Pacakage arrives and a movie -

Yesterday my package for my Birthday arrived from my SBBC partner Elanor -

I am really excited and it is sitting there waiting for Saturday to be opened!!

I am also almost finished with the Gift-a-way present (see post for 9/26 - there is still time to sign up!) I am stitching up. It is something I wanted to stitch for myself and what better occasion than for a present for someone else - I really do enjoy making things and sending them out into the world - it is what makes all this stitching not only relaxing but fun - at least for me!!

The Christmas cactus is just about finished with her blooming so I think this weekend I will do some splitting and replanting AND get together the cuttings for you that asked
- I think those will go out next Tuesday also.

Last night the movie was "Possessed"- 1931 with Joan Crawford and Clark Gable - Joan made another movie in 1947 called Possessed but the two movies are nothing alike.
Last nights movie was pretty good and Joan looked great!!
- it was a very pre-code movie - but it all worked out in the end -
if you like Joan and Clark this is a real must see movie.

Thanks for stopping by!!

Take care,
edgar

  1. Aren't you good not to open your birthday package until the actual day?

  2. I don't think I could let that package remain unopened until Sunday... ;-)

    Despite the whole "Mommy Dearest" thing (of which I'm not real convinced), I do like Joan Crawford. I've only seen a few of her movies, though. And I really like Clark Gable...I read a bio on him and I could hardly put it down.

    Which reminds me...I got into a discussion with someone who didn't believe that Gable and Crawford had ever had an affair. Her reasoning...she didn't like Crawford and chose not to believe that Gable would have ever wanted anything to do with her. *rolling eyes*

  3. You're actually going to let it sit there until your birthday? Well, you're a stronger person than I am :o)
