Since My Last Post...

    Since the last time I posted (a little over a year ago!), so much has happened in our family. I moved to a different department at work with more normal work hours. I now work 8 am to 5 pm with an hour lunch. I typically use my lunch hour to eat at my desk and then read or knit for the remainder of the hour. 

    Two of my children graduated from college (one had already finished). My oldest son completed his Master's Degree while my daughter completed her Bachelor's Degree. He is currently looking for a teaching job, and she is going to Graduate School in the fall. My son who had already finished school has a job that he loves and where he plans to make a career. I pray even more for my children now than I did when they were small! 

    My husband and I have been making date nights a priority as many weekends as possible. We try to go to a new to us restaurant once a month while grilling out the other weekends. Afterwards, we either go to a bookstore or watch PBS shows that we have on the DVR. Our current favorite shows are "Death In Paradise" and "Unforgotten". 

    My daughter and I really enjoy going to our local cinema for the Turner Classic Movies showings of vintage films. We recently went to see the 70th Anniversary showing of "The African Queen". It was so good! My grandmother told me that she and one of her sisters went to see it at the cinema when it came out originally!
