I knew you would be relieved.
Does GROUNDHOG DAY count as time travel for the TOD?
We watched BACHELOR MOTHER last night. Stars Ginger Rogers and David Niven,
I'd never seen it before. Cute.
They remade it as BUNDLE OF JOY during the 1950s with Debbie Reynolds and Eddie Fisher.
I remember seeing it in a theater. Not cute.

I love the original and hate the remake.
DR Elmore,
In regards to your comment on Easter yesterday,
Easter is not a Holiday, it is a HOLYDAY!
Many non Christians believe it is celebrated as a Holiday, probably due to the sad commercialism of the media.
In my opinion it is one of the most Sacred of all of the Christian Holydays and is a great source of Hope for all those who believe!!!
I don't mean to sound preachy i am simply explaining the difference between Holidays and Holydays in the Christian religions.

Yup. Same thoughts.

TOD:
Let me add to the many wonderful films already cited: "On A Clear Day You Can See Forever"
(or should that be "On a Clear Day, you can see a Funny Girl singing 'Hello Dolly' forever?")
My husband will eat all the bacon and sausage.
Per DR Jane's request, here's the bunny cake:

I hope you find a good one among the candidates DR GEORGE.
Ah.....if you like her, I will keep my fingers crossed.

re: TOD comments regarding "Time After Time," the Nicholas Meyer film about H. G. Wells going to the future to stop Jack the Ripper from escaping justice:
I agree it's a splendid example of a film about time travel. Do any of you remember, however, a TV movie with the same name (NOT about time travel) starring John Gielgud? It's about a man who lives with his three sisters -- April, May and Baby June.
IMDB offer the following:
"The aging Swift family of one brother, Jasper, and three sisters, April, May and June, are forced to live together in the run-down family mansion and they all get on each others nerves. One-eyed Jasper is the only one who does the cooking and he has occasional meetings with a monk from the nearby monastery. April was left some money when her husband died and is now practically deaf. May is a spinster who gives talks on flower arranging and also steals ornaments. The youngest, still called Baby June, was an avid horsewoman, but now relies on her farmhand Christy Lucey to train and ride her horse. One day, to their surprise, cousin Leda comes to visit and elicits various embarrassing family secrets. Leda, who is half Jewish and used to live in Vienna, stayed with the family when she was a teenager, but they thought she died in a concentration camp in the war."
I've wanted to see this film for 30 years and have never had the opportunity. I now find it's uploaded to youtube!
Can anyone here recommend it?

Your name is in the acknowledgements DR RLP as is the name of DR GEORGE.
Monday morning greetings! I've been to our primary care physician for a routine check-up, mostly for prescription refills. I have gained weight and lost height >:(

Just purchased a ticket for Do I Hear a Waltz? - Sunday evening, May 15.
I had Keith drop me off in downtown this morning so I could look at glass frames again before walking home.
I am very excited that I finally found a frame I like. I've brought home about 6 frames and returned them all. I saw this frame just before we left for Vegas and liked it but didn't have time to give it a test run. Some of the other frames I was ok with, not great but ok. Keith hated them all.
When he came home I was wearing the frame over my contacts. He looked at me and said "nice glasses". I am very relieved because I too like these. I thanked him for pushing me to continue searching for something better. :)
Boy, do I need to get my glasses replaced. I had the doctor email me my prescription so I can just go somewhere and get a pair. Maybe I can get that done tomorrow.
The latest reminder: I just read DR Jane's "I'm annoyed I left my fitbit at home" as "I'm annoyed I left my filth at home..."

You can bring home frames to try?
I just got new frames/glasses in January. I knew right away which pair i liked best. And a few other people agreed. I really like them. Only problem is it took me quite a while to get used to the prescription even though it wasn't that much different from my old glasses. I don't wear my glasses that often (only to drive, if i'm at the mall, at the movies, if i'm watching my niece swim).
I got glasses with magnetic sunglasses that attach. I love these feature.

What a coinkydink! I got a text from my eye doctor just last week, saying that it's time for my annual eye exam. This year, I am eligible for new lenses AND frames. However, I don't really need new frames (I like the ones I have), so I'm hoping that I can actually get these frames with new lenses (which is covered), AND some new lenses for an older set of frames. Then, I'll have TWO spare pairs of glasses. Or maybe I could get at least an allowance on a second set of lenses instead of one set of lenses and one set of frames. We'll see what they say.

Good luck with the second part of that.

If you ask places will let you take them, at least the eye doctor's smaller practices. I don't wear my hair the same way so I like to bring them home and try them with my hair various ways. Some of the glass frames I tried were a bit colorful and I wanted to be sure they went with everything. Mostly I think I really wasn't crazy about them, and I want Keith to like them to since he looks at me wearing them more than I look at myself ;D

I got my glasses at Costco so they would definitely not let you take them home to try. You should bring Keith with you to choose the frames. I would never go alone to choose frames. There were only maybe 30 pairs that had the clip-on sun glasses i wanted. So to me it only took like 15 minutes for me to choose. But i could tell easily which ones i liked. It was funny while i was sitting waiting I was watching other ladies try on different glasses. I wanted to scream at them because it was obvious to me that some of the choices were bad. You should take pics with the different choices and let us vote. :)
I will be picking Sandy up tomorrow for a late lunch.
At least, I can spend a little time with him.
