So the day started out really sunny, which was nice since it was cloudy and gloomy yesterday. I headed out to the country with a friend to eat at this little diner I've discovered. It's such a beautiful drive that I take it every chance I get. Afterwards, I took my dog for a long walk enjoying the warmth and easiness the day was vibing.
The roomie picked up the new DVD set of "AVATAR " One regular DVD and one Blue Ray. I took the time watch the regular DVD on the 32" in the main room. I LOVE the movie, but it did lose a little coming down from the movie screen. Some of the colors were not quite as vivid, but I was so into the story anyway, nothing was lost really. You either love it or hate it. I can't imagine hating it or not even liking it, but that's just me. Oh, and one word of warning, the smaller the television, the more the movie starts looking animated.
To celebrate my birthday, I received a box that contained 24 volumes of Nancy Drew Mystery Stories from my roommate. We actually had found them at that little antique store that reminded me of poking around at Grandma's house. I am really excited to have some of the books again. I have 5 from the original issue date in 1930-1957 and 3 from the 1970 print and the rest are from the 1960s. I'm stoked. Seriously. I had a few of them when I was growing up and I was always jealous that my ex-husband had managed to keep his "Hardy Boys" series. So now I once again own a few of Nancy Drew.
By 1:00 a big storm had moved in from the West. Lots of wind.....and lightening. The lilac tree took a real beating. So I ended up just walking on the treadmill, sitting in the hot tub and catching up on television. I was LAZY. No kidding.
By the end of the day I had mucho "Happy Birthday" wishes on my Facebook page (which I answered) that spilled over into Monday. Talked to my BFF, my son, my sister-in-laws, my brothers and my Mom via telephone. The old fashioned way. *sigh* HAPPY BIRTHDAY !
