1,001 Days of Making a Better Me

 I wasn't sure which movies to pick for this task.  I've seen a couple movies that were released that year before, but most of them I didn't even really know much about.  So as I was looking through the list, I decided to go with a Bond film.  The Man with the Golden Gun  wasn't one I'd watched before, but I am familiar with the franchise.  I don't know if I'd seen any of Roger Moore's Bond before, so there was that interest. I'll freely admit that this wasn't my favorite Bond film.  There were bits that felt a little too silly.  And my brain kept wanting to make Samantha Bond be the one playing Moneypenny.  I was warned by some that it was one of the weaker outings though, so I'm not sure how much of that is coloring my outlook of the movie. It was nice to see a young Christopher Lee as Scaramango, and Hervé Villechaize as Nick Nack.  And Clifton James stole every seen he was in as J.W. Pepper.  I may have to watch Live and Le...

 Hello followers!  I'm sorry that I haven't been updating for the last couple of months.  I've still been working toward completing my 101 in 1001 but I haven't been very good about updating things.  I'm blaming the holidays and trying to get up to speed with Uber deliveries. So, where am I with things?  Well, there are a few things checked off as finished. I sent out some Christmas cards this year.  I asked my friends who wanted one and sent out about 5 or 6.  I already had stamps so that helped a lot.  I hope I keep this up next year.  I also am official down by 10 pounds.  I started at 225 and now I'm at 215.  I'm hoping that walking will help bring those numbers down even more. There are also several things in progress.  I've asked friends to suggest books for me to read and have gotten a good selection of books on the list.  I'm in the midst of reading the first book that was suggested, Wicked  by Gregory Maguire...
