted through the old tapes I found a few that Mike and I took a break to transfer to DVD(hey you have to watch to make sure that they transfer right) One just happened to be our wedding. It has been over nineteen years since we said "I will" so the tape was fragile.It was funny that at the time the armature skills of the videographer ( the father of Mike's Brother's at the time girlfriend who had a camera which he had used a couple times)seemed pretty good but with technology as it is today, what a difference ! We still watched the out of focus tape as my thoughts wandered.Wow if I knew then what I know now....... Surely I would have still gotten married but Oh the changes that would be made ! Anyway, I would go on and on but the junk room is only half done and so on and so forth so I must move on. But First, A Big THANK YOU Mr. Kay for the wonder memories you gave by taping our wedding. We are forever grateful !
