My bubble just burst and BFF has left to return home. You see she had planned to come visit as soon as she got home from her June/July visit and again as her travel date approached there were changes with Covid rules that threw everything in the air. Anyway, it was decided that her visit would indeed be classed as ‘essential’ because she’d be my primary sole care provider, leaving the hovel only to get food. So our plans went ahead ……. a few minutes ago her taxi turned the corner and she’s setting back for home.
We always have fun, eat foods we don’t usually eat, watch films and documentaries, play games, talk, laugh, cry, discuss, entertain and be entertained my Signor NotMyCat, go to bed late, lay in even later. A few chores get done and of course online shopping for those thought-about-semi-essential items. I became designated yarn unwinder as she crocheted a ripple blanket, this time breaking her speed record (I’m claiming credit for it). But all too soon it comes to a close, and I am eternally grateful to BFF’s hubby for letting her come for the extended pj-party.
Our viewing list is quite extensive when seen altogether.
- The Queen’s Gambit
- The Crown (series 4)
- Making A Murderer (both seasons)
- Joe Exotic The Tiger King
- Secret Love (Netflix documentary)
- Stepmom
- Johnny English
- Johnny English Returns
- Johnny English Strikes Back
- Mr Holland’s Opus
- Extremely Loud Incredibly Close
- Forrest Gump
- Sweethome Alabama
- Atonement
- My Big Fat Greek wedding
- Bridge of Spies
- October Skies
- Little Man Tate
- Most Hated Woman in America
- Twenty Feet From Stardom
- As Good As It Gets
- Ruth & Alex
I cannot begin to fathom the intelligence of Joe Exotic and the Making A Murderer documentaries, it certainly made for conversation and the Making A Murderer became compelling viewing as we waited for the next twist and turn to the fates of the family members. If you’ve got twenty hours spare I’d recommend it, it will boggle and bewilder beyond sanity.
Soooo, yeah, back to my usual with a bump…..
