Welcome back, Kittens & Dawgs! Here we are in the 10th month of 2018. With our busy lives it almost feels like October snuck up on us but I know that’s not entirely true because while life is hectic around us, we have our nose stuck in the calendar all the time since we’re scheduling appointments left and right.
My T2Q are:
- What’s the one thing you’re looking forward to this month? Our fall colors generally arrive toward the end of the month but hopefully, we’ll see changes in the upper elevations of the Smoky’s and Blue Ridge Parkway. I hope we can take a few trips to the mountains to see nature in her finest hour with my camera in hand, naturally.
- Do you decorate your home inside/out for the autumn season? I don’t decorate so much anymore but I used to like sitting fall mums and a pumpkin on the porch. I’m not sure if I’m going to do that this year but I’d like to if the mood hits me.
This week Wandering through the Shelves TMP theme is Halloween Edition: Home Invasion.
There are two classic films and their remakes that fall into this category that we not love but own on disc. The Desperate Hours (1955) flick with Bogie and then the 1990s remake starring Anthony Hopkins. Cape Fear (1962) with Gregory Peck and Robert Mitchum and the 1991 reboot with Nick Nolte, Jessica Lange, & Robert DeNiro. Usually, remakes can’t compete with the original but that’s not the case with these movies. You like both the new and old. A more recent flick is the 2011 production of Trespass (available on Netflix) featuring Nicholas Cage and Nicole Kidman. It’s a good film and I recommend you watching it if you haven’t but I prefer the other two titles over it.
Wikipedia has a pAwesome list of ‘HOME INVASION‘ films worth checking out.
Kat gave me the heads up last week where to find her weekly prompt list. Hopefully, I’m in the right range of her list with picking my prompt choice. Today, I’m sharing with you, SOMETHING FUNNY MY DAUGHTER SAID.
Our children had a fondness for climbing into daddy’s lap to look through the pages of whatever he happened to be turning. On this particular occasion, DD#2 was nestled with her daddy with an encyclopedia. As DH turned the pages, DD#2 would quizzically ask her papa what this or that was and he’d always reply with an answer.
The page revealed an interesting image.
“Daddy, what’s that?” our 2-year old daughter wanted to know.
“That’s a human brain, Sweetie.”
She paused, thinking for only a second. “Mommy has a brain…” she said matter of factly. “but it’s not human.”
🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂
It took every ounce of restraint for him to not laugh his head off with her innocent response and one that DH told the whole family. I red-faced took the ribbing but I figured she thought the brain was ugly and her mommy’s brain was anything other than ugly.
Please join me tomorrow in another cup of coffee and some giggles with Friday Fun Stuff!
X💋X💋, Cathy
