I don't do a lot of streaming although of what I've seen this year, I like:

Peacemaker on HBO with Mr. John Cena.

A couple of the movies I mentioned yesterday were on streaming....but I think they were also in theeders.

I also liked THE LOW about the Murdaugh family and the murders and crime in South Carolina.

AND not only that Luka Garza was on the floor playing for Minnesota last night in the last few minutes of the game!

They play again tomorrow night, so hopefully we will see him again.

We just got our first Dairy Queen several months ago, and it’s about as close to my house as anything retail can be. But have I been there yet? No, because I am a FOOL. Of course I’ve intended to stop in and have something since day one…in particular, a cheeseburger just for old times sake because it will remind me of a few enjoyable car trips which were the only times I ever seemed to be at a Dairy Queen. And now I’m hearing about STACKBURGERS? Maybe the universe is trying to tell me something.

Do they have cherry-dipped cones? It’s a regional offering. I love them.

Congrats to MR BK on choosing the book!

Hopefully he will have no more household disturbances today.

The Geminid meteor shower show begins tonight but other than that the stars are quiet.....pesky Mars and Neptune can influence mechanical things and electronics but this end by Friday with the 1st quarter of the moon.

It’s the 386th birthday of the National Guard. I don’t think I realized my dad had retired from the National Guard until after his death.

Drool. The peppermint bark blizzard is also quite good.

Listening to a coworker sing the National Anthem. She has the voice for it. Beautiful.

Another from the Show That Would Not Die Department: Will Chess be coming back to Broadway. Tim Rice hopes so.

I just turned down the job offer. It looks like I will have to go to Louisville to move Mom out of her apartment. She’s not improving enough after the stroke to live independently. And I can’t afford an hourly job with no time off.

I saw the original Broadway production of Chess. I like the score a lot. The book has its problems.

Envious. Judy Kuhn was phenomenal on the recording. The bootleg video on YouTube has just magnificent singing in it.

That's too bad about the job...and very sad about your mom. :(
