“FACEBOOK LIVE DAY”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

……………………..On December 9th, at noon, Cathy and I posted a “FACEBOOK LIVE SHOW” from my home……but…..the day started with me picking Cathy up from the train station. She came from her home in PA. She decided to train it instead of driving, because of the impending storm. As I sit here typing the storm is raging outside of my window….so she made a wise decision!!!! We went back to my home where I had all of the trays of jewelry lined up for us to edit for the show. Once we decided what we would show we made ourselves ready…..We promptly started at noon, and the show was approximately 1 1/2 hours long…….I hope you enjoyed it, and it wasn’t too long. I’d hate to bore anyone. Cathy kept spinning her finger in the air giving me the signal to “MOVE IT ALONG”!…..After the show I made appointments, as per Cathy’s request, to go for manicures and pedicures. The shop is near my home and Aaron owns it…..She’s waving at me! Jac took me there years ago, and it became our ritual….EVER man needs a professional manicure and a PEDICURE!! Kim, photo on the top row, used to always take care of Jac, but now she’s mine!….Cathy and I both fell asleep…it was so relaxing!… Then back home to get ready for our dinner out. I took Cathy to a French restaurant in Old Greenwich, in CT. called………”LE FAT POODLE”……..It’s a beautiful small restaurant, but it was packed, and for good reason…..The food was manifique!….We split a mushroom truffle ravioli dish that was incroiable!!!…..I had a Filet Mignon with pepper corn sauce, and  side dishes of a  roasted potato that reminded me of a potato pancake, and roasted asparagus……superb!…..Cathy had red snapper that looked fabulous, and she said in was scrumptious!…..We washed it down with the French version of Prosecco. We were too full to have desert, so we both had an espresso…..Afterwards, we took a stroll down the main street of Old Greenwich to look in the shop windows. The walk did us good! Then I took Cathy for a short drive around Old Greenwich so we could see the marvelous old houses in the Christmas finery!…..They do it well!……Then home…..We watched a new Agatha Christie movie with Kenneth Branagh called “A Haunting in Venice”. It had a great caste, but the movie was ho hum. Actually, both Cathy and I fell asleep. Cathy did wake up before the end so she filled me in on who did what. I feel no need to watch it again though I love seeing Venice. If I feel the need to see Venice I’ll watch the 1955, David Lean movie “Summertime” with Katherine Hepburn and Rozanno Bracci. Best film ever depicting what Venice looks like……..The we went to bed, and this morning got up early and went for breakfast…..I then took Cathy to the stain station and off she went…..Her and her husband Jim will stop by on the 29th on their way to visit her daughter who lives in New Haven…..A nice visit I’m looking forward to.

………………..All good things must come to an end……….The visit was over and it was time for the girls to depart…..After having a few cups of coffee in the “gathering room” to revive ourselves from the night’s festivities….and the wine!….it was time to pack the car. All of the clothes had to be brought down from the third floor and laid out flat in the back of the car….no easy feat!….Then it was time for them to leave for their three hour trip back to PA…..with horns BLARING!…….I already can’t wait for their next visit in the spring!……It’s going to be a long winter!!!!
