About Me

Not a Michigander any more. Now a Floridan.

These signs keep making me smile and feel good inside.

I recently moved from Michigan to Florida. Yes, well it's 32 and snowing in Michigan and 70 and sunny here in Florida. What can I say. Being Florida I find myself passing several 'Biden's not my president' signs. The first time I found myself smiling and feeling all warm and fuzzy inside because Joe Biden IS my President. I've found that I still do that every time I see one of those signs. I suspect they are suppose to have the opposite effect on me, but I guess I'm just contrary. Every time I see one of those signs I smile. Joe Biden IS my President. Thank Heavens.

God, I really love Michigan.

Yesterday was about as perfect a day as can happen. The air was so clean that it stung my nose and the leaves were stunning in their shininess. This morning was cold, dark and dreadful. I turned the furnace on. This afternoon turned into another perfect day with a lovely breeze that set the leaves to singing. How could you not love this? My best friends moved to Florida a few years ago. They have had the same temperature range, 75-90, for the last 3 months. They love it. Me, I love Michigan's unpredictability and glorious changes. Every morning is exciting to wake up to.

Since we're talking about Shakespearean films I'd like to recommend 2.

Henry V with Laurence Olivier and Henry V with Kenneth Brangh. The interesting thing is how this same story was presented. Olivier's film was 1944 and made to assist the war effort. Brangh's film was 1968 and definitely anti-war. Same play different emphasis and presentation. I saw Olivier's film in Junior High and was instantly a fan. Never looked back. And I loved Brangh's film just as much.

2CELLOS are back!!

I'm an idiot online so I can't post the address. However, if you go to 2Cellos Official Website they have up their latest collaboration. It is wonderful. This is their first collaborative video in a couple of years since one of the guys took time off to get married and have a baby and then the pandemic came along. They play everything from classical to hard rock on their cellos and their performances are always awesome. This latest is a cover of Living on a Prayer. This is truly the beginning of spring as far as I'm concerned.

Oh, good grief. Another heart and I feel so undeserving compared to those

of you who bring so many articles and such for the rest of us to see. But I still really appreciate the hearts. Thanks.

Oh, my. I go away and come back and more hearts are waiting for me.

Thank you so much. The day just keeps getting better and better.

Thanks for the heart, I actually could use it today. Appreciate it.
