What I'm Reading This Week #34

Hello you sassy beast!  Ready for another flip flappin' fantastic weekend?  Yes indeedy, Ally Sheedy. It's been a week of working ahead for me as I try to work on ideas for holiday posts.  I know, no one is ready for Christmas but spit balling stuff is actually getting me excited for the season.  I like to try to give myself the month of December off from writing new posts (except updating weekly happenings) so all I have to do is respond if needed.  It lets me take a little mental break during the holidays to try to enjoy what I can then hop back into the new year hopefully rested and ready to roll.   We did book our 30th anniversary trip, which is the same one we had to cancel this year and of course got travel insurance.  It's just nice to have something to hopefully look forward to and it makes you go "where the heck did 4 1/2 years go?" because it seems like just yesterday we were celebrating our 25th.  Do people even celebrate their 30t...

Hump Day Poll: It's the Best




What is a memorable scene from a movie that you love?

I know, I'm a sucker but it takes me back especially with those first few bars of If You Were Here by The Thompson Twins.

How about you?

    Whenever that first bar of The Star Wars theme kicks in I just can't help but feel like a little kid again.

    Planes Trains and Automobiles when Neal is on the train and memories of Del come to mind with the Power to Believe song playing in the background. There has yet to be a time when I have not cried. The loneliness of the holidays in addition to the actual scenes really jumps out at me.

      You know to have a tissue handy while the dogs look at you going "what's her problem?"

    One of my favorite all time movies is Better Off Dead. Pretty much any scene from that one. My high school best friend and I could quote that movie almost verbatim. I love the newspaper boy "TWO DOLLARS" and the scene where Lane's buddy is telling him "go really fast and if something gets in your way, turn".

      When the Mr and I were dating, he would always scream "TWO DOLLARS!" at me and I had no idea what he was talking about until much later! LOL
