Sundays are for TCM

Sundays are for the Turner Network. If I ad my way I would just lock my self in y room and watch Ted Turner classics all Sunday long. Years ago when I was single and did not have a vehicle that was all I could do on Sun- days. The public transportation system shut down on Saturday night and did not start again till Monday morning. In the winter it was really too cold much my wheelchair anywhere I didn’t need to go so I would stay in wash clothes and watch videos I would rent Saturday night. This worked just fin and kept me , I am sure out of lots of trouble. Now I have cable and TCM but I don’t have the time to recluse. Today, we did take tie to watch one whole Turner Classic Imitation of Life. This was a great movie! Lana Turner and other done in 1959—just as the “Age of Happy” problems was beginning to grind to a halt. One movie was all I had time for it’s Brooks birthday so there will be a dinner at Bridget’s later tonight. Dianne will be fixing one of brooks favorite Chicken and Dumplings two batches. I have a hard time with Chicken and Dumps but I suppose I’ll go. It promises to be a long afternoon since Dianne will be fixing the whole mess at Bridget and Gabe’s. I am such a puss though. This means not only dressing up warm, “because it’s cold outside” but leaving my fine wheelchair accessible house to go to a place where I must be drug up the steps in terror then be cloister in a home with no accessible bathroom for hat seems hours…OH! It will be hours. I better prep stopping taking fluids now. Oh well, it’s be good to socialize a little. It’ll be good though( do I sound as if I am trying to convince myself?) It’ once a year—sorta if I don’t count Christmas and Easter. In the Summer it’s not o bad with the events usually being out of doors. Then I just have to worry about the bathroom. I can do this.

Well I did not get to the Christmas cards last night but I did have a shot of Jagermeister. I am sneaking up on the Christmas card project—they’ll get out I a assure you. Speaking of Christmas deadlines; I have decided cop out on trying to send gifts this year to go the . I really hate to do this but I am going to send gift cards: that ubiquitous piece of plastic that says I am too busy or lazy to shop, box and send. The gift card also says I have lost touch with you to the point I don’t know you well enough to risk purchasing you a gift that you may not like, so, I am going to make you do it yourself. Am I too much a of a creep or what? Next year, I am going to do everything early. Next year I swear to be the best father gift giver ever. No Walmart, Target B&N shop cards next year. Life was so much more simple when all I had to do was wash clothes an watch Ted Turner Classics.
