Movie!

Last Saturday, Dian and I were going to Sam;s Club...she arrived and asked if I wanted to see a movie...I can't remember the last time I saw a movie and, of course, I said yes.  We went to see Pitch Perfect - and it was!  If you likie a cappellaa music this one is for you....It isn't barbershop but that's okay....it is about college a cappella  singing contests spotlighting male and female groups...We felt so good when it was over.......also a bit disappointed...GO SEE IT!!!


The rain has finally arrived..  we view it with mixed emotions....feels good to have the moisture...just not when it is time to walk the dog!!  I need three arms..one each for the leash, the umbrella and the cane...So...we just get wet...Haven't melted yet - so I guess it is okay...also have been really lucky to be able to go out in the "not raining" moments  once in a while during the day.

Like many of you, I am really sick of the political ads on TV and radio...I now press themute button..Then....People are not shy about expressing their political preferences on Facebook...Most of them I don't agree with - so also annoying.   Got the voters' pamphlet in the mail the other dayand actually read it!  Now ready for my mail-in ballot...Only three more weeks until it will be over and decided......Thank you very much!!!

I apologize for the spelling mistakes....I used spell check, as usual, but couldn't go back and change the errors....when I glide the mouse over the page, I don't get the arrow any more...just a little hand that won't do anything....  so....with that, I think I will sign off...Have a great day!

Fall is Falling1

,,,,and the fish are here...swimming upstream, in spite of a strong current going down river...I wonder if they have the strength to do this...but obviously they do....It is amazing to see all the red - and ugly, with their green snouts...fish in the river.  One could probably walk across the river on their backs - that is if they would stay still for that!  LOL

And...this morning I saw another blue heron at the river's edge....I wait until he takes off because he is so beautiful in flight!  and....there were over 20 ducks further on down the river's edge....who knew I would become a wild-life lover??!!!

I took Fritz to the vet because he was having trouble jumping up and down on/off the bed and couch...he has also been chewing on his legs....all this because he has a loose joint in his left "hip"...it goes in and out and when it is out is when he has the trouble and sort of limps...also when it is out, it hurts and that's why he licks and chews on his legs.   As long as he is eating and drinking normally he said not to worry...that's good news!!  He also got his rabies shot so he is now "good to go".  Next is a much needed trip to the groomer!

This last weekend was a bonanza as far as meals out went....Friday, I went with the "building ladies" to BJ's in Southcenter...It was really good - and really loud - and really busy.   None the less, I enjoyed it!  Saturday Dian picked me up and we went out to the Muckleshoot Casino to meet Jocelyn and a friend of hers (who never showed up)..... We had dinner and played a while...fun - but not lucky this time.  I so enjoy being with my kids!!!!!

Sunday, I went with Jocelyn to Michael's to pick up some stickers and some yarn for a project I am working on....I have finished one scrapbook - about my life - and am now working on one about the kids...I have Marcia done and am now working on Steve...and will do all of them - and their kids in this book/.  Should be pretty neat!

The upcomiing days are pretty empty as far as obligations go....hopefully I will get something done on my huge, long list I keep making....You-all have a great life!
