Monday, Sweet Monday

I've been battling a toothache all weekend. I have no idea how anyone becomes addicted to Vicodin---All it did for me was make me nauseous; I'll take the toothache. So, anyway, it's Monday, now, so I will be heading back to the dentist later today. Wish me luck!

In the meantime, I like to start Mondays with something cheery, so here's a clip of Kendall, giving us a little concert tonight after dinner. She got a ukulele for her birthday and has been teaching herself how to play it. She knows how to read music, but other than a stint with a trombone in 6th grade and some piano lessons in grade school, she hasn't played an instrument, so she's proud of herself, and we love listening to her sing, so I thought I'd share a little bit to kick off your week :)


And, if that's not enough for you, here's also Somewhere Over the Rainbow!

Have a sweet week! :)

  1. Although there is nothing cheery about a toothache, Kendall's voice certainly is. Best of luck for you with that tooth. My visit to the dentist is Tuesday.

  2. So, while this song is amazing, it may not be the best for her to learn (cause of the cussing), but this lady does ukulele amazingness.

  12. She's doing a great job learning the Ukulele! Over the Rainbow was just made for the ukulele - she did a wonderful job.

    Hope you feel better and have a relatively painless procedure at the dentist. Toothaches make me miserable and grumpy.

  14. What a voice, especially on Rainbow. Look for her to appear next season on American Idol. And she actually smiled with her teeth at the end of that song.

  17. Be grateful it made you nauseous - better than addicted! I'm with you on the nausea though. Fingers crossed all is well with your teeth now. And Kendall? She is not only beautiful, but oh so talented. I love it!

  18. Good luck with the tooth! I'll send you some whiskey - best thing ya know!

    I saw Paul McCartney play on in concert. He played "Something" in honor of George Harrison. The next weekend I went out and bought one so I could learn to play it like he did. I did. I play guitars and keyboards, so it was easy for me to figger out! Good for her - sounds great!

  19. Once when I was visiting my mother I had a tooth ache and she gave me vicodin and I swear I was high for 2 days. I don't remember how much I took but it was such a horrible experience I never want to take it again.

    What a lovely voice your daughter has, something about the ukulele is so endearing and easygoing. Perfect after dinner concert.
