Saturday Night Date Revue

Saturday night arrived and armed with an extra cheese, supreme pizza, we settled in to watch our movie in the dark. I did head for the bathroom, as soon as I saw the bear attack coming. Whew! it lasted a while, didn't it? (If you saw the movie) About half (?) way through, the movie stopped. Had to turn the lights on so DH could see if he could get it going again. Eventually he did and he made a remark about it not taking long for the guy to be walking upright again. (He had been crawling when the thing stalled) We finished watching the movie.

I liked the movie, I was surprised that Amazon folks gave it a 4 star. The scenery (if it was real, and who can tell nowadays) was beautiful, and the story was plausible. 

After it was over and DH went back to football, I took the DVD into my room and stuck it into my TV-player. The movie played all the way through. We have had a couple of the blue-ray disks stall like that and once we had a devil of a time even getting it to shut down to extract the disk. We are of the opinion that the player is not worth the powder etc. DH threw away the box etc the first day, so there is no sending it back. Will have to buy another player and keep all the stuff with it until we know it works. All the disks our son sent are just blue-ray. My TV player is only DVD. I ordered The Revenant in either/or ...

We're looking for a cooler week!

What's on your schedule?

Still a favorite

Not sure what's happening, Blogger is acting obstinate today. I planned (uh-oh, that may be the key) to post a picture of some sparrows parking on their favorite old dead branch of the fig. The branch has since broken. Must have been one overweight sparrow, huh?

Not much happening, I'm continuing to be plagued with coughing, hacking, sneezing and being "Biserable." Today, I noticed that my weather page has announced an allergy alert. They could have asked me a couple of weeks ago ... (Not that it would have helped any.) 

DH set up the Blue-ray and we watched a movie, Sicario, a guy film, in other words, a loud, violent, and bloody movie about drug dealers and the guys trying to eliminate them. It was hard telling the bad guys from the bad guys ... 

Yesterday, I ended up sleeping most of the day and night until I woke up around 8:30 this morning. I must have needed it. I need to get to feeling better soon - so much to do before the grapes get ripe. I still hope to try again at a batch of blueberry wine, but a different recipe, before I make a batch from the grapes. I know I shouldn't plan anything, my bad.

Working now - Sparrows on Favorite Hangout.

 Have a good rest of the day!
