Looking at them, I wouldn't expect a lot of spice.

Most recently either documentaries on Curiosity Stream or those kinda-sappy overcoming the odds or inspiring dying person movies.

I may have stuck with it a little bit longer, but I really got into it & I enjoyed it! (It's good for me to try new things.)

That was a wild ride!
If not for a recommendation, I wouldn't have watched or stuck with it, but I'm glad I did-- it was fun. Thanks!

RIP June Lockhart.

You brought us some great roles.

My TBR list had grown by leaps and bounds the last few days, and though I thought I'd spend the whole day reading, I'm finding myself unable to focus any more.

Maybe it's time for a movie break.

Scrappy Doo being the villain in the Scooby Doo movie is the best!!!

Sounds wonderful...I just bought it.

Looking forward to finishing what I'm reading now so I can start it ( I can only read 2-3 at a time!).

You were pretty wacko (in a good way, of course)!

I am!

I volunteer at the animal 🐶 🐱 shelter--difficult sometimes, but really rewarding.

Watching @sentammoses.bsky.social on Rizzoli and Isles. Interesting episode.

I retired several months ago, and being able to read whenever I want makes me wonder how I ever survived having to put a book down to go to work (or go to sleep so I could get up to go to work...).

Just started #amreading "A Hundred Magical Reasons" by Laura Denooyer.

I'm a huge Oz fan, so having L Frank Baum as a character is a big plus.

I know. In fact, I'm kind of surprised I'm having any reaction at all, other than acceptance that this is the way things are.

The #NFL Commissioner does not have to explain or justify the choice of a half-time performer at an NFL game to the president.

It hasn't rained much here lately, so I'm (almost) always grateful when it does.

Wag-O-Ween 🐶at the shelter was scheduled for Saturday & I was really looking forward to it. Unfortunately, some of the weather we haven't seen much of is also scheduled, so it's been cancelled 😿

Early voting for our local elections has started; printed my sample ballot, and I'm starting my research to see how I should #vote.

As a reader, I enjoy unlikely friendships--it's usually a cranky older person/young person, but any out-of-the-ordinary pairing will do.
Seems hard to pull off, but when it's good, it's good.

Enjoy!

I think since I inspired you, I should get a batch (hint hint). LOL!
