Lily has only been gone for a week and I do miss her. Above is her favourite toy with parts nibbled away.

It's getting cold again. Only about -15 but down to -33 with the windchill. Looking out the window, it is deceivingly inviting to play outside, with the blue blue skies and the sun shining on the snow.

Saw The King's Speech last night. That movie just proves you don't need sex or violence to make a great movie. Colin Firth deserves an Academy Award, as does Geoffrey Rush. At the end of the movie half the theatre clapped. I can't remember that happening in a movie theatre!

WOW! I have heard that this is an amazing movie- We usually wait until they come to watch in our home but with this report - maybe should put out the money - so expensive to go to a movie these days - get out their and see it . Love your positive - do not need sex (which is so mandatory) along with a touch of violence (which also seems to draw the crowds) but just a time in the past - which for now I do not know what it is about but have heard that this one is the movie to see this year - MJT

Thanks for the heads up on this one!

I also saw the King's Speech a few weekends ago, it was SOO good. Definitely was not expecting it to be that well done. It is up there among Sherlock Holmes - Kayla
