Make A Wish

Another year ends...and we are all probably setting up goals for the new year.  Some of us want to lose weight, get a new job, move into a bigger house or just a simple wish for better health. We always try to reinvent ourselves, entering the new year feeling really good about achieving even a tenth of our goals within the first two weeks. Then sadly, by February those resolutions go out the door with last week's trash.

I am very guilty of setting up myself for failure by creating unrealistic resolutions.  I have always had the will power, the hard edge of determination that is needed.  Some may say it's stubbornness! The problem is I have too many irons in the fire to keep up the energy level to achieve even one goal.

This year I have decided on one small goal for myself. One thing I am sure of, if I want to do something bad enough, I focus all my attention on that one goal and I always get it done. It follows the old saying, "Where there is a will...there is a way!"

Cheers! 🍷

Candlelight Service

"And when we give each other Christmas gifts in His name, let us remember that He has given us the sun and the moon and the stars, and the earth with its forests and mountains and oceans--and all that lives and move upon them. He has given us all green things and everything that blossoms and bears fruit and all that we quarrel about and all that we have misused--and to save us from our foolishness, from all our sins, He came down to earth and gave us Himself.”― Sigrid Undset


Happy Christmas Eve! We have reached the final days of 2019! Of course, the weather today is rainy and blustery. A bit on the chilly side.  Hopefully, it will blow out of here by tomorrow.

This evening I will be attending Christmas Vigil Mass, followed by having a small buffet service with drinks. It is an all around the Christmas Tree night!

I hope everyone enjoys this wonderful and miraculous evening with family and friends.

Cheers! 🍷

Holiday Wishes

Lovely dinner with family last night. Michaelangelo's is a very nice italian style restaurant on the northwest side of Tucson. They have the best lasagna in town! Of course, that was my entree and I ended the evening with Limoncello cake, my favorite.  Oh, it was for me, a two martini night!  🍸🍸

Spent a quiet Sunday afternoon reading and watching a movie, "Men in Black International" on Starz. Not a bad movie, just not as funny as I hoped it would be. The first movie in this franchise with Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones, was hilarious!

I finished watching "Watchmen" on HBO this past week, which is set in an alternative America where white supremacists are on the rampage and Robert Redford is President. For a show about Watchmen, only a few are highlighted in the series. The heroine is Sister Night; baker by day, hooded avenger by night. The show is really quite well written and very thought provoking.

"His Dark Materials" also on HBO, has its final episode tomorrow night. This series I am enjoying very much and will give you my thoughts about it after the finale. 

I just started watching "The Witcher" which so far is very good! If you stream Netflix you should check it out!

As for "V-Wars" (also on Netflix) it was for me, a totally Ian Somerhalder experience. The show's concept is similar to "The Passage", except the book is ten times better. Virus turns people into vampires, doctor who happens to be immune, has to discover a cure. I was not impressed with Ian's role as a doctor in this series. I think he is at his best in a more sexier, dangerous role...doesn't have to be a vampire either. But!!! I will watch season 2 just to see Ian...much like I watch Tom Cruise movies...just to see Tom. 😆

Christmas feels different this year...it hit me hard when I went to get some stocking stuffers for our cat. I normally pick up gifts for Hannah as well...the thought of having Christmas without her made me fall back into a depressive state of mind. I must admit to being less than enthusiastic the last few weeks about preparing for the holiday. The house is empty and too quiet with her gone. 😞

Have a good evening everyone.
