Movie Monday

Netflix is beyond awesome
the movie options are endless

the boyfriend and I 
had the pleasure of watching
the other evening
and absolutely loved every minute of it
I haven't seen such a good movie in a long while


I love movies that rely on story telling 
rather than CGI effects

but I'm sure Bill Murray would look pretty awesome in 3D

Ready, Set, DVR

 is devoting a day to the 
Late Great Elizabeth Taylor
April 10th
it's an amazing line up of movies
starting at 6am
get your DVR's ready
these movies arn't on television that often


as a child of the 1980's 
I was born a little after when Elizabeth ruled the Movie screen
~but~
I was totally transfixed by these commercials
(and my uncle gave me the perfume gift set once for Christmas)

I have a pair of very sparkly dangly earrings
that when ever I put them on
I'm thinking
*white diamonds*
I've never tried dropping them into the boyfriends beer though.....

I base most of my advice off of old movies

was it Reverend Mother who told Maria
(from the Sound of Music)
that when God closed a door he opened a window?

"Sound" advice right?
*i've got jokes*



i've got my eyes on that window

Goodbye Elizabeth


When people say 
"shes got everything"
I've got one answer-
I haven't had tomorrow
-Elizabeth Taylor


I'm donning all my jewelry at once
does anyone have a turban?

Try to be like the turtle - at ease in your own shell.

*Over the Weekend*
(my weekend is really Sunday & Monday)
the boyfriend was amazing enough to build us a Veggie Planter

he did such a good job! 
I even went and bought him some Bud Light



project2.jpg

we were admiring his handy work 
when we noticed that the ground in the planter was moving
*we hadn't put any soil in the box yet*
(thank goodness)
*Surprise*
Baby turtles started to pop out of the ground
5 in all
