Couch potatoing
I am not very good at being a couch potato (I just don’t have the patience) but I have been off of work since last Friday healing from surgery done on my right knee so I am fairly immobile at this time. I also caught a miserable cold this past Tuesday which makes me even more immobile and foggy headed. I have now read too many trash mags (not much concentrating needed there) and watched three movies.
Serious Moonlight was almost OK (again no concentration needed) ~ Meg Ryan and Timothy Bottoms in a stupid, romantic comedy.
The Road - very dark movie. It was pretty disturbing as well so I do not recommend it.
This morning was Case 39~ very spooky and scary with Renee Zellweger and Steve Khan.
I have a few B movies left the see. I am going to put in Adam now - hhhmmmm! Why am I watching B movies because they were given to me - in other words they are free.
Bob stopped at the library and picked up a book that I reserved ~ An Embarrassment of Mangoes - A Caribbean Interludeby Canadian author, Ann Vanderhoof. I recently heard a review on CBC Radio One of her latest book - The Spice Necklace but it isn’t in libraries yet - hence I will try her first book before I decide whether to order her new book through Amazon. Ann Vanderhoof and her husband, Steve Manley, have got a sailboat and the cruise the Caribbean Islands. My friend, Seija is about to embark on a similar journey which is why this book tweaked my interest. I will let you know how it is.

I also saw An Education~ a fun and fabulous movie ~ definitely an A movie
