Do You Have "IT"?

A bunch of us went to the Elsinore tonight to watch a silent movie called "IT". It was filmed in 1927, it was so fun!! Clara Bow was the lead and lead she did....she was so cute, and those eyes!! Gary Cooper played the newspaper reporter (Ardith noticed this right off, way to go Ardith!). Gary Cooper wasn't even in the credits, I guess he was to new to Hollywood. There was a gentleman who played the organ through out the movie, he did a wonderful job. We were all leaving when he began playing "Phantom of the Opera". Who can leave and not listen to this!!! I for one cannot! We all sat down again and enjoyed this.....what a great end to a great night!!!!

HAIR

I got a much needed haircut this afternoon! It feels so good and I feel like a different person. When I'd look in the mirror, all I could think of was how much I hated no shape in my hair. I cut my own bangs twice just because I was looking like an old English sheep dog. I couldn't see!! Here is to beauticians everywhere, this diet Pepsi is for you!!! ;-)

Sunshine

It's sunny out today, maybe because it's my birthday! Today I'm not married to an older man anymore, we've caught up in age. For six months out of the year, I enjoy teasing Ivon about being so much older than me, then BAM, that's over with! There is an upside to being 61, I'm that much closer to getting the big bucks from Social Security (that is if there is anything left). One can only hope. I'm wiser now than I was, (but I forget a lot of things). I've earned every grey hair on my head (that I cover with hair dye), the wrinkles on my face are out there for everyone to see, I can't do much about that but embrace them (even if I had the money to do something about them, I don't want to end up like Joan Rivers and have my naval under my chin!) Life is wonderful and I just enjoy my little corner, doing my own thing and being happy!!

Haiti

Those poor people in Haiti, another aftershock that was almost as strong as the original quake. The upside I guess is that help is there and supplies are arriving. The downside, how many people were still alive in the rubble? Is this going to hinder or help the search? The Lord works wonders, sometimes things that look like problems turn out to be blessings when we look back on them. For those of you that have read "The Hiding Place", I always remember, "be thankful for the fleas". Those of you that haven't read it need to read it to understand the fleas.

I was blogging, giving you all this great information. Hit return (I guess that's a button NOT to touch) and it all disappeared. Maybe the computer was telling me the info wasn't so great after all!! It's raining outside, I love rainy days! Rainy days are great days to read, get caught up on projects, nest....it's just cozy for me. I do like sunshine too, don't get me wrong. On sunny days everyone wants to be outside having family picnics, going for walks etc. It's been fun rambling, my girls should be happy for now. Well we'll see.....

I'M STILL HERE
