Harrison Ford movies, how can I choose? I’ve never seen one I didn’t like. Today’s choice is “Witness”. Starring Ford and Kelly McGillis and Alexander Godunov who sadly died at the age of 46 from Hepatitis. The scene I decided upon is heartwarming and it was this or the dance scene in the barn. A hard choice.

I live to dance
Will take the chance
Won’t be defeated
Till my dance completed
Obstacles surround
On the path I found
Can’t you see
I’m now free?
I dance, I live
Everything, I give
Happiness gained
With no restraint.

It rang again. Odd sound, the old ringer with extra long chime. I don’t hear a sound like that anymore. Now it’s all cell phones with television show themes or rude remarks, even jokes. The bar itself was a relic and the phone fit well in the decor.
I knew who it was, I just didn’t want to pick up. They knew where I’d be. The problem with these old phones is they don’t give up. They just keep ringing incessantly, driving you to finally hold the receiver up to your ear to answer. Finally I just held it close but said nothing.
The voice I expected was talking, not caring to hear my reply. My hearing them would be enough and they knew it. The news was bad, heartbreaking in fact, so sorrowful my throat closed up and I couldn’t have said anything even if I wanted to.
It’s too late, the voice repeated, it’s too late, don’t come, you’re not needed anymore. You’re always too late. You should have been here to say goodbye.
It was my choice not to answer quickly. I do not regret my decision, but I will have another drink.

I could not let this weekend go by without one of my favorite scenes from the “Blues Brothers”.

Reading to children
At a young age
I used to use voices to help engage
Imagination to see characters from the page
Their favorites from Roald Dahl
Snide role playing most fun of all
Most of his books had lessons to teach
Such as, “James and the Giant Peach”.

One of the greatest things you can do as a parent is read to your kids.

Living in an apartment, bottom floor, I have two apartments stacked above me.
Unfortunately their schedule is different. This building is all single bedroom apartments and mostly inhabited by single people. Most of these people are first responders or military. This means they sometimes keep odd hours.
Waking up at 3-4 am is not bad, I can go back to bed, not always to sleep. I am quiet during the daytime unless laughing with one of my grandkids who are visiting. Even then we obey the to “10 pm to 8 am be quiet” rules.
I’m never sure of anyone’s schedule except when I hear someone snoring from above.😄
So yesterday it was official, the guy above works nights! At least I’m not this guy:
So how’s your weekend going?

Today’s prompt: aunt, sincerity, butter

Well Gerry, what do you think?
I think Aunt Gilda will be shocked!
Really? I thought tattoos were accepted by everyone these days.
A small one maybe, but look at it, covers your whole neck!
The options were my choice. It’s like a comfortable permanent necklace.
In all sincerity I have to say I think it’s beautiful, but you know what she’ll say, watch out! Of course you could butter her up before you take off the scarf, gift her a favorite treat, Godiva chocolate.
I would, except I can’t afford it. I spent all my money on the tattoo!

Some say they’re old or used
I think they must be confused
When it comes to my lineage
My relatives are truly vintage.

My mom on the left, my aunt on the right🥰

About this word, the pre position
As it is
Seems relatable to the young
What we know as a pre
What position do we seek?
Did it change the rest of your sentence
Or is it just right the way it is?
