No exercise last night, but we finished watching the 1997 Masterpiece Theatre version of
Rebecca and had some healthy and well-portioned dinner.
I am excited that tomorrow mum and I travel to Queen City to help a couple of friends move.

Or something like that.
Yes, I think your favorites list is much, much longer.
I just saw a music video of "Maybe I'm Amazed" by Paul McCartney. I am sure I have heard it many times in the past but this video was as though I was introduced to it for the first time. The lyrics were crystal clear and written exclusively for my feelings at the moment. I usually get swept away by melody and music, not lyrics, but the words to this song that I have hummed but never sang really caught me of guard.
Your post made me think of it again...a pleasant experience.
Thanks
