What season are you watching? I skipped your post to be on the safe side of a "spoiler".

Season 2. I had the impression no one was watching this but myself.

We watched season 1 but haven't gotten to season 2 yet. Is it good?

Better than Season 1, I think.

Good. Thanks.

AMAZON HOUSE!

I don't think there's any earthly way to post a picture from the iPad.

Came upstairs to the computer and got it done in less than a New York minute.

Love it, thanks.

Thank you, DR ChasSmith! I hope by the time you get into Manhattan that I have a nicer and larger Amazon house for the babies. They've played hide and seek all night in it!

I took Annabelle's Amazon carton, turned it over, cut a door and made a little house for her and Thatch. He seems intrigued by it.

Did you sing "We have a mother, at last we have a mother" from Peter Pan?

Watching the extras on The Warriors. Everyone seemed to have had a wonderful time making the movie, and the behind the scenes stories are fun. Several of the most effective scenes were created on the set, rather than from the script. That included David Patrick Kelly chanting "Warriors, come out to play!"

My Criterion selections arrived in the mail. I hope to find some time to watch them.

Chatted with the Muse, decided on things, then did the fixes with Grant, which went pretty quickly, then we had some lunch. Then I came home and went through the new version just to make sure that the fixes didn't introduce new issues, which, of course, they did - six small bad breaks at the ends of pages - he has those now and will fix and make sure they don't screw up anything else. Normally with my other books this is never this kind of issue, but there are no chapters in this book so we always have to check forward from any change. But hopefully the six are so minor that we'll get those done and that' will be that. Then Grant is going to get Doug everything, because he doesn't have time to do his usual stuff and Doug will complete doing everything with the cover and back cover, which is fine.

I'm going to try to write some flap copy later, at least to get a way into it.

Sorry it have been E&T been chatting with my best friend ( we met when we were 14). Her daughter was just engaged as well and planning a wedding for April 2019

We've been swapping stories and sympathizing with each other

That is fun 😊

MR BK's story reminded me of the days writing papers on the typewriter and not having enough space at the bottom of a page for all the footnotes.....but if you stopped the body of the paper, it didn't reach far enough and there was TOO MUCH space....

Sometimes one had to write an extra paragraph or move something....

Loved the Amazon Box House foto.

Page six? Really?

Finished with my viewing.

If I don't fall asleep reading I will return later.

Listening to the Khachaturian violin concerto, which I adore.

Good evening.

Happy President’s Day. It hardly seems like a holiday now that I am retired.

Tonight is expected to be the coldest night of the year.

TCB · « **Reply #174 on:** February 19, 2018, 11:02:03 PM »

Since this is only February, I guess that isn’t terribly newsworthy.

TCB · « **Reply #175 on:** February 19, 2018, 11:03:56 PM »

For Western Washington, the low of 20 degrees is a record. I know many parts of the country think that rather laughable.

Cute photo of Amazon house.

I received my latest electric bill. It is high for me, but I have to remember that I am now at home all of the time, instead of working.

TCB · « **Reply #178 on:** February 19, 2018, 11:08:11 PM »

I would still gladly pay the power, rather than my too cold.

TCB · « **Reply #179 on:** February 19, 2018, 11:09:41 PM »

And now I have Tacoma Electric, instead of the extremely expensive Puget Power.
