I love movie night and this time we are watching Tuck Everlasting.

This movie is based on a children's story that they modified into a story about two teenagers.

It has a great cast including Ben Kingsley, Sissy Spacek, William Hurt, and Amy Irving.

Great movie!

Yesterday I complained about a Youtuber putting the comment "sick" on one of my youtubes.

A Wordpress friend said "sick" is now a great compliment. Well, I deleted the comment and can't get it back so I made a Youtube explaining the error.

I hope the guy sees this one and from now on I will look up words that may be slang rather than their original meaning.

He isn't subscribed to my channel and I don't remember the name of his. Oh well. Live and Learn but often times it is Live and Learn too late.

I post a short 15 - 60 second Youtube every day and get great comments on my work!

Today one of the comments was "sick".

Now, I know that some guys call girls Fat spelled PHAT for pretty hot and tempting but I doubt that a "sick" comment on a ocean sunset with birds and a sailboat is some sort of compliment.

I deleted that one.

Our new oven that broke down under warranty was replaced yesterday.

It is easy to operate so I did not read the book for the last one. This time I will in case there is something we need to know that is not obvious.

Anyway, chapter 14 is Trouble Shooting.

Clyde said does that mean if it gives us trouble we should shoot it? Love it!

Last night our TV decided to show a screen saver and all we could get were audios from some of the stations. We did not want to pretend we were in the Radio days.

We assumed the TV, which is not very old, was shot. Today we called the Cable provider and learned the TV is not shot.

We got back many of the channels and the provider is coming over tomorrow to find out why we aren't getting the others.

Glad we don't have to buy a new TV!

Weird thing happened upstairs. Two of our smoke alarms were beeping every few seconds for many days.

We, of course, thought they were in need of new batteries. The strange thing is they only beeped every few seconds at night when the temperature got down to 68 degrees.

They never beeped during the day. I told Clyde we didn't need an ice berg detector, but I think we had some.

Anyway, we replaced the batteries and they stopped. Maybe it was a ghost hitting the buttons at night.

LOL I think.

We ran out of brownies yesterday and I was going to make some last night.

I forgot. Lots to do but the brownies were first today.

Not happy without my brownies. I am surprised we have not gotten tired of them.

Not yet!

Due to a lot of complications last year my tax chore was awful but I finally said enough and they are now being reviewed by a tax preparer.

Due to complications in 2022 I had to pay a large preparations fee and then had to pay again for an amended one.

I just found out today that the IRS no longer accepts a reduction on taxes for the tax preparations fee.

That figures! Hope I am done with 2023 taxes..

Too much to do and nothing to say but gang way!

I will be running through this house.

I love movies and have a large collection. I still have VHS and a

TV I can watch them on. Some of my favorites never made it to DVD.

I am always surprised when I get a new DVD of one I liked very much and I have forgotten the plot. I guess there are too many in my brain and I can't keep them all straight.

Anyway, I just got Whale Rider and am enjoying it all over again because I liked it and because I don't remember the plot.

I do remember that is a great movie that I highly recommend!
