Battle Of The Bands

Saturday I was in my office cleaning

The windows were open

There was just the slightest ocean breeze flowing through…

It was lovely

And you know what goes best with dusting and ocean breezes?

Music

So I paired my phone up to my speaker and tapped my ALL TIME FAVS playlist

Ahhhh… A LIttle Dive Bar In Dahlonega by Ashley McBryde

Yeah…

But then I heard different music coming from across the hall…

Seriously???

Mr. Redoux was in the Guest Bath installing the faucet

And he had paired his speaker up

And there was Uncle Lucius bouncing off all the hard surfaces in there and banging its way into my lovely House Cleaning Music!

So I cranked mine up as high as it would go

Then he slammed my door closed…

I read a blog post by a couple who does DIY projects together and they were sharing a playlist they had made of the best songs to crank up and do projects to

And I laughed out loud…

Really? There are couples out there who actually have the same taste in music??

Huh….

Even way back when we were dating Mr. Redoux called my music ‘house cleaning music’

You see, I liked Kris & Rita

And he liked Loggins & Messina

I liked Charlie Rich

And he liked Charlie Daniels Band

I had 8-tracks (remember those??) of Neil Diamond in my little Vega

He had Average White Band blaring in his Nova muscle car

Sometimes I wonder how did we ever end up together??

How is it that we’ve been together for 45 years now??

Well…

It’s the age-old cliche that so many romance novels are written about…

Opposites really do attract

UPDATE:

I just went into the other room where he’s working

And he’s listening to MY playlist!

Go figure!

Okay, I take it all back…
