Hello, folks. The coffee is brewing and the water is hot.
Today we are supposed to have our new sofa delivered. Out in the driveway in a huge box. They don't bring it inside. Just a delivery to the front step. Then you are on your own. We will just see how much fun that will be.
Victor had his morning walkies and it is chilly out there. I may have to go out in it to do the shopping.
Later.
Oh my! I don't know what a 105 year old crippled woman like me would do with a big box outside to bring in. Seems it would be nice to have offered to put it in place for an additional fee. But you and Paula got the huge treadmill out to the buyer's vehicle, so I guess if you both had your Cheerios this morning.....! No rain coming you way I hope.

Kisten, so very delighted, along with everyone else here I know, to welcome you. We are ultra low key, super nice people. We just like the slow lane.

This is a small model in reality - or wouldn't have fit in your closet (and you were spot on with the book)

Glad you got the coffee on so early, Bill. It's time for a marathon of tv watching I think.
I don't think I can take a marathon. Just tell me in the morning how many more days we will have to wait for a final count. Maybe a nature program is on somewhere.

I think if I was going to a Halloween party tonight, I would put on a tux, slip a toy gun into a shoulder holster, and carry a gun-metal cigarette case (of candy cigarettes). Sir Sean Connery died at 90. One of my favorite actors of all time. So many great parts, even if he is still chiefly remembered for playing James Bond.
Hmmm. No martini ingredients here so I guess I will have a Scottish Breakfast tea in honour of Connery's beloved homeland (he was an ardent Scottish nationalist).
Scott, this was a wonderful idea for a costume! I sadly went to a graveside service yesterday for a friend of Scottish decent and part of our group of women who love to celebrate all things Scot. There was a piper that played "Danny Boy", "Amazing Grace" and "Going Home". We toasted her and Sir Connolly with mead at the end.
The funniest thing I read about Sean Connery was his saying he had to work on his speech as his accent was so strong that many people thought he was from Poland.
Which went on to remind me of my sister and husband visiting Ireland for the first time and having a few in a Pub with three men, one went to the rest room and my sister asked what country he was from. They answered that no one could understand him, he was from Scotland.
AND the unicorn skeleton was absolutely the best.
