Sa 1/22/22- Xmas on Redbud: 10am. 

820am.  155pm. 725pm. 

Up 7am: Partly cloudy with temps to low 30's. A heat wave!

Had a bowl of oatmeal and watched the last half hour of 'GONE FOR GOOD' (Netflix). There are a lot of moving parts in this one and I hope the book will be a bit clearer. 

910am: PC is 'Off' and getting ready to hit the streets to the far south-east side. 

10am-115pm:  All the BRANDENBURGS and Joe's sister and her daughter. Kids amped to the max, not about new toys but just happy to play together. I got a really nice tool set and 2 candles from Joe and Janny. I gave Jamie's kids walkie-talkie sets and Joe's sister gave Jon's kids the same. Glad each family got a set.

2pm: SIXMILES (an increase) ON THE TREADMILL AT 3.8 MILES AT 0.50 SLANT. Began the first episode of season 4 of 'OZARK' and more of 'STATELESS' (NETFLIX).

Read 'RABBIT IS RICH' on the couch 

450m: In the tub with 'RABBIT IS RICH' and listening  to IAN HUNTER; PAUL RODGERS; Live WHO.

Watched 'THE LADY VANISHES'-1938 (IMDB- TV). Shortly before the start of WWII a young woman is traveling by train in a foreign country (probably Eastern Europe) and strikes up a friendship with an old English woman. After a strange series of events, the old woman is nowhere to be found. She's a British spy and the young woman meets a guy and they fall in love while helping the agent to escape the fascists...or something. This is a favorite among many who are into the early films of Alfred Hitchcock, but I wasn't' wild about it. 

Watched the first episode of 'MIDNIGHT ASIA: EAT, DANCE, DREAM - Tokyo, Japan (Netflix). Tokyo nightlife- an 85 year old female/short order cook/DJ and a bartender/owner with a huge mustache, and then I shut it down.

Fr 10/3/25- Brandenburgs/ Gummy

 Fr 10/3/25- Brandenburgs/ Gummy  735am (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse). 820am (3 hits-B: Citrus Mac).  1215pm [I took 1/3 of 'VIIA' 100 mg: 33 mg total].(1-LB: Citrus Mac).  240pm (4 hits-B: Diablo's Hearse). 435pm (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse). 530pm (1-LB: Citrus Mac). 815pm (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse).  Up 630am: Rain was "in the area", but missed Westview and more sunny & unseasonably warm weather with temps close to 90. {No rain in a long time & it's getting crunchy}  About 730am several 'tree trimming' trucks arrived and parked just down the street. I first thought that they were for the house across the street, but it looks like the action is farther down the road. They disappeared by 10am and I think they were at the house 'with the indoor whirlpool'.  Watched 'UPGRADE' (Netflix).  A very fine 'Dystopian/ SciFi' genre film about a couple in Melbourne ("in a not too distant future") who are in their 'auto...

Th 10/2/25- WYNK

 Th 10/2/25 8am (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse). 10am (1-B: Citrus Mac). 1220pm (2-LB: Citrus Mac). 535pm (1-LB: Citrus Mac). 810pm (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse).  Up 715am: {took a dump at 4am}. Still unseasonably warm with a mix of sun & clouds. Watched 'MAGPIE' (Kanopy- borrowed 2 days ago).  It's basically a tale of 'Adultery & Revenge' although this isn't made clear until the last few minutes of the film. A wealthy couple live in a modern villa in the English countryside. He's a successful author, she is a housewife (she used to be in publishing) and their young daughter is co-starring in a big budget film that's being shot  near their home. Dad falls 'in lust' for the female star of the film, but his wife is several moves ahead. "69" Metascore and I would boost that to "80". From RogerEbert.com: "In its style, “Magpie” is a marital thriller with noir trappings galore, including an almost ridiculously convoluted (y...

Tu 9/30/25- Flu Shot/ COVID/ Gummy

 Tu 9/30/35- Flu Shot/ COVID/ Gummy 730am (1-LB: a mix of Diablo's & Citrus). 815am (1/2-B: Diablo's Hearse). 1255pm (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse). 1pm [I took 1/2 'DIET SMOKE]. 250pm (1/2-B: Citrus Mac). 435pm (1-LB: Citrus Mac). 535pm (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse). 810pm (1-LB: Citrus Mac).  Up 635am: Sunny & unseasonably warm with temps almost to 90. Borrowed 'HOLY COW' and 'TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH' from Hoopla to meet my quota for September. Watched 'HOLY COW' (Hoopla). A troubled teen and his young sister try to make a go of it on their farmstead dairy after their father dies. It's got a strange tone and far from an average 'coming of age' tale. Set in far eastern France near the rural villages of Pimorin and Orgelet which are about 75 miles west of Geneva, Switzerland. "83" Metascore and I would go to "91".  Watched 'BEYOND TRAINSPOTTING: The World Of Irvine Welsh' (Kanopy). An excellent profile of t...
