Waiting for the Tinmen

by Tricia

Update, I wrote this post earlier today after I cleaned up the house in anticipation of visitors (who would soon be making a mess of the house!), but it’s not going to happen. AGAIN!

We’re in the midst of a snowstorm and our expected guests just called to tell us that they wouldn’t be driving into Toronto from where they live out of town as the weather and driving conditions are just too bad. Boo Hoo … my tin ceiling has to wait again. Oh well, maybe next weekend.

I was looking forward to their visit. Read below to find out why.

I’m sitting here waiting for our friends to show up and help us work on our tin ceiling. I have a feeling we won’t get much work done tonight though.

My husband is a musician and so are the two men that are coming over for the weekend. I think this evening will be filled with the sound of acoustic and electric guitar and vocals.

As I sit here writing this post I’m listening to a song that was composed by one of the guys. He sent it on Thursday night so that Chris could listen to it and help him figure out how to do one part of the song different.

It sounds fantastic to me. It’s kind of folky mellow but has a beautiful rhythm and the words are catchy enough that before you know it you’re singing along to the Chorus. Who knows I could be listening to the next great hit.

    That’s an interesting post – and I like the way you wrote it too, drew a nice picture with the rain visuals.

    I’m a musician myself, and I have to say there’s no better feeling than creating music that others enjoy. The beauty of it is – anyone can make music! Nice little post, I found it inspiring.
