Reading, Watching, & Listening



Hello, dear friends.  I must be honest with you.  I got up extra early to finish this post because I thought it was Friday.  I desperately need to get back into a routine.

My happy retiree has decided to retire from retirement and reenter the workforce. 


 The Mister is staying in the hospitality biz and is very excited about the opportunity.  

And guess when he starts?


On Monday, which happens to be closing day.

I swear he did it purposely.

All I can say is that I am glad I have had plenty of experience taking the lead on the unpacking experience.  I usually take my time and thoughtfully place all of my things around the house. 
 
By the time I get to the Mister's boxes, I am usually too tired to deal with it so I just throw most of the stuff out and tell him that it got lost in transit.  









Fiona Davis never disappoints.



Lots of twists and turns.
I will definitely read more of the author's books.




I enjoyed this novel's refreshing plotline.




Almost finished with this thriller.
No question about it, it's keeping me guessing.





Peter Swanson is one of my favorite authors.
I just started this - so far so good.







This comes out on April 6th.
I downloaded the Audible and can't wait to start it.
I just wish Penn was reading it.




 


"They found the bodies on a Tuesday." 
So begins this twisty and breathtaking novel.

I haven't started it yet, and I'm already hooked.




A gripping mystery about a woman who thinks she’s found the love of her life - until he disappears.

This sounds like a playbook of my dating life before I snagged met the Mister.




Three mothers facing impossible choices learn what makes a family, and discover just how far they’ll go to protect the ones they love.



The tale of a love triangle that unfolds in the heart of Rome...

Another favorite author of mine.






I enjoyed this show a lot more than I thought I would.
By the end, I was totally in love with Ted Lasso.



This show was made about 20 years ago.
If you are looking for a pick-me-up I highly recommend this one. 





The Mister liked this movie a lot more than I did.





This is my favorite medical show of all time.



I watch the RH shows to validate that I'm not that crazy after all.
The Mister would disagree.




This show is wickedly funny.

 However, it includes several off-color scenes.  

If you are easily offended this show is not for you.

I wish you all a wonderful Easter and a happy Passover.

Let's Go Shopping!


 Hello, dear friends.  Did you have a good weekend?  One of my favorite seasons in Texas is the Spring.  The weather has been positively delicious!  It motivates me to attach a few more steps to my walk every day.


The final countdown is on.  Six more days until the Mister and I are homeowners again.  We are doing our walk-through with our agent on Easter Sunday at 5PM.  I hope the owner leaves us some Peeps!  As I shared with you, we will be easing into the move because we are having some work done.  On the house, that is, not on me.  It will be a couple of weeks before the movers arrive.


And don't look for any new house tours soon.  Most of our furniture is not arriving until mid-Summer.  This will be a real trial of my patience.   


Yesterday, we escorted our #2 to the high school in Rockwall to receive her J&J one-shot wonder.   The state of Texas opened up the vaccines to all who are sixteen and older.  I will keep you posted as to whether she experienced any side effects.


Now, it's time to do some shopping.  I am not a shoe person.  If I find a pair of shoes that are comfortable, I will buy them in every shade available.  Purses are another thing entirely.  I can never get enough of them.  And I love to pick out a new one or two every Spring.

I used to have an Etienne Aigner purse similar to this one back in the '80s.
I thought that I was beyond cool.
Did anyone else have one?


Mark & Graham

And while we're strolling down memory lane, who carried one of these?



























I bought a purse identical to this one a few years ago at Marshalls.  I was in an elevator in NYC when a beautifully-dressed woman asked me if I bought it at a market in France.  Naturally, I responded Mais Oui! and began the rest of my day with a little extra bounce in my step.




My #1 has this one.












Amazon






A must for a passionate purse aficionado, such as myself.



Until next time...





Please say hello, to Linda and her little darling, Stella.
(This is a Happy Birthday surprise for her hubby.)




My name is Stella, and I am 10 years young.
I’m the luckiest little girl!
My mom& dad adopted me when I was 2 years old.
My mom makes me homemade dog food & peanut butter treats.
