Ok, Im ready for Pirates of the Caribbean!
I really enjoy the pirates with Johnny Depp. I feel like Johnny is a close friend in my head and heart. I like what appears to be his personality come through the character that he plays. Yes, he is quirky but there is a wisdom that shines through and that is what I enjoy the most about this character, Barbosa is a hot mess; the concept of “part of the ship part of the crew” and the octopus captain and his wife “the sea” are a great fated romantic couple. So I miss them, please just one more time Johnny…I love the theme music it fits perfectly!
Anyone else agree? Please call out to Johnny Depp…I really miss him as the Jack Sparrow…plus they left too many loose ends. For example where is Orlando Bloom and his Dad? Does he come home every year to check on his child? Does he take the child on his boat for a ride? Since he is a happy pirate right? Or has he became poisoned by guilt or doubt? See what I mean? I want to know these things.
Okay, enough for now…I m tired—had a long day and “Thor” is waiting for me to press play.
Have a blessed night!

Fun fun fun fun! It is Summer!
To most people summer is a great time to relax and enjoy their families and go on trips. However for me this year is a bit different. I am stuck in the house seven days a week twenty fore hours a day. Several things happened this year….I had a unforeseen accident and I have several medical issues I must address. So there you have it. But wait…does that mean I am not having any fun? Not at all! Let me give you the run down on what to do when you are stuck in your house and cannot get out due to circumstances …here goes!
My love of singing keeps me busy and my love of my wild birds outside my house keeps me even busier. I wake up in the morning and I go feed them seeds and a few crusts of bread.
I find this time of day the best…so serene and peaceful. I wake up at about 5:30. I walk to the back door and sit on the ramp. I have a nice lounge chair. My little friends come out, the squirrels, the sparrows, the peasants, the pigeons, and even starlings. They know my voice…but I am very quiet at this time of the morning. So I just throw the seeds off of my ramp and sit back and watch the show. Sometimes I am in a lot of pain so I just close my eyes and put my head back on the chair. Wow, you need to get up before the world starts moving and sit quietly, you will feel different for the rest of your day.
Recently my son gave me his Cannon EOS T3 Digital Camera. I enjoy this a lot. I have posted at least 363 pictures on flicker! They are variety of pictures that range from the wild birds eating seeds to the many shapely clouds that I see early in the morning directly over my head. I have a great love of the sky. I get sleepy sometimes while I gaze up at the clouds and take a little nap. Taking a nap sometimes helps pain, and exhausting that comes from lack of sleep from pain. So my early morning prayer and wild bird feeding is fun!
My son is a graphic art and design major. He also writes music on his computer. I enjoy hours of talking to him about his goals and listening to his write songs and play them for me and his grandmother, (my mother). Sometimes he does not go to sleep until 4:00 in the morning. So if I am not well, I may be up with him till the crack of dawn….hence my 5:30 am bird feeding.
Yes sometimes I am groggy most of the day but if the pain persists that is what I have to deal with. But I can forget those aches and pains when I sit and enjoy my sons’ music. Sometimes laying on my back, or sides is difficult and that is why I do not sleep well.
But anyway, another fun activity is watching adventure movies made for the summer! I have at least 40 or so movies in a book binder. I have been watching Annaconda! It is such a C List movie and the OVER ACTING against the CGI Snake is hilarious! I even got my son to see how funny it is! Another good movie I have in my collection is Thor…#1. It is adventure and romance rolled into one! I recently found Dr. Doolittle in my collection! My son was even happy! For a 21 year old to feel nostalgia for such a movie brings a feeling a closeness and reminds me of my younger pain free days with my “little boy’..
Fun Fun Fun in the summer….even if I cannot make it to the beach or park…I have found fun inside the house! Try it sometime…you might even save a few bucks!
