Thanks Lux, nice hearing from you. The news lately is not always easy, but I’m hanging in there. I hope you are too. Enjoy some of these movies or shows if you get to them. Enjoy your weekend.

I hope you get some proper winter weather soon.

Btw, these two are definitely on my watch list.

Take care, and here’s hoping for better days ahead.

Thanks Wendy. Yeah I think you’d really like the series Ripley. It’s quite alluring. We havent gotten too far into Severance yet and are a bit on the fence.
I had bought The Leavers on one of those $1.99 ebook specials and it sat on my kindle for quite a while. But it’s worth reading and it moves pretty quickly. So relevant right now, ugh! Hope you too have a great week.

Thanks Ti. The purplish photo is one I like quite a bit. Almost every night I take another photo of the same place in a different color. It never seems to get old.
As for the clown show, it is very bad and hard to watch unfold. I wish there was more to be done to stop it. It’s painful.
I hope the cooler weather might help things around there. Hold on this week!

Hi Olivia, Wow I can’t say I blame you. What’s happening now is crazy and wrong. If I hadn’t already moved, I’d probably be interested in Europe or Africa, or perhaps New Zealand, lol. It’s far enough away and Canada is a bit too close.
Ripley was a good show! And they might eventually do a second season.

Hi Carmen, Great to hear! I don’t think I’ve tried either author but it seems like I should. Good you are enjoying these. You’re off to a good start!

Before I talk about this clown show of a government we have, I will say that that photo at the top of your post is lovely. It’s been cold and rainy here, about 35 degrees as the low. I had ice again on my windshield. Very different from the 79 degrees we had right after the big fires.

Now for the clown show, can it just end? Please. There is no governance, just overturning everything Biden and Obama touched. Just out of spite. Let’s kill the Dept of Education so we can keep our base stupid. Let’s ban any kind of health notifications so that when another pandemic hits, it won’t be tied to the wannabe dictator. Let’s get rid of all protections so we can be white, the women can have lots of babies and drop their career aspirations, and let’s make drugs super expensive so the weak can die. Natural selection at the hands of an orange pop tart.

So far I’ve read two Penelope Fitzgerald’s and one Saramago, all three 4* and less than 200 pages each. I’m on my 3rd Fitzgerald— At Freddie’s; it’s supposed to be funny. Okay so far. The Saramago one, Cain, was really something.
