A very nice holiday with lots of good food, movies, reading, etc. Megan and I saw MARTY SUPREME, which was packed and I enjoyed it although it was not the best movie of the year for me. We went to Meadowbrook Theater with the whole family and saw A CHRISTMAS CAROL. They do it every year. Megan just beat the storm back to NY.
My arm is still hurting me so I might have to try and get a cortisone shot. Hope that works. I don't want to go to CA with a sore wing, as Phil always called it. And taking all this pain med (OTC)is making me nauseated.
Sorry to see PLURIBUS end for the year. But glad THE PITT is coming back.
Kevin did well his first semester at Madison. He is still hoping to design computer programs or games but so are all his classmates.
What about you?
FROM JEFF
I'm
not sure I should bother with a long post as I have not been able to
post anything here the last couple of weeks. But I suppose I could send
you a copy and have you post it for me. For whatever reason, your blog
seems to hate me.
Things are generally good, other than the
weather, which is horrible. They predicted 4 to 8 inches of snow, with
some forecasters going as high as 11 inches. But we got lucky again, as
Central Park got just over 4 inches and we only got an inch or two down
here, enough to coat the streets and cover the cars, but not much
more. The plows came by repeatedly.
What with the weather, we've
been staying in a lot. Jackie is plowing through SUITS. two episodes a
day - she's near the end of season 6 - and I've been reading a lot of
short stories. We leave for Florida on Saturday morning, so will spend a
couple of days before that packing. We're not from the Diane Kelley
"Pack Two Weeks in Advance" school.
We watched various favorite
Christmas episodes of British shows we like, plus A Christmas Story,
It's a Wonderful Life, Meet Me In St. Louis and Love Actually, and we
have our usual New Year's Eve movies set - Two For The Road and When
Harry Met Sally... .
We're basically trying to finish shows where
we're in the middle of a series - watched the last two BLUE LIGHTS
episodes last night, and it was excellent. Also have CHICAGO FIRE
(season one), NCIS (season 21, I think), THE ASSASSIN, PLURIBUS, THE
MORNING SHOW, LANDMAN (series 2), among others. If episodes are
separate, we don't worry about it. We'll be able to watch Netflix and
the Amazon-related channels in Florida, but not Peacock (Chicago Fire).
