Simple Things - A Movie, A Weekend and Old Friends

DH and I had an early Sunday morning, a breakfast in, and then went to my favorite movie theatre to see "Black Panther". I loved it, DH liked it but it wasn't as high on his list. He didn't like the main character, I loved all of the strong and capable women. I guess we just look for different things in a movie - LOL. The large bucket of popcorn was delightful and it was a great way to spend a Sunday morning. I think our next movie will be "Tomb Raider", just because we love the franchise. 

I really enjoyed "Black Panther". A cast of strong characters
with lots of action made for a fun two hours. I'm really happy
we went. If you haven't seen it yet, stay for the full end,
through all of the credits. 

It was extremely pleasant to have a lazy day off, yesterday. There was no snow we needed to shovel (we're expected to get an inch or so later in the week, but nothing major), and we didn't need to be in attendance at anything. We played a little on our computers, watched golf on TV, and watched another episode from a DVD collection we've been working our way through. All in all, it was a really nice Sunday. Now we're back into the normal schedule. 

Rory McIlroy won the Arnold Palmer Invitational yesterday by
playing some pretty amazing golf. It was a pleasure to see.
The Masters is coming up in a few weeks. Augusta is my
unofficial start of Spring - just looking at green grasses,
brilliant flowers and bushy trees. 

Saturday at the shop was extremely busy, but in a great way. Several customers came by who hasn't visited in a long time, and it was wonderful to catch up a little while helping them get their beads. I even got hugs from a couple of them who've been friends for many years. It was so fun to see them again and catch up with their kids and families. It made for a Saturday that flew by, even though we were very busy. 

Our trees are starting to look fluffy - the stark skeletal look of
the winter is changing to spring. No leaves yet, that will still
be a week or two out, but the definite signal that winter
is almost over and spring is right around the corner. 

So not a lot to tell in today's blog. But that's OK too. Sometimes having great days and seeing old friends and a fun movie is all I can want. Sometimes it's the simple things that make it all worthwhile. Have an excellent Monday and I'll be back tomorrow.
