Trois!

[vixmom]

In the last week, my niece has had me record two Hallmark movies and put them on Blu-rays for her. These movies are so generic and bland.  What's the appeal??

Happy endings

I think offering those for money is a crime in most states.

Sweet happy endings.

Yesterday, I went to my parents' house and helped my mom get her laundry room ready for the second washer and dryer set to be delivered.  The first set couldn't be installed because they were too big by just a couple of inches to fit where they need to go.  This set fit perfectly, so they could stay.  Unfortunately, the washer is kind of loud and it's pretty much in the middle of their house, so you can't really get away from it.  We'll see if it's really annoying when she starts using it on a regular basis.

What did she get that is so loud?

City Vet remains open, I assume.  Dr. Mohr is one of about eight vets who work there.  I see her and Dr. Romero the most often.

I hope Dr. Mohr is ok, and am glad the rest of the office is open.

Our Pastors conducted church via Facebook live this morning

Those who are Skip's Facebook friends know that he was attacked outside the West Bank Cafe, where he was picking up food and had money in his hand inside the vestibule on the way in to the restaurant. 

Oh no. 

[Jane]

(They of course only do take out or delivery like all retsuarnats who have been open.)

From now on, since they also deliver, we'll do that, as we did yesterday.  But he seemed Ok enough to walk Liam yesterday, though others are doing the more lengthy walks for now.

I am glad he is slowly recovering, and you have help walking Liam.

I have to say the new dishwasher is amazingly quiet.  Thank you to Skip and Jane for recommending a Boesch, I never even heard of the brand before

[Jane]

I have not yet seen very guidance on putting contact lenses in, but I assume that means at least wash your hands REALLY REALLY well before putting the lenses in - I'm assuming that means put in one lens, then wish your hands again before putting the other lens. in.

I don't know about needing to double wash.  It is still your own eyes and own germs unless you are touching anything else in-between each eye.

[Jane]

I wish my eyes would let me wear my contacts. 

[Jane]

I got a FB message from Dr. Mohr.  She and family are sequestered in Connecticut.  I sent her an Annabelle update.

That's nice. 

[Jane]

I haven’t eaten at a Cheesecake Factory since I lived in California, and I’m trying to remember what I ever had there besides pies. Probably nothing too out of the ordinary. Burgers and other sandwiches, most likely.

The only one I ate at regularly was the Beverly Drive one when it first opened, and I was at the Marina del Rey one a couple of times. We have one here now, and it’s been on my “list” to get in there...eventually.

Pies at the Cheesecake Factory

[Jane]

Not surprisingly the first Cheesecake Factory I ate at was the one in Beverly Hills.  My father took me.

COMPLETE RECOVERY VIBES FOR SKIP!

I think Sanditon may have jumped the shark in Episode 6, which seems more out of Henry Fielding that Jane Austen.

Is that the last episode or are there 8?

Eight.

The scene where the villains create their own two-backed beast on the dragon floor?

No because there's more sex in Austen than she's given credit for.  In Mansfield Park one of the evil sisters (Maria?) has an adulterous affair.  It was the whole coach rescue of Miss Lambe and then the following ball.  Charlotte goes to London by herself (?), ends up roaming the slums of London (?) and nearly raped; then after Miss Lambe's rescue. she goes to a London ball.  Where the hell did she get the finery?

I didn't buy any of it.

So many writers and performers are blatantly exploiting this national tragedy to call attention to their take in the matter.

So here's mine.  Asking the musical question: Doesn't 6 feet apart beat 6 feet under?

"With My Friend Killing Time".

(everyone in the video guaranteed observing the six-feet-apart rule)

[Jane]

We are waiting to video chat with Freyja.  I fear she will be sleep by the time we chat.  When she is asleep, as she usually is, it is even harder for me that I can't hold her.

[Jane]

Of course in the scheme of things, not holding her is the least of my concerns.

[vixmom]

Oh sorry DR VIXMOM I didn't realize it had been so recent.....I'll give you a few more years.....

Yeah. I hear ya. I agree. I still wish they’d do a second season.

The production company was stupid not to turn it into a running soap.  The cast is good and the last episodes were good, although some of the writing is too 20th century PC for Jane Austen.  I cannot believe they let Charlotte and Miss Lambe run around outdoors with no bonnets. but I did like the Lord Babington-Miss Denham plot.

I took a picture for you but once again I am unable to upload it as HHW says it’s too big

For your viewing pleasure.

I'm up, I'm up - was up at nine-thirty after six hours of sleep, back to bed at noon-thirty for two more.

I have a DVD of his opera The Devils of Loudon, based on the same case history by Aldous Huxley as the Ken Russell film.
