Thank you and some suggestions...

Thank you, thank you very much (Elvis-channeling) for the nice comments from those women whom I've never heard of before. Just kidding-thank you Sis and Mellie, very sweet. You are already on the "mandatory", ahem, "automatic" club membership list. Okay, here's some not-so-much navel-gazing as sharing great new experiences. We watched Little Miss Sunshine on demand last night and it's GREAT. It is hilarious but also very sweet with wonderful messages. I went to the movie today, by myself (debriefing from the last few days of being quarantined as nurse to some of the world's great whiners), and saw The Queen. Of course, being the Anglophile that I am, they could have said blah, blah, blah with a British accent and I would have sat several hours mesmerized. But, it was a very good movie, really interesting. Good gossip for the high-browed. And last, just for now, I've started reading Saving Fish From Drowning (sorry, I couldn't find an underline option on this thing) by Amy Tan. And so far I can tell you that it's fab. She meanders a lot like Anne Tyler whom I also love. Reading this and Anne Tyler's books is like exercising your mind by keeping up a serpentine-like stream of conscientiousness and being fully entertained in the process. Positive feedback is always welcome. Have a blessed life!
