Friday morning greetings! We've been out for my post-op appointment with the eye doctor, who is quite pleased with my progress. I'm very glad not to look like the Phantom of the Opera any more.
As far as I can tell from the television promos, HIDDEN FIGURES is the true story about how the Mercury Project, including the first US man in space John Glenn, was really accomplished by three sassy mamas who did all the work while everyone else at NASA stood around and wrung their hands......
Hugs for Elmore.
DR elmore I hope you recharge your batteries, what I call down time, today and feel more positive tomorrow.

I had the impression the film deals with the unsung people who went uncredited, possibly because of race, and who were as important to the success as the ones who got full credit. I've been there. Several times.

This and the preview for "Beauty and the Beast" were the only films I want to see. The previews for this Guy Ritchie King Arthur epic and Wonder woman looked like a lot of hyper-inflated CGI effects and no more.

Day before yesterday, the AC was called for. Last night the heat came on. Today's high will be less than 60. Tomorrow it will be warm, sunny and in the 70s.
Elmore - great to hear the financial situation! But sorry to hear that today you're feeling down.
Oh, and glad the heavier blouse I would have taken was a shade of orange. I don't wear orange during the holiday season as it tends to clash with the decor.
Yes i bought my copy. Does your library often have such short e-books?
Sometimes but the original publish date was Jan 3rd. I just purchased it.
Every action has a reaction. Yesterday was a good day, and today is a downer. I'm relatively healthy, better off financially than I've been for the past three years, but I'm very depressed today. At 7:00 this morning, I cancelled therapy and stayed in bed. I finally forced myself to get up and dress just after 9:00.
Healing vibes for Ginny.
