Our day was ordinary by most standards.
And it really was quiet all of today.
Accomplishing our usual normal chores, but deciding to contact a few family members to wish them an additional happy holiday.
We live quite far from most of the family, and when it comes to the holidays it does sadden me that we cannot always get together.
Emails are great for most, but some are still intimidated by the computer concept or the internet itself.
Tonight we are planning our Saturday night movie night.
We have two that are quite long and will be starting as soon as I am done here.
Would you believe one is Narnia, the sequel? Yes, we do enjoy movies that are non violent and make you smile and feel good.
And the other for diversification is the newest X Files one that didn’t do too well at the theaters. I guess you can say we were both big fans of that show.
We had also picked up a few books the other day at our library, and I put in a request for two more.
Oddly enough one of the ones I put in for on Thursday they called me the very next day to let me know it was available, and we will pick that up sometime this week before or after Christmas that is.
It was a Richard Bachman/ Stephen King (I suppose most know that Richard Bachman is an alias for Stephen King when he was trying to see if it was his writing that sold his books and impressed people or if it was his name after his success) novel called Thinner that I seemed to have missed, which was written back in 1984 and the second one that I am still waiting on was our President elects Barack Obama’s, The Audacity of Hope; I really felt the need to read that to be better informed on our new leader.
Speaking of the President elect Obama he has completed his choices for his entire cabinet earlier than any other president before him. And that it just stupendous! He did mean what he said and now with that accomplished he really will be able to hit the road running right after the Inauguration, which makes me feel confident that I did make the right choice with my vote.
Although, the minister that was our president elect’s choice for the Inauguration this time also seems to be quite controversial and I really don’t have enough information to honor you with any intelligent opinion on that; stay tuned.
Corrections: Last night I stated that the government was bailing out Chevy and Chrysler it is actually GM and Chrysler, and I also stated it was a lesser amount but it is actually 17.6B.
I will bid you all good night and to all sleep well.
Speaking My Mind is about: Tobi, who is a middle aged, no, oh all right a slightly over the hill woman with all the imperfections that go with that, and this concerns her daily life's perceptions and experiences.
