Elementary, My Dear…

G is out of town this weekend, off with a friend in Lost Wages. So, since I’m home alone I indulged in one of my very favorite things yesterday after work–I went to a movie by myself. I saw Sherlock Holmes–A Game of Shadows.  I’ve been wanting to see it since the trailers started showing, [...]

Something More Fun

Nine years ago this month (February–almost missed it!), I spent a week in London by myself. I was still on my 6-month severance pay from the HMO, working 3 days a week as a paralegal, and 4 months into living alone, having separated from my 2nd husband. In 2000, I took my mother on her [...]

Books and Movies

Tuesday morning, G got up early and caught the shuttle to the airport to head out for her trip. I debated staying at the hotel and snoozing a bit longer, but decided to head on home, so was on the road a bit after 6 a.m. and home by about 8:30. I returned a couple [...]

I Make A Discovery (more gender stuff)

As you know, we joined Netflix earlier this year and have really been enjoying it. However, with our recent trip to Denver, and then the Olympics and the DNC taking over our subsequent viewing, our 2 most current Netflix selections have been sitting on the TV for a while, just waiting. Not surprisingly, they are [...]

Weekend Stuff

Saturday is drawing to a close. G spent the day at a quilting class, learning how to make beautiful jackets out of sweatshirts. When she finishes the one she is working on, I’ll post a pic here. I spent most of the time she was in class either here, or reading a new Laurie R. [...]

A Good Weekend

It’s Sunday evening, and a good weekend is coming to a close. Last year, we decided to try “bundling” services with our phone company and add DirecTV. Previously, we existed only with network television. Yes, it can be done! We enjoyed our year of extra channels with nothing to watch, although I did get pretty [...]
