No Good Deed, etc.

 You ever sign up for something that turns out to be just a wee bit more than you thought you were signing up for? I spent 6 1/2 scrubbing a house. 

(Sadly, it is not mine.) 

Still, I got to spend the day with my sister. 

(Sadly, it was not her house either.) 

Saddest of all? We did not get it all done.

Oh, PS: Lemonade: 1 cup lemon concentrate, 3/4 cup sugar, Add 2 quarts water, throw in a heaping helping of sour cherries. Refreshing.

    1. It is very good. We almost always have a pitcher in the fridge. Except for right this minute. I drank it all and was too tired to make more.

    1. It certainly is a thirst quencher. I prefer iced tea, unsweetened with two lemon slices, but unfortunately, that's not an evening drink, unless I'm planning to stay up all night.

    1. My own house needs a good clean at this point. But since you've just moved in, how bad can it be...yeah. You're on, sistah.

  8. I don’t usually sign up for them but somehow I get volunteered by others and have a hard time saying no at that point.

    1. My sister called, I said I'd help her. I have nobody to blame but myself.

  9. Well, at least you got to hang out with your sister! I always enjoy when my sister and I do something together. Now your sister owes you, in case you have a big job where she can help you! :)

  10. How far is lemon concentrate from lemon juice? I got a whole tree that has finally fruited and those fruit are WHOPPERS. I know we have a large jar of sour cherries because V keeps threatening to make cherry pie one day.
