Monday morning greetings! Richard and I are taking it easy today because the older we get the harder those Lima Sundays become. His "retirement" can't come soon enough...

Did he set a date?

Sometime around July 1...

And I believe July 1 puts us on Page 2.

No new glasses yet, but I have my meds for April and I've had a great therapy session involving deep hear massage, thigh massage, hamstring, calf, and rectus femoris stretching. So far, the day's gone well.

Just had a weird thing happen with my MacBook - the keyboard stopped functioning. I'd press keys and nothing would appear in my email, Google search box, or the posting area here at HHW. Fortunately, the "mouse key" was working, so I logged out of everything and shut the computer down for a few minutes. Upon restart, everything seems OK, but I hope it's not a sign of a dying computer.

Oh good. I worry about those long Sunday, way too early, long drives.

Wonderful notes, I enjoyed reading about all of the misadventures of CREATURE although it turned out badly for MR BK. I also enjoyed reading about the Playboy Mansion adventures.

Retirement vibes for RICHARD.

My sister Paula is retiring on Thursday from the dental office where she has worked for many years. Her husband retired EARLY, but insisted she work longer......hmmmmm.....but now she is almost FREE!!!!

A banner day! But honestly, she could have waited a little longer, enjoyed having the Easter eggs on it, and then it would have been all ready to receive the Fourth of July decorations.

Thanks, DR Jane. This commitment not only takes up our Sundays, but we don't do much on Saturday evenings beforehand and we're pretty useless on the following Mondays. Richard will be there Thursday-Sunday this weekend, but I'm staying home to cat-sit and prepare a nice Easter Sunday dinner for all of us.

I have often threatened to leave the tree up all year and just change the decorations - snowflakes in January, hearts in February, shamrocks in March, etc. DR Vixmom is not far behind us this year - our tree just went back to the basement last week. The ornaments had been removed in January, though.

Cat-sitting, a perfect reason to stay home

I'm a little nervous about being on my own with her for 48 hours or so. Just this morning I had to clean up a little cat barf - for the first time in my life...

There are tons of restrictions here, yet it was apparently ok for a neighbor to leave her outdoor Christmas tree lit for months. It really bothered Keith as the lights were on all day. It is a live potted tree, they just needed to turn it off. How hard could that have been-lol

Did they leave you special cleanin supplies?

When Craig lived with us I enjoyed pet sitting Kitty, not so much Yogi. That dog makes Marley look good.

DR Druxy your play sounds inreresting. When I think of the two actors I think of one brilliant actor and am gratefull the other one turned down Casablanca.

He also turned down DEAD END, HIGH SIERRA, THE MALTESE FALCON and DOUBLE INDEMNITY.

Robinson was "an actor"; Raft was "a presence," but he was a nice man. Not the sharpest knife in the drawer, but a nice man.

I just named my favorite Bogart film that he Raft turned down

I didn't know or remember about Double Indemnity.

THEY DRIVE BY NIGHT was probably my first Bogart movie. I was more focused on Bogart's story than Rafts. As I watched more Bogie films I understood why.

I'm glad Raft was a nice guy.

Ron Pulliam · « **Reply #58 on:** March 21, 2016, 10:13:04 AM »

It's another Monday. I had a surprise awaiting me when I arrived at work. Two parcels were on my desk: One from Varese Sarabande (club titles) and Twilight Time (my most recent order including "Anastasia" and "Exodus").

Had I known they were delivered on Friday, I'd have come by on Saturday morning to pick them up. The UPS and USPS sites indicated a March 22nd delivery date on both of them.

Oh, well. It's time to get this week started and, once started, OVER!
