Over the weekend, thanks to my friend's generous gift, I saw "Argo". I highly recommend this "based-on-a-true-story" film. Ben Affleck is stepping into George Clooney's shoes and becoming the director/writer/actor, areas which seem to be his niche.
The movie was very tightly directed--and even though I knew the outcome of the film, I still held my breath in places! It was fantastic. Funnier than I expected and every bit as dramatic as I hoped it would be. Go see it!
It felt so good to be able to go to the movies! I'm going to the NC State Fair this weekend with Shannon (James' ex-wife's granddaughter), and I can't wait. Of course I can't eat a lot of the food at the fair, but I WILL buy a caramel apple to bring home! (And stretch it over two meals...or so...depending on how big it is!)
October is more than half over--does that seem possible? It's going to be holiday time before we know it! And this year, unlike last year, is going to be great...I'm feeling good about myself, my finances are going to be straightened out, and I will go home for Christmas (if not for Thanksgiving...)
I made a pot of chili over the weekend, and it's so delicious! I always wonder why I don't cook more often! A pot of chili provides me with about 10 meals, so it's very inexpensive, hearty and because I buy very lean ground beef, it's also good for me! (Those kidney beans are just packed with protein!) I had a little chili for lunch today, and then turned around and had it for dinner, too! (It just tasted so darned good!!)
It's ALMOST Wednesday, folks!! Have a great one!
