Lesley Manville is reading The Thursday Murder Club. She’s wonderful.

Thanks, all, for the continued good wishes for Richard.  He’s still pretty zonked.  I went downstairs, got lunch to go, and ate it here in his room.  He never knew a thing.

I hope you have a book to read.  It is good he is sleeping.

I’d read the first 2 chapters of The Stolen Book of Evelyn Aubrey last Friday.  When I tried to start with Chapter 3 this morning, I couldn’t remember a thing.  Started over and now I’m well into the dual timeline story.

That is understandable-lol.  It sounds like you are enjoying the book.  I will mark it to read.

The halo halo is really good, though the texture of beans in a dessert still feels odd.

Is there an echo in here?

Glad that you are figuring out the book, BK, and that the fix was accomplished without too much fuss.

Yesterday, St. Elsewhere was on my must-watch list. Today I read thst Bonnie Bartlett Daniels, 93, has written her memoir. She and William Daniels have been married for 72 years.

I love them both. Wish I could have seen him in A Little Night Music. I heard (was it from Elmore?) that he was fantastic.

Started watching a Paul Schrader movie called The Card Counter. I can’t remember the last Schrader movie I saw was, but I know I didn’t like it. And I don’t like this one.

If Keith and I both live to be 94 (age difference between 93 & 94) we will have been married 74 years.

I really don't expect that to happen.  It is still a miracle I don't have cancer yet.

I had been listening to Mrs. Dalloway on CD in the car. I couldn't get a disc to play, so I brought it in. Didn't play in the DVD player. Didn't play in the laptop either, but the laptop at least told me why. The disc was blank.

Thankfully, I have read the book before. So, I will just look at my copy for what I missed and just move on.

Wow!  Married for 72 years!  That's amazing!
