Hi Rosie! Hi all! This week we have repair people coming in to fix stuff on the punch list we turned into the builders. Our arched window in the master bedroom began leaking and they will have to re-sheetrock, plus our back fence was falling down...its been interesting the things we have found faulty about this house since we moved in. Fortunately, the builders have been VERY gracious in coming in to fix things immediately. We're very pleased. I was worried they were going to delay delay delay, but I was (happily) wrong.

I am finally done with the theatre stuff...at least until next year when I start to get the bug again. In the spring they are doing "Trip to Bountiful" a Horton Foote play (he did the screenplay for To Kill a Mockingbird, and also wrote "Places in the Heart" and "Tender Mercies." I HIGHLY recommend those films. Sally Fields and John Malkovich - he's fairly conservative from what I hear - were in Places and Robert Duvall was in Tender Mercies.) Foote grew up in the little town just down the road from me! Wharton, Texas. Trust me, if you saw Wharton, you'd know why he wanted to get out of that town as soon as possible, but you'd also see where he got a lot of his influences/ideas from. Watching Places and Trip to Bountiful is like seeing a documentary of home!

Anyway, I babble...dropping in and dropping out for now because the repairmen for the work in the bathroom and study will be here soon.

Can you BELIEVE these awful angry lefties??? They are SCARY! I almost wish I still had my LJ going...the temptation to restart one last week just so I could go around and taunt the unhappy lefties was ALMOST too strong to resist. Fortunately, I was distracted!!

Anyone here know how to crochet?

Miss y'all and will get back on board soon!

Howdy!

"Tender Mercies" is one of my favorite movies of all time. Someone in the family owns it, and we pass it around a couple times a year so we can rewatch it. Robert Duvall really hasn't been in much of ANYTHING that I didn't like...and as a musician, I respect the heck out of him for actually writing his own songs and playing the guitar himself in that movie.

Also like that he said Hollywood political activits "should keep their mouths shut." Heh...

I'll have to check out "Places in the Heart" - so it's good?

I'm sorry ecrubh, I don't "smoke it" to use an Aubrey-ism! whatcha mean??

Rosie - Places is one of my favs :D Ive only seen Mercies once, so I will have to check it out again. Bountiful was made into a movie, although the only actor I recognize in it is Rebecca DeMornay.

"Crotchet" is a somewhat archaic term for a quarter note, now only used primarily in Britain. A quaver is an eighth note, a minim is a half note, and a breve is a double whole note.

"Time in a Bottle" then?

If I could save time in a bottle
The first thing that I'd like to do
Is to save every day
'Til eternity passes away
Just to spend them with you

If I could make days last forever
If words could make wishes come true
I'd save every day
Like a treasure and then,
Again, I would spend them with you
