I suppose winning the mega millions. Or finding out I was to be a grandma would make me happier

George, you already watched the Director's Cut, yes?  So, then you can compare, which will be fun.  Yes, I believe they supplied something for the film.

I haven watched the Director's Cut, yet.  I wanted to watch the theatrical version first to see what all the hubbub was about, then to see what it should really be like...then watch and listen to the audio commentaries.

Both Tacoma and Puyallup are located in Pierce County.  Yesterday it was announced that the woman that is the head of the Pierce County Housing Authority is believed to have embezzled Seven Million Dollars, over the past four years, into her personal accounts.  She must have misunderstood the part where it says that the Housing Authority money is suppose to be used to house the poor and homeless.

Kitty cleanup is accomplished and now that Gurjeet fixed my back yesterday, it went really easily.

I'm glad he's able to help you.

I hope  the authorities are planning on providing her with housing for the next 10 years or so.  And recovering the $ and using it for the intended purpose

It's been a hectic day here. This morning I definitely felt I was coming down with something, modified my plans for the day, and took Sambucol and Echinacea. I felt better quickly, but found that the heater wasn't working. Sigh. I called the manager, who said a repairman could come out this afternoon. I rushed to take care of some grocery shopping. The repairman thought the thermostat just needed new batteries. I had one on hand that was the right size and my neighbor offered another, giving us the requisite two. I HOPE that takes care of it. It's been quite cold at night. The last time the thermostat needed to be replaced it was a battle with the management here.

It's unlikely they'll be able to recover much, sadly, but yes, her housing problem is probably over.

Homelessness has become so much worse here in California. The fires left many people homeless and, in many cases, the fires left them without jobs as well. It's really heartbreaking.

The malfunctioning heater made me think about options for heating. Small, sometimes desk-sized heaters are available now and seem pretty popular. I'm thinking about buying one for the dinette area, which I use as a mini home office. It's freezing in there on cold days.

Anyone have any recommendations?

I just ran across this picture,  just the boys and me ...I’m not sure where Ginny and Richard were.

What a great day that was!
