The Homecoming and Paddington Bear...

With the ladies happily enjoying a wonderful trip to Tennessee, it allowed me a moment to watch a current or semi-current movie. I am usually scared out of my mind at these new movies with their HD quality visuals and indecent amount of violence, i.e.. Captain America and the Hobbit{LOL}. I was intending to watch Paddington, since it first came out. It took 3 tries for me to wade through it, for laughing and falling asleep.

I think it was made for me; a simple plot and limited and careful use of violent activity. Truly a G-PG rated movie and it motivated me to make jelly out of the crates of strawberries that we had in the freezer from last year. When the girls came home last night we watched it together and then took it back to the box and maybe we will buy it so I can plan out a half hour family motivational movie time for myself, from time to time.

My collards also got cooked and my carrots got juiced and I blame Paddington for those accomplishments, also. We used to sit with the girls and read Paddington as a children's book and now that we are all grown, the movie is a reminder of those delightful carefree;) days. I giggled and cheered greatly when I saw last year that Paddington was included in the Macy's Day Parade as a float. I do hope that they would consider Corduroy for another delightful bear float for the Christmas season and then maybe, I would schedule a yuletide New York visit... Dreaming again....Love you. Jayne
