Sunday (Evening) Post

Here it is Christmas Day evening, and I am so full of good food, I can hardly strike the keys! Quickly, because I need a nap, here is my look at the week back.

What I finished last week:  Nothing!  I was gifted several new books and have been reading in little bits and pieces on the four (or so) books I have going that I am “right in the middle” of things.

What I watched last week: Movie: The Big Fish. I watched this on my DVD player that hooks up to my laptop which arrived by FedEx yesterday (one day service, yet!), Christmas Eve.  While my husband was watching football (His team won by a hair.), I thoroughly enjoyed this movie and will recommend it to my spouse as well.  Everything Tim Burton has a “hand in” is always magical, and this film is no exception.

TV: Two episodes of “Scorpion”, which still keeps me on the edge of my chair, holding my breath–so many twists and turns!  Two Christmas specials: Dolly Parton’s “Circle of Love” and “I Want a Dog for Christmas” Charlie Brown special.( We got to know Snoopy’s brothers). The “Timeless” episode where the team gets involved with Bonnie and Clyde and the sub-plots thicken. “People of Earth” a weird, quirky, thirty minute sit com which has a strange abduction premise and many (often in inappropriate language) zingers and laugh-out-loud-one-liners. The season finale of “Grey’s Anatomy” and a few more “mindless TV” shows.  I learned that it’s easy to bake, cook, and clean while “watching” TV.

I think Christmas night calls for no more food and enough reading to keep me from nodding off before eight o’clock.
