I sure am, boy! Ever hear of Evel Knievel? ~ Bond This Friday night between smoky conditions making it unhealthy to be outside and COVID, the only thing left was watching movies inside. It was perfect for Bond movie number nine The Man with a Golden Gun. This movie aired in 1974. You can still…Read more The Man with the Golden Gun

Thank you very much. I was out walking my rat and lost my way. ~ Diamonds are Forever This Friday was movie number 7 in our 007 adventure. Sean Connery is back in Diamonds are Forever. Time is marching on. You can feel the 70's vibe in the theme song. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZwbEuzJCnqI It was a little…Read more Diamonds are Forever
Celebrating Life with Sardines
A cat does not want all the world to love them, only those they have chosen to love. Since the British Hubby and I are finding new ways to celebrate life, why shouldn't the cats as well? To be fair, I think our cats already have a pretty amazing life. Sure, they wash their own…Read more Celebrating Life with Sardines
Dr. No
"Bond. James Bond." ~ Dr. No After watching Hong Kong action movies for several weeks, moving to the Bond films seemed like the natural next step. Dr. No is the first of 24 Bond movies with number 25, No Time to Die, expected in November of this year. This movie has some very iconic moments…Read more Dr. No
A Wee Update
Where ever you go, no matter what the weather, always bring your own sunshine. ~ Anthony D'Angelo It's been awhile since I've posted or done any updates.

Malabrigo March Monday

For awhile it was looking like I was going to run out of available needles, but then…Read more The Last Monday of MM20
Rain Rain Go Away
Some people feel the rain. Others just get wet. ~ Bob Marley Wow, what an odd winter we're having. Below normal temperatures than above normal temperatures. Snow when we don't normally have snow. And January had 28 days of rain out of 31. Eek, that's a lot of rain. Most people think it rains all…Read more Rain Rain Go Away
Friday Night Heist
"Elementary, my dear Watson." ~ The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, 1939. The snow has mostly melted. Okay, we actually still have quite a bit left, but the road conditions have cleared up enough to travel into work. Commuting sure does cut down on my knitting and snuggling time. Snow or no snow Friday night typically…Read more Friday Night Heist
