Double Feature with the Devil
"Get your stinking paw off me, you damned dirty ape!" ~ Planet of the Apes How did I get two weeks behind with my movie posts? Silly day job is keeping me too damn busy.

Monday is Looking Up
You'll find that implementing small changes can have a significant impact on your life. Remember - little hinges swing on big doors. ~ S.J.

Book Challenge: The Giver
We accept the love we think we deserve. ~ The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky Growing up, libraries were one of my favorite places. Libraries are full of possibilities.

Action is the conqueror of all fears. If you're an 80's child, you remember Manic Monday from the Bangles. That's certainly how the…Read more Monday Mania

I can assure them it is much more serious than that. ~ Bill Shankly Today is the first non-friendly match for Liverpool (LFC). It's not the Premier League. That starts on Friday. It's the 2019 FA Community Shield.…Read more The Community Shield
Winter is Coming… Are you Ready?
The more you practice tolerating discomfort, the more confidence you'll gain in your ability to accept new challenges. ~ Amy Morin It's the last Monday of July. I thought it would be great if I took a group photo of my completed MM19 wips for this month. I've made quite a bit of knitting progress…Read more Winter is Coming… Are you Ready?
They’re Already Here!
"When you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible." ~ When Harry Meet Sally The British Hubby and I love a good B movie or cult classic.
