TOD part 2:

When I was a kid, I would get out my tape recorder and record the title music from all of the old Universal (and Universal-International) monster movies from the 1930s through the 1950s. I still have it on cassette, but would love to have a good recording of all of those on CD.

I love you, MBarnum.

Wow!  Never heard of this before!

[MBarnum]

Today I have joined the hoi polloi. I have given up the cushy and convenient paid parking spot at my downtown apartment building. I will now park on the street, just like one of the masses.

Hopefully, finding a spot to park will not be a difficulty, at least on the days I have bags of groceries to haul from my car.

Also, I hope I can remember from day to day just where in the neighborhood I parked my car! I may need GPS just for that!

Why did you give it up?

Just trying to cut back on expenses.

[Laura]

Well, I guess no one from here is ever going to be invited to my house for dinner.  At least, not when I serve my own lasagna, because I make mine with cottage cheese.  I have never claimed it to be Tom's Italian Lasagna, just Tom's Lasagna.  I have never had a complaint from anyone who has tried it.

Same here, TCB.

Happy Canada Day!

Happy Canada Day!!

Tuesday evening greetings!  Richard and I were up early, intending to go to Home Depot first thing for paint and gear.  While we were eating breakfast, the flooring place called to ask if they could come to give a second opinion on the upstairs bathroom.  The guy who looked at it Saturday saw all kinds of problems, but the guy today said, "No problem, I'll be here at 7:30 tomorrow morning!"

After he left, we headed out and got Behr (brand) Polar White (shade) for the bedroom walls and a chicken to cook for our dinner.  Richard prepped the east wall and will paint tomorrow while the new bathroom floor is being installed upstairs.

I hope the second guy doing the installation is correct-FLOOR VIBES!!!!

Based on your purses I did not figure you for a white wall person

Speaking of BBC, I have been watching a very funny program called ALMOST ROYAL. Quite hilarious.

I've been watching it too, DR MBarnum!  I think it's hilarious!

Hmmm, maybe we should check this out.  Is it half an hour or an hour?  When is it on?

And here.

Happy Canada Day!  Growing up on the border it wasn't unusual for us to go over the bridge for dinner.  No need for birth certificates or passports, just a declaration of citizenship.

When we lived in Michigan I wanted to go, but never did, to Detroit for the fireworks.  I was told they were shared with Canada for the combined holidays and were spectacular.

TOD 1:

Two Christmas movies -- The Bishop's Wife and the original Christmas in Connecticut. Don't know if either has been released.

I have the CD of THE BISHOP'S WIFE score.

Today is Kitty, our grandcat's 10th birthday.  This is the kitten Craig got when he was in the Peace Corps.

This is from one of my Canadian friends, obviously a Bernese Mt. Dog person.

Richard can't see it either.

There was so much obnoxious paint and wallpaper in our kitchen when we moved in that I just wanted it white to get over the trauma.  We ended up liking it and eventually just added a wallpaper border to keep it from looking like an operating room.

It's a half hour show on BBC America.  They repeat episodes several times a week.  I think there have been 3 episodes so far.   It's on Saturday at noon, 12:30, 10 pm , 10;30 pm.  And again on Sunday and Monday.  I think the new episodes are on Saturday at 10 pm.   These times are all Eastern--not sure about other time zones!

[Jane]

Speaking of my friend, she just complained on FB about the "unfollow" option...

"kind of getting irritated with the FB feed. I am not following some people in my feed, yet I get a notification that XXX liked a page"

I guess if you unfollow someone that just means you can't see them but they can see you.  I can't find the "hide" option if you want it both ways.  Does anyone know where that went?

[KevinH]

I just noticed that you can "remove" a post.  Is that new ?

I found your pretty color.  I wonder if Richard will see it once it is on your walls.

All that is important is that you enjoy it.  I know I wouldn't dislike it.
