We have officially started watching The Count of Monte Cristo, as our weekend show, and I’m hopeful that after watching I may be able to slog, errr, manage to read the book :)

I don’t know if I will ever get there 😂 but it would be fun if I could say I finished it.

I need to find a good movie to watch, a classic on YouTube or something. We finally went to a movie theater as it was my son’s birthday and he wanted to see Hail Mary, it was actually good. A good story, not any of that craziness or crazy going on (you know) movies aren’t made the same anymore. I didn’t like how they were scanned for purchases at the home store, to pay they scanned their head…but that doesn’t give any story line away to the movie, it just bothered me when I saw it because I don’t like that and anymore it does seem like they slowly try to expose us to images like that so we don’t think it’s so bad when people start chipping themselves. The commercials before the movie was played were creepy though. Using Goth vampire characters to sell Coke, Arby’s and I forget what other brands, but it was creepy…oh yeah…KFC grandpa was doing some weird levitating stuff in the movie theater commercials…so I’m not eating any of that either. But the movie was actually good.

You accomplished a lot. No matter how hard I try, I just can’t get into Lord of the Rings. We tried watching The Puzzle Lady because it looked like it might be good, but we stopped watching – just couldn’t handle the foul language when the “puzzle lady” dropped so many f-bombs. :-(

Oh yes on The Puzzle Lady. I watched it but then toward the end it was a bit too crazy! I don’t think I’ll be continuing it. It lured me in with a cozy feel and then the niece drops the f-bomb and it was downhill from there! The language on shows is out of control anymore. Some of us just don’t want to hear it!

You had a busy month reading and watching! I am finishing up The Wedding People which was, happily, not what I was expecting. I’m still not sure how it’s going to end. We’re down to the last half hour of Bridgerton. Then, I’m not sure what we’re going to watch. We only get about 45 minutes of tv watching in which is a good thing. But, I should say the tv is on almost all day. Mike can’t stand the sound of silence. I prefer the silence, but it’s easy enough to ignore.

March was slow for me in the reading/watching department, instead I crafted more.
April had a quite random start just as I like it, so I’m going to let it surprise me some more. For tomorrow I have planned to begin another book/movie combination, I don’t know either one yet.

My April reading has really taken off; I’ve already read/listened to over a dozen books so far this month! But that does mean I’ve watched very little TV/movie wise.
