Midweek Check In
Happy Hump Day to you and yours! Anyone else having a case of the "short week feels longer than a regular week" yet or does that hit tomorrow? Unfortunately, Monday afternoon the tweens/teens found the pool not too far from the abode so we got to listen to the hootings of young, insecure males attempting to show off for both girls and their fellow brethren. I'm really hoping this is just some cousins visiting or something for the weekend because I know of only one teen boy here and he's a loner. Is pool season over yet? It always starts strong like this and then typically dies down within a month but what an irritating month it is until then. We did some more work out on the patio Monday. It was going to be the last sunny day before two days of forecasted rain...again. I made sure to get the new picket painted and hung to cover this delightful sight: When the picket was off, I could see how bad the support 2x4's looked on the fence. ...

ReplyDeleteBig mistake...HUGE!
DeleteWhenever that first bar of The Star Wars theme kicks in I just can't help but feel like a little kid again.
ReplyDeleteHeck, I even teared up when we saw it on that John Williams special last week. Modern day Mozart!
DeletePlanes 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.
ReplyDeleteYou know to have a tissue handy while the dogs look at you going "what's her problem?"
DeleteOne 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".
ReplyDeleteWhen 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
