After getting quotes from various  landscapers with fancy trucks and lots of workers I DD I  decided to hire the guy  who cuts my neighbors lawn with his little mower.  He came today and did an outstanding job

And he is willing to come every other week.  The other guys all insisted on a contract for every week from April 1 - November 1

The Vixter has been doing the lawn for the past several years    Vixdad did it after she left but his carpal tunnel is getting worse and after the vibrations of the more his hands are nearly crippled for the rest of the weekend. I can't pull start the mower anymore  so it was time to hand the job off

I keep forgetting that DR JOHN G has been mentioning MARJORIE MORNINGSTAR.

I like the book very much, and the movie is okay.  The music is very nice and Natalie Wood is beautiful....Gene Kelly's egotistical loser seems very life like.

I like everyone - except  Ed Wynn - but he's just doing his regular schtick.

SPOILER ALERT DR JOHN G!!!!!



And of course, Natalie ends up with Martin Milner which disappointed me when I watched the movie when I was a kid....but now it doesn't seem so bad.

I finished it. It could have been better. But Natalie Wood was superb. She was such a joy to watch. I now want to see something else of hers beside Gypsy or West Side Story again.

Herman Wouk is one of my favorite authors, yet I was not overly enraptured with MARJORIE MORNINGSTAR.  Maybe I should re-read this one.

The only book of  his I've read is Don't Stop the Carnival. That was a hoot.

Started watching Nocturnal Animals. Good and creepy start, but I don't have the time to pay full attention.

Back after a really long day, that will be even longer beginning next Tuesday.  Must learn to pace myself.  But a REALLY good and fun first day, more about which in the notes.
