I’m not going to go into the “why” since it’s a stupid (and long) story, but last night, I re-watched something called “Star Wars”. I’m sure you may have heard of this film by now. If I had to guess I’ve probably not watched this movie in roughly ten yrs or more. To be frank, […]

The “Twitch” app and Bob Ross!
Bob Ross! Read something recently about a thing called “twitch” (which is now a part of Amazon). Apparently it’s an iPad/iPhone app, and it streams “stuff”. The thing that caught my attention is that they are now streaming a marathon of Bob Ross painting shows…ALL ~380 of them. The “twitch” app is free, and the […]
Peeve: Talking during a movie in the theater
I was having a conversation (with RML) last night, about people talking in a movie theatre – this person knows how I typically react, and mentioned to me they think I’m trying to be “confrontational” (by my asking the person talking in the theater, “could you please be quiet?”). No, I replied, I’m not trying […]

We then spent ~three hours walking around the outdoor animals, like the “Takin”, the Asian Wild Dog, the prairie dogs (she loved those little guys, popping […]
Need better ideas for outdoor Lailah activity

Need some great ideas, please! Otherwise, we’ll just go to the park one last time (before the “W” word […]
Renewing long lost friendships (again)
Took an opportunity to renew a long lost friendship today by meeting a friend of mine (LE) who I’d not seen in ~nine yrs, and had a really great lunch with them. I am so glad to have reconnected with them. [I cannot remember right now that saying about long lost friendships (with starting right […]
Brownies, spreading Peanut Butter on top
Eating just baked home made chocolate brownies and spreading on peanut butter is so messy, but in the end, it’s yummy (if you have some milk to go along with it). “Just sayin” Now, where did I put my napkin??
