BOOK OF THE WEEK
Anyone who wants to change something in their life, will likely benefit from this book.
Small Move, Big Change
By Caroline L. Arnold
Arguing that determination and willpower alone are insufficient to overcoming deeply ingrained habits, a guide to focusing one’s self-control on precise behavioral targets to enable meaningful change draws on the author’s own successes and failures as case-study examples of effective “microresolution” practices.
MOVIE, PLAY OR TV SHOW OF THE WEEK
Triple X
I’m not a fan of action films and I cannot recommend you watch this film, unless you are a Vin Diesel fan. But I enjoyed this film when it came out and decided after watching it that I had to go to Prague. Well, I didn’t get to Prague until 2014, but Prague was certainly worth the trip.
I just watch this film again this week and I still enjoyed it.
MUSIC OF THE WEEK
I Saw The Light
Cover By: Hillary Klug
ART OF THE WEEK
Grey Fountain
I bought this fountain back in 1988 or 32 years ago on the advice of Uncle Tony. I was going to buy a one of a kind nymph fountain. Nymphs are nature goddesses, so they were au naturel or for those of you who don’t speak French, they were naked.
Uncle Tony cautioned me that when I have visitors (I was single at the time), it might give the ladies the wrong impression of me. So I bought the fountain in the video that Uncle Tony suggest.
Later that week, I stopped by Uncle Tony’s house and what did I see. He had gone back to the store and bought the Nymphs Fountain that he had talked me out of buying. Sorry I don’t have a picture of the Nymphs Fountain, but I try to keep this blog PG rated.
EXTRAORDINARY PERSON OF THE WEEK
Ruth Bader Ginsburg
Ruth Bader Ginsburg (March 15, 1933 – September 18, 2020), also known by her initials RBG, was an American jurist who served as an associate justice of the Supreme Court of the United States from 1993 until her death in 2020. She was nominated by President Bill Clinton and was generally viewed as belonging to the liberal wing of the Court. Ginsburg was the second woman to serve on the U.S. Supreme Court, after Sandra Day O’Connor.

The Dear Husband is a big fan of Hillary Klug. He’s the one that introduced me to her music. We both can’t believe how she can clog and play fiddle and sing ALL AT THE SAME TIME! I don’t care what side of the Mason Dixon you come from, that right there is talent.

“I Saw the Light” brought me a smile. I also have an Uncle Tony. And I did thirty pushups this morning. 😁

It has been years since I’ve heard songs like “I Saw The Light”. I had forgotten how much I liked them. Would love to hear more about your Uncle Tony and congratulations on your 30 pushups–most impressive, well done Crystal

Uncle Tony is my husband’s uncle, and one day I just sat and listened and wrote down his words: “My mama couldn’t speak no English, my Daddy’s an ex-con, there were six of us kids, no place to go. I’ve been shot in the shoulder, shot through the back, shot in the leg, stabbed in the shoulder…” He lost me after that. Uncle Tony has a reputation, but to me he’s never been anything but good and kind.

Thank you for commenting. I think it they could just stop fighting and tried to get along and be respectful of one another; all parties would be so much better off.
