Another confession. (I hope this isn’t catching.)

I have a confession. I’m in a really bad mood today. Really.

It’s also the third day of bad moods. Even I’m fed up with myself by now. Here’s the confession, it’s more than a little possible I’m…

John for Janet.

My friend Janet tells me she will share John with me. I really think the poor woman thinks this would be an acceptable accommodation.

Not so.

Janet, I don’t share well. You’d have to make it worth my while.

Feel better, Janet. Remember the words of Scarlett, “tomorrow is another day.”

Words to live by right there.

P.S. I’ll just count the number of unfollows from all the Cusack haters. It’s OK.

I looked out the window, toward the dying day, and I saw the reflection of the light hanging above the glow of the sunset.

The leaves of the trees blocking the end of the light. The shrub at the side of the house framing the window.

But my hand is shaky and the exposure long and the shot is rubbish.

But the view. The view is breathtaking. Every day. Every evening. For nearly 11 years it has never got old.

Forecast: It's odd out today.: Features

When people start discussing their best features, I become very uncomfortable.

That was how I thought…

Jann, you are beautiful. You are warm, funny, generous and kind.

You give to and encourage others on here when you deal with so much yourself with such grace. I wish I could be more like you.

I’m glad to have met you online and proud to call you a friend.

Jimmy Stewart, Grace Kelly, and Alfred Hitchcock on the set of Rear Window
1954

My all time, number one, super favorite Hitchcock movie. I first saw it in the seventh grade and not only did it change the way I watched films, it changed the way I wrote stories.

~~~ I’m watching this right now. Fabulous film, stylish and classy. Shame there aren’t more made like it today.

The problem is, I don’t like green.

Then again I like yellow with green even less. (Read, not at all.)

And the blue is just dull.

I had the green.

Actually, I’m not even sure doldrums is the right word but whatever it is, we’re in the middle of it. Perhaps it’s…

I appreciate that those of you who choose to partake of a morning repast will also have something glorious, nevertheless, Hub and I shared warmed croissants, whose deliciousness would be difficult to surpass.
