Day 10: What are your Three Favorite Bands

I'm a few days behind.
Mom arrived Sunday for the week so I definitely missed Sunday.
Yesterday we just ran around and chilled out.
She's getting adjusted to the time change and being at my house.
Phoebe is falling in love with her while shooting me dirty looks like i've kept my mom hidden from her for her entire life.

Which actually makes me really happy.
She had a hard time bonding with D and I.
She's come a long way in healing to be able to bond with my mom, a complete stranger so quickly.

But back to my challenge!
Today is easy.
Three Favorite Bands.

1. O|A|R - Of a Revolution from Rockville Maryland
D and I first saw them at DisneyWorld at House of Blues in 2016. He really liked them and I was kind of meh. It was fun but it wasn't doing it for me. Then in September 2016 we road tripped down to Portland to see them again at the Crystal Ballroom. Again, it was fun, but I was meh on it. July 2017 they opened for Train and we went to the Gorge to watch.

Boom. It all clicked. Love them, downloaded almost every album and they are on a regular rotation on my playlist and Prime Music. Weird right?

2. Good Charlotte
I am not only a big fan of Joel and Benji Madden as singers/punk rockers, I really like them as people from what I see following them online. Joel is married to Nicole Ritchie and Benji married Cameron Diaz. I love the progression of their music over the years, they released an album that just the two of them put together a couple years ago that I love. They also released a Christmas son a few years back
Let the World be Still

3.Elle King - Love her song Exe's and Oh's, America's Sweetheart, and Make you Smile. D turned me on to her a few years back. Fun fact, She is the daughter of former SNL actor Rob Schneider.

So those are my top three favorite bands. :) They're the ones I sing out loud in the car with, they put me in a good mood, and they are constantly in whatever playlist I create whether it's for the gym, home, work, car, boat, it doesn't matter. They will always be on it.

Happy Tuesday!

SSYC... My First Official Yarn Crawl...

It's true... I've never actually participated in a yarn crawl or LYS tour. When I worked at So Much Yarn I had the pleasure of working the weekend of the LYS Tour but I've never done it. Well, the SSYC, South Sound Yarn Crawl covers 9 shops that aren't included for whatever reason in the Seattle LYS Tour that covers around 25 shops in the area. Maybe they're too far off the beaten path. It's not because they aren't in Seattle because there are shops way way way out of town that are included in the Seattle LYS tour. Whatever the reason, it's not important. What is important is that Mary and I both took Friday off and hit the road. I caught the 7:15 Ferry to Kingston, Arrived at Mary's about 8:00. Mary and I have the same china. Mine came from my Grandmother, her's came from her mom. Tried making friends with her fluffy dog Mae. Someday she'll come to love me, for now I'll respect her tenative personality and love her fro...

Remembering...

I don't know what karmic cosmic angels were flitting around today but they led me to the coffee aisle at the grocery store. More specifically it led me to the international moments. Which led me to thoughts of my grandmother. I loved her. I knew deep in my bones that she loved me. Grandma loved her International Moments coffees. Just smelling them. Holding the tin (though it's different now) Brings back memories of being with my grandma. She said these were her special treat and she'd make one for me to. Grandma made the best fresh blackberry pie. I know they were fresh because when she came to visit us in Bellevue she'd make us help her pick blackberries. She was the master of Christmas cookies, chocolate chip cookies and raspberry freezer jam. I make freezer jam from time to time and it reminds me of summer visits to Boise. Helping grandma in her garden, making sun tea, and smelling her roses. Sometimes, I buy a tin of Interna...
