You more than anyone know my long decades of stories of my Dad. He retired early at 62 because he feared he'd die. He did have some health issues here an there and a pain in the butt, gloom and doom but he lived to 87 always talking of the time that was a coming. I find it sad that he spent so much time thinking of death. 62 - 87 is a great span to have been gloomy. A waste.

Both of my folks have never been doom and gloomers.
Although, at this point, even though they both know that time is not necessarily on their side, they both deal with it mostly in a jocular manner.

There's a cat on my lap and Star Trek on my TV.

Life is good.

Sympathy like. I'm lucky we live in a good district so it's live here go here for us. Is there one or 2 schools that would best fit her needs and interests? maybe if you could get the list of choices down to 2 or 3 it might make things easier for her. Good luck

That's one of the things that we've loved about our neighborhood...a good school district. Our high school has been ranked well into the top 100 in the nation for many years now.

Hahaaa...!!!

I spent the morning, cooking brunch....decided to cheat the diet big time. Scrambled eggs, biscuits and sausage milk gravy, and bacon. So yummy!

Sounds delicious. Sometimes you have to cheat/have a treat.

I've seen both movies. The original more times than I remember, the second a coupla' times...maybe 3? Definitely like the original better. The remake is definitely a bit odd.
I think we read the book in elementary school, but, I don't remember anything about it...
I always watch the original when I know it's on...!

My daughter read it in class last year.

Me too. That's one of the reasons why I really enjoy the Swan, because of the Friendship boats to EPCOT and DHS.

I loved most of those things, back in the day... especially hearing all the coins dropping in the pay phones. I love the library, it was a treat to go there, when I was young. I loved getting a poetry book, it was a special time. I also loved James Whitcomb Riley. And Jean Stratton books. She was a writer from Indiana. I wouldn't trade those times for anything. It was a quiet time in my life, it was so short but sweet.

I love the library too. Ours has a lot of free activities for people of all ages.

My favorite episode is on now....

Mine is the Trouble with Tribbles

Which then led to the classic Star Trek Deep Space Nine/Star Trek The Original Series crossover episode The Trouble with Tribbles (although the DS9 episode is actually called Trials and Tribblelations).

 

[donaldtoo]

I don't think, I'll live that long!

I'm hoping to...!!!!!

 

[donaldtoo]

Hubby doesn't either. He notices nothing. It doesn't seem to be in their genes!

Oh my. I notice.
There are benefits to noticing...!

I'm watching the Ohio State game, which is having a torrential downpour, and thinking...that rain is coming my way soon.

The funny thing about that Captain Kirk is that he was named after his grandfather.

Star Trek's Captain Kirk was named after his grandfather.

and unlike the TOS's kirk, this new kirk destroys the enterprise like someone changes socks.

I was flipping through channels and I saw that Raiders of the Lost Arc was on, so I thought I'd watch a couple minutes. Yeah, I'm totally hooked. It's such a great movie. I love Indiana Jones!
