It’s a job that’s never started
that takes the longest to finish.
J.R.R. Tolkien
It is true if you don’t start something you will never finish it. I can prove it. Yesterday, I kept reminding myself that Monday musings needed to be written. It was Monday after all. But I never did start writing. Here it is Tuesday, too late for Monday musings, so I will just talk. Not that I have anything much to say today.
The weather has been great for walking the last few days. Not too hot and little humidity. That makes me happy. It’s supposed to rain the next few days, which we need, but I will complain if I have to walk in the rain. In fact, I probably won’t take a walk if it rains and I will complain about that.
Here’s something else I have been complaining about lately, movies. Why do they have to be over two hours long? Whatever happened to ninety minute movies? I don’t go out to movies, I get them from Netflix and watch them at home, so I could pause them, do something else then go back and watch the rest later. But, for some reason I always mess up the pause thing and have to go back to the beginning and fast forward to where I left off…if I remember where I left off and if I remembered to pause before turning the TV off. See, another complaint.
I am in dire need of an attitude adjustment. If only there was an app for it. But there isn’t! Is that a complaint or just a comment? I could go on and on like this, but I will spare you, and stop here.
I will be in better spirits Thursday when I share my thoughts.
At least, I hope so.
I’m driving myself crazy with all this complaining nonsense.

Hee! Hee! I thought I was the only one who did that with videos…It is great knowing that you too do it! Now I can quit beating myself up.
There’s no gun to your head to write Mondays, or any specific day. It’s just nice when you do. I so look forward to whatever you have to say. 🙂
There is no gun, but if I don’t keep some sort of schedule, everything gets put off, and nothing gets done. This is true in all areas of my life. I was very disciplined when I worked, retirement is a different story. Once again, thank you for your encouragement!
I’m a fan. 🙂
We all need to vent every now and then! I like shorter movies too because I am too antsy to wait for the end.
Maybe, but it isn’t my usual way and certainly not so publically.
A little venting is good. I also like movies to be shorter. 2+ hours is just too long.
A little venting? I think this was a little over the top. I don’t know what my problem was yesterday.
I think you must’ve felt better afterwards.
I really prefer shorter movies too. I usually watch one at night, or I should say I play one at night, I usually fall fast asleep after about 40 minutes.
I don’t think I have ever fallen asleep watching a movie. Do you watch the rest later or just let it go?
i like long movies
the new documentary on rita moreno
is ninety minutes
yw
I used to like long movies. I don’t know what changed. Maybe I am just hard to please these days.
oh oh just as in 1995 when sally said she hated dances with wolves. too bad. so sad.
🤷♀️
cos i m a monkey. not monkey man as per zimmy whilst in the wilburys.
Oh dear, as so often happens I have no idea what you are talking about.
i find that remark offensive. i m sorry you do not comprehend.
i acknowledge that the comment was unusual. it won t happen again.
I am sorry if I hurt your feelings, that was never my intention. But honestly, I often don’t understand what you are saying. That doesn’t mean I think you don’t have a right to be heard.
tsk. but you did not hesitate to point out my oddity. please no further comments. go read somewhere s else.
We are all odd in some way, if we weren’t we would be boring clones. Celebrate your oddness!
no i surely will not. i will be of comfort tho in my skin.
Ok
